Ying Wa Girls' School, Secondary school in Central and Western District, Hong Kong.
Ying Wa Girls' School is a secondary institution located on Robinson Road in the Mid-Levels neighborhood. The school educates around 1,000 female students through instruction in both English and Chinese languages.
Helen Davies from the London Missionary Society founded this institution in 1900 as a residential school, later expanding to include a secondary section in 1915.
The school follows English as the Medium of Instruction policy while maintaining Chinese language education, preparing students for local and international academic paths.
Students wear a traditional blue cheongsam uniform as part of daily school life. School activities are organized through five houses, each named after former school leaders, creating separate communities within the institution.
The Student Association was established in 1949 and stands among the earliest student representative bodies in Hong Kong schools. This early tradition of student involvement shaped how the school operates today.
