At Zhuhai International School, student life is thoughtfully designed to complement and enrich our academic offerings. We believe that learning extends far beyond the classroom; therefore, we offer a wide range of co-curricular and afterschool activities that encourage exploration, creativity, and personal growth.
Students participate in language clubs, experiential camps, and leadership opportunities such as Student Council, where their voices and ideas help shape our school culture. Furthermore, these programs foster a sense of belonging and agency, empowering students to take initiative and contribute meaningfully to our learning community.
Furthermore, our school is equally committed to student wellbeing. Through dedicated support systems and inclusive programming, we ensure that every student feels safe, heard, and valued. As a result, students develop not only academically, but also socially and emotionally—preparing them to thrive as lifelong learners and responsible global citizens.
Student Life at ZIS is a dynamic and caring environment where students connect, lead, and grow. It reflects our core values and reinforces our commitment to excellence in all aspects of education.

At Zhuhai International School, learning is dynamic and extends beyond the classroom. Every Monday, classes pause during the final period for co-curricular clubs and activities, where students pursue interests or challenge themselves to stay curious, active, and creative. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, students also join sports, STEM and creative explorations, or outdoor education centered on sustainable living. These programs foster personal growth, teamwork, and a love of learning—enriching the student experience and strengthening our commitment to holistic education and global citizenship.
Experiential Learning
Week Without Walls
Week Without Walls at Zhuhai International School is an integral part of our experiential learning approach, designed to extend student learning beyond the classroom and into the real world. Through thoughtfully curated journeys across diverse regions, students are encouraged to apply classroom knowledge in authentic contexts, deepening their understanding of global issues and local cultures.
This program is intentionally designed to allow students to explore themes such as sustainability, equity, and community development. By engaging with these global challenges, students contribute to a shared vision of peace and prosperity for people and the planet—now and for the future.
At ZIS, Week Without Walls is embedded within our formal curriculum and reflects our commitment to lifelong learning, global citizenship, and student agency. All students are encouraged to participate, as these experiences foster personal growth, intercultural understanding, and collaborative problem-solving. It is a time for students to make meaningful contributions, develop new skills, build friendships, and have fun—all while living out the values of our school community.
Language Clubs
Speaking Many Languages, Connecting Global Minds
At Zhuhai International School, we believe that learning languages is a cornerstone of global citizenship. Therefore, we offer students the opportunity to maintain their home languages while also exploring new ones such as French, Spanish, Japanese, German, and Korean.
These clubs provide a supportive and engaging environment where students can build fluency, cultural awareness, and confidence in communication. Furthermore, our language programs are designed to be accessible and enjoyable, making language learning more natural and rewarding than ever.
Through these experiences, students expand their worldviews and strengthen their connections within our diverse international community.
Student Support Services Empowering Every Learner to Succeed with Confidence, Care & Purpose
At Zhuhai International School, we are deeply committed to supporting the social, emotional, and academic wellbeing of every student. Our Student Support Services team includes dedicated specialists who provide personalized care through intentional programs such as our Homeroom program and Care Week, fostering a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment.
From Grade 8 onwards, students begin working closely with our University Counselor, alongside their families, to explore pathways to tertiary education. In a rapidly evolving global landscape—where future careers may not yet exist—our guidance equips students with the skills and confidence to navigate change and make informed decisions.
We take pride in supporting students in applying to their first-choice universities, including many of the world’s top institutions. Through a holistic approach, we empower students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally, preparing them to lead with purpose and resilience.
