Heep Yunn School was established in 1936 as an amalgamation of two existing Church Missionary Society institutions, the Fairlea and the Victoria Home & Orphanage. The name of the school, "Heep Yunn", means the union of the two schools through the grace of God. Heep Yunn School continued operating as a Sheng Kung Hui grant-in-aid school for girls until 2012, which the school opted for the Direct Subsidy Scheme instead. Two buildings of the campus of Heep Yunn School are listed as Grade III historic buildings by Hong Kong's Antiquities and Monuments Office, the Main Building and the St. Clare Chapel.

The five houses are named after the school name. • House • Heep • Yunn • Chung • Hok • Hau

The school has over 20 school sports teams, four choirs, three orchestras, debating teams in both Chinese, Mandarin and English, an active drama group and team and over 60 other co-curricular programmes relating to languages, humanity studies, visual art, science, dance, community services and leadership training. The school holds a student-led fun fair every year on the third Sunday of January, where students build stalls from scratch and design games for the public to raise funds.
