The new secondary students were led by the Secondary Director and homeroom teachers to understand the school culture, to preview the student handbook, and to familiarize themselves with their classrooms. Everyone can’t wait to start the new school year!

THIS Principal Ms. Fang Yan first extended a warm welcome to new teachers, students and parents to the Tsinghua family and sincerely congratulated everyone on becoming a member of Tsinghua International School (THIS)! Also, she welcomed back all the returning students and teachers, as they set sail on a new year of academic adventures rooted in the solid century-old foundations of Tsinghua.

In this regard, the school sincerely expresses its gratitude to everyone.
Looking forward to the new school year, Principal Fang Yan also put forward three expectations for every student. First is the worldwide integration of multicultural essence and cultivation of an inclusive spirit. Next is the historical integration of inheritance and innovation, and cultivation of the spirit of humanity and innovation. Thirdly, in terms of the genetic inheritance of Tsinghua, THIS integrates the characteristics of THUHS, spirit of Tsinghua University and qualities of an international pedagogy, and cultivates a unique spirit of leadership.
Finally, Principal Fang concluded that she will always be the strongest ally for THIS, and do the best to create more opportunities and lead the development of THIS. In this new school year, let’s look forward to a bright future together!
