Our beloved Boarding House has once again seen its most popular night of the year last Tuesday as our annual Spooky Trick or Treating evening took place. Many thanks to our extraordinary Boarding team for the organization and to our Year 12 for the coordination of the “Nightmare Hall” and the pinata! Special credit to these DSE and IB students for their joint collaboration!
UISZ campus had a rather quiet and calm week this week as most of its students were active and away in their respective trips in Hong Kong, Yangshuo, Qingyuan and Beijing. We also had our IBDP Year 12 students analyzing water in a nearby pond for their IB Group 4 (Sciences) project and our little ones in K-Y2 going on a field trip!!!
We spent the week preparing our students for the Week Without Walls that will take place next week in virtually all four corners of Eastern China! We expect to be a wonderful experience for our students in Beijing, Yangshuo and Hong Kong, and we are already contemplating other destinations for 2024-2025.
We had a very smooth landing after the holiday with students and teachers happy to see each other again for the last stretch of this first term. You must all be aware that the end of this term is fast approaching and that Parent-Teachers Conference are around the corner
Our school year has now passed its first “checkpoint” with the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Holiday being now at our doors. While we wish each and every one to have a restful and exciting holiday, we also want to congratulate all stakeholders for this fantastic and promising beginning of the year.
We are slowly but surely heading towards our first school break of the year, and not too far from the end of term. Time flies by! Next week, the boarding staff invites all students from Year 3 and up to flexi-board and celebrate the Mid-Autumn festival. Book fast as space is limited!
It was such a pleasure meeting all parents on our campus today! We truly appreciated the interactions made and the connections established on our first meeting of the year! The school endeavors to maintain the contact with its parents and welcome them at any time. This home is our home!
We want to start by expressing our deep regrets for not being able to hold our much-awaited Community day today. After further thoughts though, considering the weather, we are somewhat relieved that we have deferred it again.
We hope that everyone is prepared for a cosy weekend inside. We are still looking forward to seeing all of you this coming Friday for our annual community event. Meanwhile, we have our ECA’s starting this Monday, as well as our Study Labs with teachers.
The 20th academic year of UISZ has started last Monday with a rejuvenated team of highly skilled and enthusiastic teachers and students more than ever ready to enjoy UISZ’s way of living and learning.
