School is also where students learn how to work with other people
SCIE describes four core qualities: Sincerity, Compassion, Industriousness and Enthusiasm. They show up in practical choices: speaking honestly, listening well and doing your share of the work.
College Spirit
Striving to Be the Best
“Do the work in front of you properly,
Do the work in front of you properly,
and keep your own judgement intact.
SCIE prepares students for future opportunities through a challenging international education that pursues the highest academic standards and develops social responsibility, creativity, independence and enthusiasm.
Official SCIE Mission StatementSCIE expressed through four qualities
Sincerity
Be truthful, but never use honesty as an excuse for cruelty.
Follow the principles you know to be right; do not lose yourself merely to win others’ approval.
The House System
Every student belongs to a House
Every student becomes part of one of four Houses: Metal, Wood, Water or Fire. Each House brings year groups together through debates, quizzes, tug of war and sport.
Metal House
Yellow · White Tiger
Wood House
Green · Black Tortoise
Water House
Blue · Azure Dragon
Fire House
Red · Vermilion Bird
House competitions bring students from different year groups together. Along the way, students meet older and younger peers, organise events and learn how to take responsibility for a team.
Student Community
Where interests find a community
Students can join an established club or, with a teacher sponsor, turn an idea into something new. Each semester's ECA Fair is where those communities begin to meet.

The SCIE Community
A place to find your people.
Most of school life is made of small moments
Lunch, rehearsals, club meetings and the cat that turns up by the walkway: these are the details people tend to remember.
Campus Dining
At lunchtime, the first question is what to eat.
A warm meal, something small, coffee or a drink between lessons: lunch is one of the few moments when the pace of campus eases.
01A warm bowl
Rice, protein and seasonal vegetables make a familiar meal between lessons.
02Something small
When a full meal feels too much, there are smaller dishes and lighter options.
03A shared table
Food festivals bring students, teachers and families around the same table.
Milk tea, then back to class
Pick up a milk tea, stop under the walkway for a few minutes, then head to the next lesson. It is a small, recognisable part of the school day.
A lighter pause between lessons
Sandwiches, salads and coffee make an easy lunch when the school day is moving quickly.

Sports Day brings athletics and House life into the same programme. Some students compete; others cheer, organise or photograph the day. Across the year, school teams, sports clubs and House competitions keep physical activity part of ordinary campus life.
