NAIS Pudong Scholarships
Scholarship applications are now open.
Our recent journey to Guizhou was an inspiring blend of cultural exchange, sustainable learning, and community impact, deeply aligned with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The donations of clothing and toys from our school community were warmly received by the people of Dadai and Huanggang villages. These contributions directly supported SDG 1: No Poverty and SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, helping to address local needs. The trip also highlighted SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, as we witnessed the communities’ resourcefulness and the significance of traditional crafts to their livelihoods.
A memorable highlight of the trip was the bonfire celebration in the drum tower of one of the five families. Students and villagers sang and danced together around the fire pit, while the family’s traditional water buffalo stood as a powerful symbol of their enduring agricultural heritage. This event beautifully reflected SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities, showcasing the importance of preserving cultural traditions in a modern context.
Students also had the opportunity to learn about the region’s sustainable rice paddy ecosystem, a practical demonstration of SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production. In this system, fish consume bacteria, ducks naturally control pests while their droppings fertilise the soil, creating a harmonious, chemical-free cycle. This innovative method supports SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being and contributes to SDG 2: Zero Hunger by fostering healthier food systems.
The experience of creating batiks with local artisans further connected us to SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, as students explored the importance of preserving traditional industries through sustainable practices.
This trip exemplified SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, as our school collaborated with WildChina and local communities to achieve meaningful outcomes. It reinforced the value of working together to build a more equitable, sustainable future, while leaving students with unforgettable memories and a deeper appreciation of global citizenship.
Thank you to everyone who supported this incredible journey—it was a celebration of culture, community, and the shared responsibility of caring for our world.
Last Sunday, NAIS Pudong had a Spring Fling filled with laughter and joy! International families from Shanghai gathered on campus and had a wonderful family day with their children and parents on a sunny spring day.
Football season this year was fantastic! This was the first U19 girls team we’ve had in many years, and I’m in complete admiration of many girls in our team giving the sport a go for the first time, bringing football back to life for us!
This week, our school was thrilled to welcome specialist educators from the world-renowned Juilliard School for an inspiring series of dance and drama sessions with both our teachers and students!
From 11 to 13 March 2025, a group of our creative students had the incredible opportunity to participate in a the NAE Regional Performing Arts Festival in Shanghai alongside 11 Nord Anglia schools from across China! With over 475 young artists immersing themselves in drama, dance, music, puppetry, short film making, physical theatre, and more, the festival was a true celebration of creativity and collaboration.
