Xiwai International School Mission Statement
Established at a time when China is taking up the
challenge to become a leading force on the global stage, Xiwai International
School focuses on preparing students not only for higher levels of education,
but, more importantly, for an increasingly boundary–less world. The School thus
aims to cultivate within each of its students a balance of Chinese wisdom and a
global perspective. The School strives to achieve this purpose through the
delivery of quality programs which foster excellence in all areas of a student’s
development, within a stimulating and nurturing residential environment.
Students are encouraged to think independently, creatively and critically, and
are motivated to achieve their potential intellectually, artistically, and
athletically. We take character building as our School’s ultimate value; it
permeates all aspects of Xiwai’s endeavours, and finds its finest expression in
the high level of intellectual and social commitment of each member of our
community.
Xiwai International School aims to be a multi-cultural
community marked by a sense of integrity, and respect for self, for others, and
for the natural environment. It seeks to encourage every one of its members to
reach their individual full potential in all aspects, and to see and go beyond
themselves, regardless of their background. The Xiwai experience hence nurtures
in its members a life-long commitment to develop what is finest in themselves
and others, and create the best for others and themselves.
