The Y.W.C.A. Hioe Tjo Yoeng College (HTYC; Chinese: 基督教女青年會丘佐榮中學) is a Hong Kong secondary school. A coeducational school subsidised by the government, it is in the Ho Man Tin, a residential area in Kowloon, Hong Kong. Established in 1971, HTYC is run under the sponsorship YWCA and was founded with a donation from Hioe Tjo Yoeng and his wife.
The Y.W.C.A. Hioe Tjo Yoeng College (HTYC) is at 6 Sheung Wo Street in Ho Man Tin, a residential area in Kowloon, Hong Kong. [1] Lady Black, the wife of Hong Kong colonial administrator Robert Black, put down the cornerstone signifying the start of construction on 15 October 1963. [2] Lady Black stated at the ceremony, "As Patron of the Hongkong Chinese Women's Club, I am delighted to be here today to lay the foundation stone for the school, for which the members of the Club have worked so hard to show, in a positive way, their willingness to help the less fortunate people in this Colony. This school, when it is completed, will be a symbol of cooperation between all members of the varied community of Hongkong." [2] When construction began, the school was estimated to cost $500,000 to build. [2] After construction was completed, the total construction cost was $2.5 million. [3] Hioe Tjo Yoeng and his wife donated $500,000 to construct the school and $20,000 for school supplies, while the government covered 80% of the construction expenses. [3]
HTYC, a coeducational secondary, became the first school operated by YWCA to be government subsidised. [4] The school had an opening ceremony on 26 January 1972 that was presided over by John Canning , Hong Kong's Director of Education. Ellen Li, who was serving as a Legislative Council of Hong Kong Unofficial Member, became the school's supervisor when it opened. [3] Although HTYC could enrol up to 700 students, it had enrolled 249 students by January 1972 who would attend six Form I and II classes. [3] When the first classes were held in September 1972, there were 280 enrolled students. [5] [1]
HTYC began enroling students in form five in 1974 and started offering A-level courses in 1976. [5] The school in 1985 had classes from form one to form seven. That year, it had 700 students, 33 instructors, and 19 classes. [5] Kwok Sai-man ( Chinese: 郭世民), an HTYC alumnus, became its principal in 2021. [6]
