Assembly by the Digital Education Committee
The Digital Education Committee held a morning assembly on September 16, 2016. Ms Kee Oi Ying and Mr Mak Chun Wai guided students to explore using AI to work smarter. During the presentation, students were introduced to effective AI tools such as Canva Magic Layers and Gamma, alongside useful learning strategies like fact-checking, self-created quizzes, the Feynman Technique, and English-speaking practice.

Furthermore, students were reminded to uphold the values of integrity and responsibility when using AI, underscoring the core message: “Powered by AI, Directed by Mind.”
English Debate Team - A year in review
At Ying Wa Girls' School, the English Debate Team (YWGSEDT) views debate not just as public speaking, but as a rigorous intellectual journey of questioning assumptions and mastering the "process of thought."
During the 2025–2026 academic year, our team stayed highly active across three core areas:
Student Association and Inter-house Elections 2026-27
