Pretoria Chinese School is located in Wingate Park. Pretoria Chinese School was started in 1934 in Boom Street, Pretoria, by the Young Chinese Cultural League and the Chinese Community of Pretoria, in an attempt to preserve their culture and provide quality education for their children, against the backdrop of racism and discriminatory government policy. The land and building were purchased in the name of the Chinese Consulate, as the Chinese were not allowed to hold title to property at the time.

The end of the Apartheid era also heralded new possibilities and challenges for the Chinese Community. As government schools opened up to the Chinese Community there was a drop in numbers at the Chinese School. In 1991, the School Board decided to expand the small primary school to include a high school so that the language and culture could be extended to all who wished to embrace it.
