At Nord Anglia International School Shanghai, Pudong (NAIS), we believe firmly that every child has the potential to become a confident communicator and writer. Across Early Years and Primary, and leading into our Key Stage 3 transition, we utilise the Talk for Writing approach to accelerate our students’ progress in reading and writing and, crucially, in their speaking and listening.
NAIS Pudong students from Year 9 to Year 12 were fortunate enough to take part in the NAE Service Project in the Kilimanjaro area of Tanzania. Annabelle S, Giselle O, Andy Z, Kevin C, Linus L and Ricky Z were joined by Olivia W from our sister school LIS Chengdu, as well as students from BIS Abu Dhabi, BIS Charlotte, BSB Shunyi, Hameline Laie, and Beau Soleil.
We were delighted to welcome Mr Justin Foley to our campus earlier this week to continue our Industry Expert series, a programme which sees specialists from a variety of industries come to talk with our senior students about their pathways and career planning.
The results of our Annual Parent Survey (APS) have been released and we are blown away by the feedback!
On the 10th of Jan, under the theme of Unity & Belonging,5 NAIS Pudong students took part in the TEDx youth event at our sister school at BSB Shunyi. This provided a wonderful opportunity for our students to demonstrate their own creative thinking and confidence in public speaking in front of a live audience which at some point reached nearly 20,000 viewers accessing the live feed.
The summer trekking expedition of the year returned this month when a group of our students headed into the Swiss mountains for the experience of a lifetime!
Following the recent article on AI, in which our Principal shared her thoughts on the technology’s impact in schools, the INSIGHTS team has delved further into some of the challenges and concerns that parents and academic staff now have over AI use by students across the world.
For those who haven’t already read the Nord Anglia INSIGHTS magazine, firstly, may I recommend this wonderful new project to you. As a school, we’ve already published thought pieces on each of the core articles which I hope you’ve also read, and I think it’s important to see how these thought pieces are demonstrable here at NAIS Pudong.
I’m Katya, a Year 12 student at the British International School of Chicago, South Loop where I’ve attended since Year 4. Last month, I was lucky enough to participate in a week-long event at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, made possible thanks to the collaboration Nord Anglia Education has.
