The Grade 5 team is excitedly preparing for PYPx 2024! This year we’re reimagining the concept of “mentors.” Traditionally, a mentor is viewed as a static figure assigned to a student or group for the entire Exhibition process. However, we’re shifting our perspective to see “mentoring” as a dynamic interaction—connecting students with the right person at the right time to address their specific needs, interests or curiosities.

As a result, we are moving away from fixed, pre-assigned mentors. Instead, we encourage students to be risk-takers and explore a more organic, responsive, and personalized approach to mentoring throughout their Exhibition journey. By learning to intentionally and purposefully seek support rather than simply receiving it, we are hoping students will cultivate their ATL skills for growth and independence.

A mentor survey will be sent out before the Chinese New Year break to NIS teachers, parents, and students in grades 8-11.

We look forward to everyone getting involved!

If you have any questions, please contact Tristan, Oskar, Steven or Emmanouil.

Dear all,

Thank you for your efforts in getting all the grades entered in the MB and proofing comments for the first semester reports. Today is the deadline for all proofed comments and all ATLs to be entered. 

The awards list will be posted on Friday morning. Thank you! Sarah

Dear Amazing Faculty,

More and more of our alumni students are returning for a visit to check out our campus and meet with their old teachers. If alumni contact you directly to ask for a meet-up at NIS, please ask them to fill out our Alumni Visit Form first so we can help schedule and prepare the visit as part of our protocols: https://www.nischina.org/community-belonging/alumni/visit.
