Located at Vaha'akolo Road opposite Malaʻekula, Tongatapu, the school stands where Tupou College first stood at the time of its establishment in 1866, then to Nafualu in 1921.

Girls in Tonga first received formal education in Tupou College in 1870, only four years after the institution was established by Rev.

The main purpose of allowing girls to enter the institution was to train them to become good mothers and wives.

The school has eight houses and like Tupou College, are named after major contributors to the Wesleyan Church and the upbringing of Christianity in Tonga.
