Two of the three teams from our school, comprising 13 students in total, advanced to the finals of the CUHK VEX Robotics Competition and won 1st Runner-up and a Merit Prize, respectively, among 100 teams representing 40 schools.

Their dedication paid off as they successfully advanced through two preliminary rounds.
Founder’s Day Service 2026
Our annual Founder’s Day Service was held on March 13, 2026. We were honoured to welcome the Honorary Manager of the IMC (Incorporated Management Committee) and alumna Ms Enian Tsang (曾綺年女士), who shared on the theme “Build My School on Christ 建我學校在基督身.” Ms Tsang recalled how, in the early 1970s, Ying Wa organised a Fun Fair and leadership training camps to broaden students’ horizons and encourage them to explore. She also drew inspiration from two Bible verses: Matthew 7:24, “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock,” and Ephesians 4:15‑16, “Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him … makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love
In Loving Memory of Dr Luk Chiu Kwan Hung (1928–2026)
It is with heavy hearts and profound gratitude that we honour the life and legacy of Dr Luk Chiu Kwan Hung (陸趙鈞鴻博士), a beloved teacher in our Ying Wa community and a towering figure in Hong Kong’s educational history.
Dr Luk was appointed as the Head Teacher of the Ying Wa Kindergarten in the 1950s. At Ying Wa, she established a culture where joy, faith, and dignity were the cornerstones of learning. Long before play-based learning became a global standard, Dr Luk was already planting seeds of knowledge through song, laughter, and stories, believing that a child’s smile was the world’s most beautiful flower.

Hong Kong Literary Festival
On 4 March, our school hall buzzed with curiosity during the Incomprehension Workshop, hosted by the Hong Kong International Literary Festival and acclaimed speaker Ann Morgan.
Participants were invited to set aside the fear of not having "the right answer." By exploring unfamiliar texts written by writers of diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds, they learned to use intuition and curiosity to read more richly and deeply. The workshop beautifully highlighted that reading is a unique, personal journey where we fill in the gaps using our own life experiences. Students thoroughly enjoyed the session, offering thought-provoking interpretations that allowed everyone to see the texts from entirely new perspectives.
