The idea of Victoria Junior College was first mooted in the 1970s by distinguished Victorians such as Mr Wong Hung Khim, Mr Foo Kok Swee and Mr Ong Teong Pin. With their unstinting support and the help of the Victoria Advisory Committee, the proposal written by the late Dr Ong Chit Chung to the Ministry of Education became reality when the college received its first batch of students in 1984 under the leadership of Victoria Junior College’s first principal, Mrs Lee Phui Mun.
