Morning light casts a warm glow over the campus, and a child-centered celebration of growth unfolds as planned!

This Open Day for Grades 1 and 2, centered around the theme “Vitality Empowers Competencies, Childlike Innocence Lights Up the Future,” weaves together highlight segments: “Immersive Classroom Experience, Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) Inheritance, Subject Practice Showcases, and Home-School Heart-to-Heart Dialogue.” This allows parents to deeply witness their children’s confident expression, independent exploration, and joyful growth on campus in half a day, co-creating a warm picture of home-school collaboration.

Every moment holds a delightful surprise of growth, and every scene captures the children’s shining moments.

Piano Music Welcomes Guests

Fingertips Strike Up the Prelude to Confidence

Every note is brimming with youthful vitality, and their confident appearance fully displays the demeanor of young learners, opening the Open Day on a warm, confident note.

Yinhe Moments

Speaking Freely, the “True Self” Shines Bright

This is an “open mic” for free expression, a starting point for confident blooming. You will see how the small figure holding the microphone transforms from shyness to resolve in their eyes, and how their voice grows from a faint whisper to a clear, confident voice.

In the exclusive campus time of Yinhe, we firmly believe that giving children a stage allows them to shine with their unique starlight; giving tolerance to their expression makes confidence the foundation of growth.

Immersive Classrooms
