St. Stephen's Girls' College 3rd generation?
A poster that I found in the HKU Library Special Collections (HKC 951.25 H67 s; produced by Government Printer in 1980s) said that the Girls' College was housed in 6-8 Babington Path from 1918-1924. Is it possible that Rheda was the campus?
The Girls' College was founded in Breezy Point in 1906, moved to Glenwood in 1908. The earthquake in 1918 damaged Glenwood thus it moved to rented premises in Babington Path. Schools reports appearing in SCMP those times were silent on the exact location of the temporary campus.
