In October, following the National Day holiday in 2025, teachers from UIS Guangzhou and Zengcheng campuses came together for enriching Professional Development (PD) Days. While students had not yet returned to school, the campus was already buzzing with intellectual energy and a shared passion for learning.
This Tuesday, October 14th, was a significant day for the Utahloy International School community. We had the distinct honour of welcoming the Director of Admissions, Mr Alan Phua, and the Senior Assistant Director, Ms Ong Hue Sin, from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, who delivered information sessions at both our Zengcheng (UISZ) and Guangzhou (UISG) campuses. In the world of university admissions, where students often travel far and wide to meet with representatives, it is a special privilege when a top-tier institution like NTU brings the opportunity directly to our students.
We are delighted to extend a special invitation to students and families across Guangzhou’s international schools to join us for an exclusive visit from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore – consistently ranked among the world’s top universities.
Our teachers and staff are energized and looking forward to welcoming students back for a successful resumption of school. We can’t wait to see everyone’s smiling faces back on campus and to feel the vibrant energy our students bring to our community.
Choosing your future university is one of the most exciting decisions you’ll make. With so many options, it can feel overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to be. A little preparation will help you cut through the noise and have meaningful conversations that bring you closer to finding your perfect fit.
GUANGZHOU, China, September 30, 2025 – Last week, the Grade 11 class of Utahloy International School (UIS) returned from an incredible five-day educational journey to Beijing, filled with deep historical insights, cultural immersion, and meaningful community service.

The 15th day of the eighth lunar month is China’s Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on October 6 this year. It’s a time to celebrate the harvest by gathering with family and friends, enjoying and delicious fruits and snacks like moon cakes. It’s also a great time to admire the moon, which is at its fullest point of the year. It’s also an period to share stories and knowledge about the moon and space with children.
Under the glow of the autumn moon, the Mid-Autumn Festival returns — a time-honored celebration of reunion, harmony, and gratitude. From September 15 to 19, students at UISG and UISZ immersed themselves in the beauty and meaning of this cherished tradition through a series of interactive cultural activities, thoughtfully designed by their Chinese classes.
