Happy Friday and Character Day! I would like to share a highlight from this week that underscores our school’s growing connections with premier universities in Guangzhou. Yesterday, I had the privilege of speaking at Guangdong Polytechnic Normal University (GPNU), to present to over 80 future teachers and faculty on the power of an IB education. The students and leadership at GPNU are eager to build stronger connections with UISG for future collaboration and exchange of ideas.    

Ultimate Uni-Fair 2025-2026 was wonderful to have so many engaged UISG and UISZ families exploring future pathways with our university representatives; your presence made the event a tremendous success.  

The week culminates in a major highlight: our annual UISG Uni Fair next Friday, the 24th, where we are proud to host nearly 100 universities from over 15 countries around the world. It is a week that perfectly captures our community’s spirit, from foundational learning to future planning. We look forward to sharing it with you. 

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. 

First and foremost, we have been closely monitoring the weather and upcoming typhoon alerts. Out of an abundance of caution and to ensure the best experience possible for our students, the secondary camps for Grades 6–10 have been postponed. We will communicate new dates as soon as they are confirmed. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility as we prioritize the safety of our community.

We have a busy week ahead filled with opportunities to celebrate our students and engage as a community. Next week kicks off Monday with our annual Spirit Week, a fantastic tradition that always brings so much energy and creativity to our campus.

As we close this week, I am filled with anticipation for the next. The coming days offer a powerful snapshot of what makes UISG so exceptional: a deep commitment to academic growth, a thriving arts culture, competitive athletic spirit, and a truly connected community.  

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in the various parent events and meetings this past week. Your energy, insights, and partnership are what make our community so special. We are continually looking for ways to engage with you, and your involvement is crucial as we work together to make this a fantastic year for our students.

What another action-packed week it has been on our campus! It has been wonderful to see our students fully settled into their academic routines, bringing energy and focus to their classrooms. The buzz of excitement around the ECA Fairs was fantastic, and we are thrilled to see so many students signed up for a diverse range of activities. These programs are a vital part of a rich and balanced UISG education.
