Due to travel restrictions currently in place around the world, we have unfortunately cancelled the 2020 Summer Arts with Juilliard Strings programme, which was scheduled to take place in Shanghai in July.

We look forward to welcoming you in 2021 when the programme returns, and in the meantime our Flagship programme in Geneva, which also offers a Strings component, is still taking place. To register your interest in any of our programmes this year or next, please submit your details below.

Our first priority is to make sure that your child is safe, looked after, happy, and supported. We aim to create a home away from home.

House Parents

Our house parents are your child’s first point of contact. They have a wealth of experience in taking care of students who are away from home and are eager to do anything to help make your child’s stay a happy one. House parents will make sure that your child understands the routine, what to do if they need help, give support, or just want a friendly chat.

Accommodation

Students board in modern, well lit and spacious rooms with en suite bathrooms to each shared room. Age appropriately designed common rooms are also accessible to students where they can practice and continue thier learning. We can provide linen, pillows and blankets, but we know these are personal items so students are welcome to bring thier own.

Student Experience 

Students will experience a range of activities designed to encourage personal growth, relaxation, and a summer of fun. Boarding students participate in evening activities such as dumpling-making classes and Tai Chi to offer a taste of Shanghainese culture. Our day-off excursion takes students on a sight-seeing tour, providing them with a deeper understanding of Shanghai.  

Dining

Student co-ed dining halls will serve nutritious, well-balanced meals. High quality ingredients are sourced regionally, and meals are freshly made daily by our catering team with many options to choose from. We believe that healthy meals feed the hungry mind.  

Performing Arts Centre 

NACIS has a state of the art Performing Arts Centre. Music, drama and performance form an important strength of our school and this area has been designed to cultivate and inspire creativity. The 400-seat theatre boasts excellent acoustics as well as professional lighting and sound and an innovative design for use in stage performances.   

The blackbox theatre, orchestra room, drama, and dance studios provide excellent spaces for students to engage in classes and rehearsals. We have multiple music rooms equipped with the latest technology for music and sound production, as well as specialized breakout rooms, perfect for groups or individual practice work.
