Originally opened in 1946 with two classes, the school was rebuilt and expanded to six classes in 1954 with donations from Aw Boon Haw and others.
The school closed in 2008 and has since been converted into the HKJC Lei Yue Mun Plus to promote arts and cultural heritage.
(The school's history and background, copied from the discussion at https://gwulo.com/comment/62627#comment-62627)
I think it would be useful for me to clarify several issues:
The new building is listed under "Works Completed" in the PWD's Annual Report for 1928:
School—“Ying Wah College”—on K.I.L. 1784, Bute Street and Sai Yeung Choi Street, Mong Kok Tsui.
The history page on the school's website says the school moved to new premises on Oxford Road in 1963:
Original building of the St. Thomas Primary School.
The school moved to a new campus where the Cheung Sha Wan Factory Estate was located (between Pratas Street and Tonkin Street).
The original school building on Nam Cheong Street now houses the Hong Kong Institute of Technology.
Notes from Mama: The building initially housed Poo Ai Catholic Primary School (1958-2008) and is now the Caritas Institute of Community Education.
Can anyone tell me anything about this school. I think it is where my grandfather taught from 1922 until invasion of HK by the Japanese. I don't know why he took up work there as he doesn't appear to have any teaching experience/qualifications unless these were gained via WW1 where he did become an officer. I don't know of any connections he had with HK or the school. Nor do I know how rececruitment may have taken place. On one return trip to HK from UK in 1937 he and his family are listed as Crown Agents.
The predecessor of La Salle College, the mother school of Bruce Lee.
Built in 1917, now Windsor Mansion 29-31 Chatham Road South (source)
It's the building north of Lyeemoon Villas (see 1920 map). It was demolished together with the villas in 1929/30 to make way for Lyemun Flats.
