槟城孔圣庙中华学校创校于公元1904年，是马来西亚华文教育发展史上最早开办的正规华文学校之一，而且是最先以华语作为教学媒介语之新式学校，也是唯一海外获得中国清廷政府立案的华校。今日的孔圣庙中华学校是一间拥有小学至大学先修班的完整学校。 

“先辈们在旧世纪的莽莽业林中，历尽难辛，播下了现代华文中小学教育的第一粒种籽，振我华风，迪我民智，吾道诣南方。一百年后的今天，孔圣庙中华中小学的美富宫墙，分别巍峨矗立在青草之巷和易帕森之原，学子四千，弦歌不绝。 华社不应忘记前人所跨出的跬步，它要我们自勖自惕增强淬砺奋发之志，确保华教生机于永远。” - 陈剑红 （摘自槟榔屿孔圣庙中华中小学庆祝创校百周年纪念特刊）

Welcome to Chung Hwa Confucian School's webpage. Chung Hwa Confucian School in Penang, Malaysia, was founded in 1904. It is one of the oldest formal Chinese School in Malaysia and it's the first to use Mandarin as the medium of instruction instead of the Chinese Dialects. 

Chung Hwa Confucian School is the only overseas Chinese school to be sanctioned by the Qing Dynasty Government of China, which officially presented it with royal seals bearing the school's name through its consulate and prominent local businessman Cheong Fatt Tze, who is also credited with being the founder of the school. 

Today, Chung Hwa Confucian School provides primary, secondary and pre-university education. The school celebrated centennial on 15th of May 2004.
