Schools under the leading Asian K-12 education group, Asia International School Limited (AISL), were each conferred a Harrow Seal by Harrow School UK, recognising their remarkable achievements in the pursuit of a holistic Harrow education and denoting the close connection between the AISL Harrow Schools and the 450-year heritage of Harrow in the UK. A momentous occasion worthy of celebration, the Seal Conferment Ceremonies also demonstrated the collective commitment of AISL’s Family of Schools to furthering AISL group’s vision for students in Asia of ‘Educational Excellence for Life and Leadership’.
On 17th, October,at the Harrow Seal Conferment Ceremony for Harrow Hengqin, graced by the presence of teachers, students and parents, all guests witnessed the presentation of a commemorative plaque and a Harrow Seal to the School Head Dr. Max Caruso by AISL’s Founder Mr Daniel Chiu, Chairman Dr Rosanna Wong and the governor of Harrow School in the UK Mr. David Eyton.
Dr. Max Caruso ,Head Master of Harrow Hengqin ,believed that the rich history of this seal is rich in educational wisdom and often coincides with China’s 5,000 years of long and splendid culture. He believed that children who are nurtured in a diverse and harmonious cross-cultural learning environment will possess the qualities of “A Blend of East and West”.
At the ceremony, Harrow Hengqin students presented wonderful musical performances and original poetry recitations, demonstrating outstanding humanistic qualities and self-confidence.
