Become a Lifeguard – American Red Cross
We are offering the American Red Cross Lifeguard Course. Through a combination of classwork (theory) and pool sessions (pratical), you could become a certified Lifeguard.
Students must first successfully meet the pre-requisites and their participation must be approved by the Aquatics Director. The cost is 200 rmb. This will be refunded to the students when they successfully complete the Lifeguarding course.
The class runs every Thursdays from 3.15 -5.15pm. 100% attendance is required. Please bring swimsuit, towel and goggles to every session.
A few spaces are still available. Please contact Ms Lammers for more information.
New ebooks & audiobooks available – Overdrive/Sora
Did you know we have ebooks and audiobooks for kids from age 2-99? The easiest way to get them is to download Sora, Overdrive’s student reading app. It works on all smart phones AND laptops! You simply type Nanjing International School to find our school in the app, then login using your ID number as both your username AND password. Students and teachers are ready to go…parents need to stop by the library to request an account. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Of course, you can always stop by the downstairs primary library with any questions or concerns!

Hello MS/US Cafeteria Users,
Can you imagine a world without cheesy pretzels? Life without salami sandwiches? A day without a chocolate croissant? This horrific post-apocalyptic nightmare may be closer than you think if you continue to leave messes like this in the cafeteria at Break. Clean up after yourself and help to remind your friends; simple as that. We are watching.
Ps. The cafeteria is always a tech-free space during the school day. Thanks!
