Habib Public School is the realization of a dream. Mr. Muhammad Ali Habib, a Banker, Philanthropist and a Planner, realized the need for a good quality school in Karachi, managed by the Muslim community that could provide quality education to all without discrimination. The School started on 7th July 1959 with four blocks of buildings, named, Ahmed House, Ghulam Ali House, Dawood House, and Sharif House. By 1963, in a short period of four years, the School had become one of the high-profile schools of Karachi. The School became well known throughout the country and also internationally. The school became the leading school of the city and the elite of the city turned for admission of their children.Land was reclaimed from the sea and, over a period of 15 years, facilities were added for a second hockey field, a swimming pool, an auditorium, Physics and Chemistry labs and Secondary and Cambridge classrooms.The school has been a full day school from its start, emphasizing on whole-child development and not only classroom learning. The school is known for producing many Olympians and hockey legends, including one of the best hockey players ever; Sohail Abbas. Abbas is the highest goal scorer in the history of field hockey, which speaks volumes for the school's good hockey structure.
