Keystone’s Summer Archway Program From late July, around 80 Chinese and international students had a transforming summer with Keystone’s first-ever Summer Archway Program. Students from Grades 6 to 9 explored the world through a core curriculum of humanities, science, drama, and more. In addition to language acquisition and classroom sessions, students also engaged in activities such as squash, badminton, table tennis and wushu . The Summer Archway Program helped students improve their individual, social, and academic skills collectively and cognitively.
House Business Competition at HISB Thirty-six students from Year 6-10 at Harrow International School Beijing took part in a “Dragon’s Den” style business competition at Wangjing SOHO 3Q. Students had been working in houses to research and develop their marketing ideas and merchandise, finally pitching and presenting their ideas to a panel of judges. The Churchill students won with their original idea of producing a hole punch with an attached reinforcer.
