As the silver galaxy illuminates the warm season and a new journey unfolds toward the light, on the eve of the 2026 Bingwu Year of the Horse, Changchun Nanhu Experimental Yinhe Primary School extends its sincerest New Year greetings and best wishes to: all dedicated faculty and staff who nurture talents with relentless effort; every aspiring Yinhe student who chases dreams and thrives toward sunshine; supportive parents and dear friends who walk hand in hand with us; and leaders at all levels as well as colleagues from all sectors of society who care about and guide our school’s development.

Brand Renewal · Empowered by the Group to Embark on a New Journey

The year 2025 marked a transformative upgrade for Yinhe Primary School.

This year, the school officially renamed itself Changchun Nanhu Experimental Yinhe Primary School, entering a new era of group-based education. This is far more than a name change—it represents an elevation in educational excellence. Leveraging the resource strengths of the Nanhu Experimental Education Group, we optimized curriculum structures, strengthened our faculty, and created aptitude-based, seamless growth pathways for every child, cultivated a solid foundation for each life to flourish, and strived to build a new pattern of integrated education spanning kindergarten, primary, junior and senior high schools—establishing a full-cycle development channel for students from early enlightenment to maturity.

Riding the momentum of group-based schooling, we anchored our strategic vision of “building the school with technology, nourishing it with culture, and invigorating it with vitality,” and we responded to the call of the times—“people’s livelihood as paramount, basic education as the priority.” We hosted the 2nd Jilin Province Future School Innovation and Development Conference, collaborated with Changchun University of Science and Technology and Changchun No.11 High School, conducted in-depth exchanges with our sister school in Hong Kong, and held high-end events such as “Academicians Enter Campus.” These efforts built a solid bridge connecting teachers and students with cutting-edge technology and high-quality educational resources, injected fresh vitality into our “Vibrant Education,” enabling our transformative strides to be even more steady and impactful, and established Yinhe Primary School as an active builder and leader of high-quality educational ecology in the region amid the wave of group-based schooling.

Red Spirit Forges Soul · Party Building Leads Talent Cultivation

The year 2025 was a year when Yinhe Primary School remained steadfast in its original aspiration.

Guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, we firmly fulfilled our core mission of “nurturing talents for the Party and the country,” and integrated the fundamental task of “fostering virtue and cultivating people” throughout education and teaching. We stayed focused and united, earnestly carried out learning activities on the spirit of the Eight-Point Regulation of the Central Committee, actively offered suggestions at the Municipal People’s Congress to speak up for education; recruited outstanding young cadres to the Party to infuse new vitality into the Party ranks; commended exemplary Party members to highlight their responsibilities in the new era; organized thematic speech contests for young teachers to gather the striving power of educators; and guided Young Pioneers to inherit the red gene—allowing our steadfast original aspiration to shine ever brighter in educational practice and laying a solid red foundation for the school’s high-quality development.

These achievements—from successful nomination as a National Civilized Campus to consecutive honors including National Youth Campus Football Characteristic School, National Dodgeball Experimental School, Excellent Organizer of the 3rd National Youth Labor Skills & Intelligent Design Competition, First Batch of Jilin Province Model Schools for Life and Safety Education, and Changchun Snow Kite Race Excellent Organization Award, as well as extensive coverage by China News Service, Jilin.cn, Jilin Education TV Station and other media—are not only high recognition of our educational performance but also a testament to our strong educational strength.

Throughout the year, we developed 19 model lessons, 33 demonstration lessons at all levels and 283 research lessons under the new model, and completed 13 in-depth summaries of subject teaching.
