The school was changed from full-day into AM and PM modes. In 1999, both primary schools resumed full-day education. St. Paul's Co-educational PM Primary School moved to the current site at Kennedy Road, and changed to the present name. The AM school remains at Macdonnell Road and was renamed accordingly. In 2006, the primary schools merged, and the new school was named St. Paul's Co-educational Primary School.

The campus
The campus was in Nam Fung Path in Wong Chuk Hang.The state-of-the-art campus comprises two main buildings, the Cultural Block and the Teaching Block.The two buildings are connected by skybridges and walkways. Together with the landscaped Central Plaza, a sculpture courtyard and landscaped roof terraces, the buildings are integrated with the surrounding natural environment to provide an atmosphere conducive to learning.Since December 2012, the Butterfly Garden has been established in the campus to provide our teachers and students with a splendid outdoor classroom. Many of the plants grown in the Garden provide food and shelter for caterpillars and butterflies while setting up a perfect condition for them to pollinate flowers, thus facilitating their reproduction. Through observing the butterflies and carrying out various educational activities in the Garden, students can have a more in-depth understanding of the natural ecological environment and reflect on the importance of environmental protection.
