CCC Education Sunday 2016
Hop Yat Church, Bonham Road
"Write thy name upon my heart, Jesus, Savior of mankind. Teach me charity unfailing, teach me compassion, Lord, like thine. Endow my soul with loving kindness; make me even as thou art; engrave thine image in my countenance, write thy name upon my heart ….”
With the lyrics of Write Thy Name Upon My Heart by Sally DeFord, our school choir and the women's choir of Hop Yat Church dedicated their angelic voices to God on 18th September 2016 as part of the Education Sunday Service at The Church of Christ of China (CCC). Our girls treasured this first collaboration with the women's choir and were inspired to serve the Lord with humility and devotion.
SA and Inter-house Elections
It is the noble tradition of Ying Wa to provide a platform for students to develop their potential to serve the school and become student leaders. This year a group of 19 enthusiastic students formed a cabinet called "Orenda" and came up with an election slogan "Unearth Your Potential". With their passion to serve their schoolmates, they encourage their peers to step out of the comfort zone and be more actively involved in the community.
An independent team of the Hogben House, "Plumeria", joined the Inter-house election campaign with the proposed cabinet, Nota. Elections were held on 14 September and a united cabinet of the Inter-house Committee emerged.

Opening Ceremony 2016
中國女排訪港 排球隊隊員大開眼界
內地奧運精英代表團訪港期間，英華女校排球隊個別隊員近距離接觸奧運金牌選手，機會難得，隊員欣喜若狂。
2016年8月29日，中國女排出席在馬鞍山體育館舉行的排球公開課，讓香港市民一睹國家隊隊員的風采。英華隊員洪洋洋、何潔霖、易穎芯為香港女子青年排球隊隊員，李韋緰、彭雅望、劉映汝為香港女子少年排球隊隊員，有機會跟金牌選手組隊作賽，從中觀摩學習，獲益良多。現場球來球往，觀眾情緒高漲，掌聲不絕，氣氛熱烈。同學觀賞女排控制球速、飛身救球，扣殺等，可謂大開眼界。是次活動有助提高技術水平，對加強團隊合作亦有啟發，實在是一次十分寶貴的經驗。
