Upon the initial establishment of Chung Chi College, the Founding Fathers endeavoured to select a suitable site for developing a permanent campus. After ongoing inspections by Bishop Ronald Owen Hall (1895-1975), Mr. Au Wai Kwok David (1898-1959), and Dr. Lee Ying Lin (1892-1954), they finally identified a proper site at Ma Liu Shui, New Territories, the current location of the College campus. In 1953, the Hong Kong Government allocated a piece of ten-acre land to Chung Chi for building a new campus. There was a vast land adjacent to the new College campus, which was suitable for the College’s long-term development, and provided a cozy living environment for teachers and students who lived in dormitories. Moreover, it was in proximity to the Kowloon–Canton Railway (now the East Rail Line of the Mass Transit Railway) and Tai Po Road, providing convenient access for day students. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the campus is a serene and graceful cradle for nurturing students. Gazing into the distance, you can see the green lushness of Ma On Shan and the oceanic grandeur of Tolo Harbour, which create an ever-changing yet breathtaking scenery.

Planned and designed by architect Mr. Robert Fan (1893-1979), the new campus had its foundation stone laid in May 1956. In October and November of the same year, all the College teachers and students moved to the new campus and the opening ceremony officiated by Sir Alexander Grantham(1899-1978), the Governor of Hong Kong, was held respectively. The Governor praised the new campus, saying that this site was the most suitable place for building a school among any others. Since then, the College has been dedicated to expanding its campus facilities, including teaching buildings, libraries, dining halls, sports fields, and student hostels. More striking premises were constructed one after another, constituting a spectacular campus for nurturing diverse talents at Chung Chi College.
