At the end of the school year, the Wind House Captains – Clarisse Leong (Year 12), Olivia Choi (Year 12), Stephanie Tiedemann (Year 11) and Tang Tang He (Year 6), organised a House Buddy activity where every student in the school had the opportunity to write a “thank you” card to their unsung hero.

Students sat in buddy groups and wrote cards to our ayi’s, bus drivers, security guards, shifu’s, cafeteria staff, support staff, tech team, school office, school nurse, and many other members of the YCIS Chongqing team who work so hard behind the scenes so our school can run smoothly and safely.

On the morning of June 22, the House Captains gathered the unsung heroes together for a short meeting to say “thank you”.

In many ways, this event demonstrates the positive impact and outcomes of all the work that goes in behind the scenes and in our classrooms each day, that our students grow to become caring leaders who are gracious and appreciative.

“Thank you! See you in August!”
