Award of Junior Choir
Under the baton of Miss Selina Li, our Junior Choir was awarded the first runner-up in the Church Music Group (Foreign Language) in the 68th Hong Kong Schools Music Festival.

Club members were encouraged and empowered, under the guidance of UNICEF Hong Kong, to organize different programmes promoting global citizenship and the rights of children. Also, it was hoped that student leaders could develop their potential through learning and cooperating with each other.

The Nightingale DVD
The 115th Anniversary musical, The Nightingale, won heartwarming applause and raised more than $2 million for the School Redevelopment Fund when it was staged in July 2015. DVD copies of the performance are now available for members of the Ying Wa family to keep as memorable recollection of the meaningful event. The wonderful performance, result of concerted efforts of a team of 200 students and teachers, on stage and behind the scene, is also well worth watching again.

Exchange Programme with Korean students
The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups (HKFYG) invited Ying Wa Girls’ School and Ying Wa College to play host to 38 Korean secondary school students.
The Korean students, 18 Ying Wa boys and 19 Ying Wa girls gathered at our school to play ice-breaking games on 26 February 2016. Then, Ying Wa boys and girls took the visitors on a guided tour of Mei Ho House, Ap Liu Street Market, Dragon Centre in West Kowloon, etc. to introduce the local culture of Sham Shui Po. The Korean students performed modern and traditional dances to express their appreciation. The exchange programme was enjoyable and rewarding for all involved.
