Young Friends Scheme
The 2012/13 Young Friends School Tour came to Ying Wa on 31 October, 2012 and brought our students an entertaining as well as educational performance.
1st Floor Forum
The Civic Education Committee organized a forum on 25th October, 2012 at the Open Playground to provide a platform for students to express their feelings towards the adaptation of school life in the decanting campus. The Christian Fellowship was invited to lead the prayer and hymn singing. All the participants treasured the efforts which were made by teachers in the decanting and redevelopment issues.
Impression of the Western District
So Man-yee, Chan Yee-tak and 4 other students participated in the “Our Impression of The Western District” jointly organized by the MTR and the Hong Kong Youth Art Foundation. They learned to explore the life in Western District during the workshops and their art pieces will be permanently displayed in Sai Ying Pun and Hong Kong University MTR Station.
Paintings to Ying Wa
Mr. Lee Sung Kwan, our retired Laboratory Technician, donated four of his oil paintings to Ying Wa, including three portraits of our former principals: Miss Davies, Miss Hutchinson and Miss Silcocks.
Art Creation for MTR Stations (Central and Western District)
A group of senior form students participated in a meaningful art project organized by the MTR Corporation Limited. Participants drew and took pictures of the Central and Western District and their artwork would be used as decoration for the new Sai Ying Pun, HKU and Kennedy Town MTR stations. One participant, Chan Yee Tak, revealed in an interview that having new MTR stations would lead to a lot of changes in the neighbourhood. On one hand, the MTR would bring convenience to people. However at the same time, many old buildings would be demolished. She hoped that her drawings could capture the district artistically.
