A MESSAGE FROM THE HEAD OF THE SCHOOL

A warm welcome to Dongzhi Manor School!

​

Dongzhi Manor School is a community where education is rooted in heart, inspired by nature,and empowered by global vision.

 

As the Head of School, I am deeply proud to lead a learning community founded in 2014,committed to holistic education that nurtures the mind,shapes the character, and honors the individuality of every child. Strengthened by academic rigor, and rooted in Chinese culture, ourmission is clear: to cultivate global citizens rooted in China, with international vision and compassionate hearts.

 

At Dongzhi Manor, we believe education is not only about knowledge, but about inspiring children to explore,create, and grow into the best version of themselves. Our carefully designed campus serves as the "third teacher", supporting flexible, inquiry-based, and personalized learning. We embrace small-class, high-quality education. Therefore, every child isseen, heard, and supported.

 

Our curriculum balances national standards with international innovation. Through project-based learning, STEAM, arts, sports, and personalized growth planning, we help students build critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and resilience — the qualities that will allow them to thrive in a changing world. We value courage, humility, integrity, and honor; we teach children to care for themselves, respect others, and take responsibility for our shared planet.

​

To our new families joining us: you are not just enrolling in a school — you are becoming part ofa warm, supportive, and forward-thinking home. Together, we will walk alongside your children, encouraging them to run in nature, wonder in art, think boldly in exploration, and shine bright in the world.

​

I look forward to welcoming each of you to our campus, celebrating growth together, and witnessing our students become thoughtful, capable, and kind leaders of tomorrow.

​

With warmest regards,

​

Dongzhi Chen
