St. Mary's Canossian College (Chinese: 嘉諾撒聖瑪利書院;demonym: St. Marian) is a Catholic girl's secondary school in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It was founded in 1900, and is situated at the junction of Austin Road and Chatham Road South. Other Catholic buildings, like the Rosary Church and the St. Mary's Canossian School, are adjacent to the school.
The school, known as St Mary's School in the past, was originally aimed at educating the Portuguese girls living in Kowloon (Hong Kong). However, this gradually changed, and as for now, 98% of the students are Han Chinese.
Students are taught by Sisters and experienced teachers.

Famous quotes containing the word college:
“Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellows. The really diligent student in one of the crowded hives of Cambridge College is as solitary as a dervis in the desert.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
