St Ignatius School Update

I noted the redevelopment of the lovely old building that was formerly St Ignatius School out along Hungjao Road (now Hongqiao Road) by Siccawei (Xujiahui). However, it wasn’t clear when I was last there in May to what purpose the building was to be put when completed. I, rather snidely, suggested another mass of luxury brands. But it appears it will be used as a school. Nearby in a new building is Xuhui School and now a sign has appeared near the gates of the old  St Ignatius rather pompously announcing that it will be Le Lycee Xuhui, don’t ya know. Anyway better education of some sort than more D&G.
