Delia Memorial School (Hip Wo No. 2 College) (Chinese: 地利亞修女紀念學校(協和二中)) commenced its service in 1984,[3] operating under the management of Delia Group of Schools. It joined the government Direct Subsidy Scheme in September 2000 and became a non-profitable organization[3] located at Kwun Tong, Hong Kong.[2] It is a full-time coeducational grammar school offering S1 – S6 curricula and recommending qualified candidates to sit the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination.[3]

Since 2018[edit]

Starting from 1 September 2018, the school's name has been changed from Delia Memorial School (Matteo Ricci) to Delia Memorial School (Hip Wo No.2 College). The new principal and her colleagues bring new initiatives to the school. School promotes "Experiential Learning" and they believe that teaching and learning should not be just confined in classrooms; instead, they advocate experiential learning strategies in the curriculum.

Secondary One Admission[edit]

Admission to the school is based on the students' academic result, conduct, extra-curricular activities (ECA) performance, school's remarks and admission interviews. All aspects weigh equally.[1]

Extra-curricular/co-curricular activities[edit]

The school encourages students to engage in extra-curricular activities and community services actively and they put great efforts in nurturing their interests in sports, arts and culture. To cope with the development of the OLE, the school has organized more than 30 school clubs and interest classes of different respects, including academic and non-academic areas, of which the students are free to choose from. Besides, whole school functions such as "Life wide learning exhibition", "Talent Show", "Sports day" and "Swimming Gala" are organized annually for the holistic development of students.[1]
