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.
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.

UISG hosted a swim meet on the 19th September with invited guests, Clifford International School (CIS) and Lady Eleanor Holles (LEH). The purpose was to introduce our swimmers to some early season competition and build stronger relationships with schools of a similar standard. The setting at the pool was amazing, the weather played its part and both objectives were achieved.
At Utahloy International School Guangzhou (UISG), we believe the best choices come from direct connection. That’s why we are proud to host the 2025 Guangzhou University Fair right here on our campus this October.
I am delighted to share reflections from a recent visit to St John’s College, Cambridge, where I was joined by Matthius Dorzapff and Dean Hoffman to explore ways to elevate Utahloy International School Guangzhou (UISG) as a global leader in education. The rich exchange of ideas, particularly Matthius’s insightful advice, has inspired a clear vision to strengthen our academic programs, foster school spirit, and deepen our cultural engagement through initiatives like the Edinburgh Festival 2026.
Cheers to a successful Spirit Week! It was wonderful to see the students come together, enjoy the daily themes, and spread cheer throughout the week. From Mismatched Clothes on Monday to House Color Friday, the students wore their spirit proudly and showed they are truly UISG Wolf Proud.
Creativity and self-expression come alive through the unique marks and textures found in fiber art. This year, our Primary and Early Years students celebrated International Dot Day by connecting their individual marks using the traditional technique of weaving.

Last week, DP Visual Art students took an inspiring trip to the Shenzhen Sea World Arts and Culture Center to see the original works of Frida Kahlo. Visiting this exhibition gave the students an opportunity to connect their highly theoretical coursework with the life and work of a real artist. Students viewed Frida’s personal possessions and clothes, read her diaries and letters, and felt the connection between personal experience and artmaking. Students learned about Frida’s cultural and historical context by viewing archaeological artifacts from Mexico. They also gained important insights about what goes into curating an exhibition.
