As you walk through the primary school you are immediately struck by the extraordinary potential of the children. At BISS Puxi, our British teachers work with students and parents to create truly personalised learning plans, helping each student find their passion and channel their seemingly limitless energy into being the best that they can be.
Cédric clearly has a passion for the Chinese culture and language. He is taking every opportunity to build up his understanding and also develop confidence by performing for outside audiences.
Cédric’s effervescent personality allows him not only to enjoy and understand what he learns, but also to share it. He clearly wants to share his passion for Chinese culture – with everybody. He explores it with his teachers and friends at school, explains it to his parents and even to unsuspecting taxi drivers. It’s an opportunity to share and it’s a great way to practise his Chinese!

When I asked Cédric why he enjoyed Chinese he said that its fun and that he loved the songs. The wonder of culture, literature and the arts is that it gives us an opportunity to take our minds to a different place and to enjoy a moment that brings us joy, excitement or even peace.
The group will be performing ‘The Ode for a Goose’ The BISS Puxi Temple Fair on January 26th. The BISS Puxi community will be celebrating the Chinese New Year of the Pig with a host of Chinese culture related activities for everyone to enjoy.

I think Cédric would be happy if I shared ‘The Ode to a Goose’ with you here. It’s a wonderful short ancient poem that can be enjoyed by both young and old.
‘The Ode to a Goose’
鹅、鹅、鹅，
(é é é)
曲项向天歌。
(qū xiàng xiàng tiān gē)
白毛浮绿水，
(bái máo fú lǜ shuǐ)
红掌拨清波
(hóng zhǎng bō qīng bō)
English Translation:
Goose, goose, goose,
You bend your neck towards the sky and sing.
Your white feathers float on the emerald water,
Your red feet push the clear waves.
Earlier this year, I had the incredible opportunity to travel to Orlando, Florida, to participate in the Business Professionals of America (BPA) National Leadership Conference (NLC) - an experience that challenged, inspired and rewarded me in unforgettable ways. From the Shanghai Regional Round to the Chengdu National Round, and finally, just a week ago, the Orlando Global Round, our BPA journey over the past six months has been unlike anything we’ve ever experienced.
In a world where art often serves as a mirror to society's most pressing issues, Julia, a remarkable Year 12 Visual Art student, has taken a bold step to shine a light on a cause close to her heart. Her latest exhibition, titled To See the Unseen, was on display this weekend at the vibrant M50 art district, showcasing her captivating paintings alongside the work of a group of talented artists
On Saturday 9 May, students from our three Nord Anglia schools in Shanghai - NAIS Pudong, BISS Puxi and NACIS - came together for a one-day STEAM Bootcamp, hosted at BISS Puxi. It was a brilliant opportunity for students in Years 7–9 to connect across campuses, take on hands-on challenges, and apply their creativity and problem-solving skills in exciting, real-world contexts.
AI is revolutionising education. And at BISS Puxi, we’re embracing the benefits. Used effectively, educational AI tools can create immersive, innovative, and truly personalised learning experiences for our students. They can also streamline administrative processes, freeing our outstanding teachers to focus on what really matters – inspiring creativity and critical thinking in our classrooms.
