The WASHK Student Experience

“Studying at Wycombe Abbey has prepared me for my upcoming entry to Cheltenham Ladies’ College in the UK. They helped me prepare for topics in the British curriculum, in particular, in Maths and Science. I have met good friends and am grateful for the teachers who have been helpful and supportive.”

– Mia Wong, Alumna

“We wanted somewhere that provided an excellent, all-round, UK-based education that gave us continuity for our son, since he grew up within the UK education system prior to our relocation to Hong Kong. WASHK creates a very positive learning environment for every child, regardless of their background, and a well-rounded education that prepares students extremely well for the next phase of their education journey.”

– Sean Dolphin & Georgina Farrell, Parents of Year 7 Pupil

“We’ve seen remarkable growth in confidence and independence. Our child has become more self-motivated academically and more willing to take on leadership roles. Personally, she has developed stronger resilience and a greater sense of responsibility. She enjoys the supportive relationships with teachers and the collaborative atmosphere among peers.”

– Abby Shek, Parent of Year 13 Pupil 

“WASHK taught me academic skills, independence, bravery, and skills I will use in higher grades or in the real world. I made so many good friends in my time at Wycombe Abbey and made memories I won’t forget.”

– Esther Sampson, Alumna

“One thing our daughter loves most about her school day is spending time with her caring and supportive teachers. She feels that her teachers understand her, listen to her ideas, and always encourage her to do her best. Their kindness and patience make her feel safe and confident in the classroom. Because of this, she looks forward to going to school and enjoys learning, participating, and trying new things each day.”

– Joe and Cicillia Poon, Parents of Year 3 Pupil

“Our decision to enrol our son at Wycombe Abbey School Hong Kong has been deeply rewarding. The school has provided an exceptional foundation, allowing him to grow socially, excel academically, and develop the confidence to take the stage fearlessly. Wycombe Abbey successfully fosters a safe, vibrant, and engaging learning environment where children can truly enjoy their educational journey.” 

– Sanja Velkova Sabato and Luca Sabato, Parents of Year 9 Pupil

“My teachers supported me no matter what. My friends encouraged me. I pushed myself out of my comfort zone to be more social, confident, and talkative.”

– Si Wei Ow, ALUMNA 

“We’ve always believed that a proper British education would benefit my family and my two sons the most. Our son adapted to Senior School pretty quickly. With more subjects and a faster pace of teaching, his self-study skills were put to the test. He learned to explore independently, identify what he didn’t understand, and find answers through books and online resources, while also exchanging ideas with classmates and teachers.”

— Cynthia Zhang, Parent of Year 10 and Year 8 Pupils

“The teachers go above and beyond by giving open, honest feedback and clearly highlighting the areas where my children need to improve. They’re approachable and proactive, and they work with us to make sure the right support is in place so our children can keep progressing with confidence.”

Deep Vinner, Parent of Year 7 and Year 4 Pupils

“Wycombe Abbey School Hong Kong was such a good experience for me, teaching me skills I will need in my future. It taught me patience, resilience, determination, and self-growth. It showed me how to stay resilient even when I am stuck, and to never give up.”

– Jasmine Fong, Alumna

“We value the small class sizes, sense of community, close relationship and active communication with the teachers, and the focus on more than just core academics—it’s about emotional wellbeing too. This balance has made a real difference for our child.”

– Kevin Lien, Parent

“The teachers and staff really demonstrate that they care about each student’s development. They take time to get to know your child. We’ve received personal emails celebrating successes and staying updated on his growth. Also, the teachers seem to know every child at the school!”

– Rachael Ho, Parent

“I value everything I learnt at Wycombe Abbey Hong Kong. I value the skills I learnt during my iSTEAM lessons the most, as those skills have come in handy at boarding school where I have to solve problems myself. iSTEAM helped enhance my ability to solve problems in creative ways.”

– Belinda Hui, Alumna

“The Entrepreneurship programme has been helpful in teaching my child the fundamentals of entrepreneurship: problem-solving, creativity, teamwork, and decision-making. It’s been exciting to see them learn about real-world business concepts early.”

– Nan Shen, Parent
