Adapting into the New World - Kevin Rabe, YCIS Shanghai '17

Adapting to a new environment, a new culture can be difficult, nevertheless it is a situation so common that each and every one of us may encounter in life.

We are glad to have YCIS Shanghai alumnus, Kevin Rabe, share with us how he adjusted his mindset and how he overcame the difficulties!

“Community is important, it gathers people from different cultural backgrounds but with the same mindset to support each other.” – Kevin Rabe, YCIS Shanghai Class of 2017

Alumni Family Fun Day 2020 Recap

Thank you for the good weather, Alumni Family Fun Day 2020 was successfully held. Under the guidance of our Yew Chung educators, children explored Pamela Peck Discovery Space (PPDS). Little talented “performers” sang and danced on stage while potential “make-up artists” were busy helping adults to make hair and wear make-up at backstage. “Architects” built roads and tunnels. “Adventurers” climbed up and down to overcome obstacles outdoors.

My YCIS Story - Aaron Shea

I studied at YCIS-HK for 13years, enrolling at age two-and-a-half in Kindergarten and stayed until Form 5 (IGCSE completion), which was our highest grade level back then. Yew Chung, as my dear alma mater, will forever be a part of me, evoking deep emotions. My two sons are now also enrolled at YCIS-HK, in the Early Childhood section, so we are truly a Yew Chung Family.
