"The soft and granular snow flowing under the snowboard made me feel like I could do anything." As a young athlete who has shown her talent from a very young age, Eileen Gu's stunning performance at the 2021 Winter Olympics has won her the recognition of the world. Her unique combination of persistence, courage, confidence, love, balance of sports & academics, and open-mindedness has once again left us in awe of the boundless energy and potential that lies within China's new generation.
There is only one Eileen Gu, but there are many stars. In these ever-changing times, learning a host of different and valuable skills and qualities are crucial to developing children, we hope each child is able to find their interest and talent and shine in many different fields in the future.

Hip hop, jazz, ballet and tap, the moment the spotlight is switched on, it is as if the children's lives were given a new soul. The second week with the Winter Olympics musical theme encourages children to fearlessly take to the stage and to let their performing arts talents run wild.
We will use Tianjin Juilliard School's Music Essentials Programme, to create enriching learning opportunities for children in front of and behind the scenes with a professional yet child-friendly performing arts programme. From the design of stage backdrops and costumes to the musical and rhythmic stage show, children's confidence and stage presence will undoubtedly grow throughout the week. This fascinating and fulfilling musical journey is a childhood memory that every child can only dream of, and for the children who join us, will never forget.
English will be the main language of communication during the winter camp. Whether in the classroom or during free exploration time, we will create an English immersion environment to help students achieve a rapid introduction to English as an additional language.
The school's original team of elite teachers will also provide the children with a diverse range of camp activities. Using real life as a backdrop for exploration and learning and integrating transdisciplinary knowledge, the children will be led by experienced Chinese and international educators in an enriching foreign language exploration programme.
Meals and children’s health are always a top concern for every parent. Whether it is our cooperation with a number of leading agricultural enterprises in China in the purchase of ingredients, or the team of caterers and nutritionists carefully chosen for our campus, they will ensure the best food and nutrition for every child joining our winter camp.
Through the precise calculation of dietary nutrition our nutritionists will work together with the kitchen team to create a healthy experience for children with "less oil and salt, controlled sugar and limited fat, and diversified nutrition". In addition to nutritional excellence, our kitchen will adopt a multi-meal system in terms of the number of meals served (i.e. breakfast, morning snack, lunch and afternoon snack will be provided daily). The canteen will provide children with timely energy supplements at different stages of the day, including high-quality fruit, yoghurt, nuts and a variety of Chinese and Western snacks.
Each of our Homeroom, International, Class, and Life Teachers are trained in CPR & AED first aid, and we also have professional round-the-clock medical support to provide our children with the utmost care.
The windmill-like building has been cleverly divided into four blocks to increase the accessibility of the various functional areas and the multiple outdoor areas. The four main blocks are connected on the first floor and form a roof terrace on the first floor, and the four blocks are staggered to create courtyards of varying sizes and functions. These innovative and functional indoor-outdoor buildings will be key to stimulating children's curiosity and desire to explore during the winter camp.
The teachers will make full use of the multi-functional classrooms, outdoor playgrounds, our golf area, our stem lab, our music room and other creative and specialised educational spaces to create more opportunities for the children. With this 'mini city', we believe that the children's teamwork, physical awareness, and exploration will become even more engaged, and this winter their growth will be even more impressive.
In order allow more families from the Greater Bay Area to experience our quality educational offering, our winter camp has a special early bird rate that is valid from now until 1st December 2022.
