Completion date from the school website:

Bishop Hall Jubilee School was established in 1961 to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of the Right Reverend Ronald Owen Hall as the Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Hong Kong, Macao and South China (now reorganized as Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Province). The laying of the foundation stone on 10th December 1961 marked the blessing of God to this school, which was founded in the aftermath of World War II, a time when the number of students in Hong Kong was on the rise.

At the very beginning, the school had to use the campus of Heep Yunn Primary School, as the purpose-built secondary campus was under construction. Our school was then split up into English and Chinese sections, which added up to 396 students and 10 classes in total. When the school campus was completed in 1962, the school relocated to its present address on Oxford Road, Kowloon Tong.
