SMJK Yu Hua Kajang

SMJK Yu Hua Kajang is a secondary school in Kajang, Selangor. It is also known as Yu Hua National Type Secondary School. The school dates back to 1910. In the beginning, it was known as Boon Hua School, and was located on Main Street, Kajang. As is the case with most schools, Boon Hua School was initially conducted in the shophouses in town. Only when it relocated to a permanent plot, in 1918, was it given the present name, Yu Hua School.

The Japanese Occupation during the Second World War was a period of upheaval for the entire country, and Yu Hua School was not spared. Much of the equipment of the school was damaged, forcing the school to close until the war was over.

In the post war period, Yu Hua School experienced increased student attendance, eventually necessitating an expansion. In 1958, the school added a two-storey block and five classrooms. Yu Hua became a national type secondary school in 1962.

Today SMJK Yu Hua Kajang has an enrolment of close to three thousand students, and close to 130 teachers.
