时光荏苒，转眼间惠灵顿杭州校区已走过五年历程。五年前，这座充满活力的校园在萧山科技城诞生，为杭城无数高净值家庭带来了优质的教育资源。如今，它已茁壮成长，成为培养国际化人才的重要摇篮。

5年，60个月，1825天。从2018到2023，从零到近两千名师生，从最初的创立到如今的蓬勃发展，惠灵顿杭州校区历经了无数次的挑战与变革。但是，凭借着全体师生与家长社群的共同努力和不懈追求，学校在教育领域取得了显著的成绩和卓越的口碑。

在这五年里，我们始终坚持“惠贤育能，立德树人”的教育理念，致力于融汇创新，汲取中英教育精粹。我们以世界眼光，打造一流的教育环境，每一个细节都彰显了我们对教育的热爱与执着；我们以国际视野，塑造卓越的教育模式，让学生在博采中华与世界文化的同时，也将仁、义、礼、勇、信的精神融入血液。

与我们共同分享这五年以来的心路历程

郑红云

财务经理

时间如梭，转眼间我在惠灵顿杭州校区已有六年时光了。在过去的六年间我有幸见证了学校每一年的成长，学校逐年增加对校舍和教学设施、图书的资金投入，时至今日我们有了美丽的校园和更为完善的设施。

期间我们共艰克难地渡过了疫情三年，也曾面临着严峻的财务压力，当然与学校共同发展的过程中有艰辛也有快乐，这里有践行惠灵顿价值观的教职员工们，非常高兴能与他们成为同事、成为惠灵顿大家庭的一员！

陈端发

高级对外事务主任

从2016年加入杭州到现在，我慢慢地对于员工幸福指数有了深刻的理解，我在我们学校领悟到最有趣的一个名词是“格局”——当我们想表达不同意见的时候，我们可以尽情表达，管理层非常包容，疫情期间，学校是一个有担当的学校，让员工有一种受到保护的感觉。

作为非教学部门的一员，我定位我们非教学的工作是服务好教学团队，这样教学团队可以更好地专注于教学；对我个人而言，学校教会了何为归属感，没想到一待就是8年，且都是充实的8年，曾几何时，我自诩自己是一个“像风一样的少年”，但惠灵顿让我感受到了归属感。

马梦洁

杭州惠立学校小学部

幸福关怀部主任

作为惠灵顿杭州校区的创校员工之一，我有幸见证了学校的蓬勃发展和教师团队的不断壮大。在这个包容的、文化多元的双语社群中，与一群充满教育理想的老师们合作是一段非常美妙的经历。

当中外方教师团队通过紧密的配合，致力于为学生们提供全面的幸福关怀，同时助力他们的学业和全人发展时，这是非常鼓舞人心的。我感到很荣幸能成为这样一个高效且对自我有高要求的团队的一员，并期待在未来的工作中继续收获，继续突破，与惠灵顿杭州共成长。

数学教研组长

五年转瞬即逝，回首过往，感慨万千。在这里，我学到了很多东西，比如英式教育的精髓，比如与家长沟通的技巧，比如如何与孩子建立良好的互动关系；在这里，我也体会到了学校制度建设、文化氛围营造等方面的关键性。

创校五年，我们经历了太多的困难和挑战，但凭借着对教育事业的执着与坚持，我们顶住了一切压力和阻力。惠灵顿的发展与进步，离不开每一位老师和学生的齐心协力，也离不开支持我们的家长和社会各界的信任和关注。未来，我们将一如既往地坚持提高教育质量，为每一位学生的成长和发展而努力。

这五年，学校经历了许多美好的变化。学校的教学设施不断完善，教学质量也在不断提高。学校为老师和学生提供了更多的机会和平台，让他们能够全面发展自己的潜力和才华。学校的文化和氛围也逐渐形成，成为了一个充满活力和创造力的学习社区。每个老师都有自己的教学风格和理念，他们用自己的方式影响着学生，让他们在学术和品德上都有所收获。

这五年，我一直跟着惠立学校的步伐成长和创新，从教学教师成为班主任，再成为年级组长。我在学校中留下了自己的足迹和汗水，也感谢学校为我提供的发展平台和机会。这些记忆是宝贵的财富，也是我继续努力的动力。

杭州惠立幼儿园

班级教师

我还记得当年入职培训的那个月，起初我非常紧张，这个学校和我过往就职的环境很不一样。但在这样一个陌生的环境中，我却能随时随地听到许多“声音”——校车上，有人会与你分享入职的感受；餐厅里，有人会耐心地介绍餐食；培训期间，校长会突然出现在你身后，一起参与讨论；IT也总能在我们出现电脑问题的时候，迅速帮忙解决问题......

走到哪里总会有人用关切的声音和行动告诉我：你属于这里，我们在一起。

你属于这里

我们在一起

在惠灵顿杭州校区度过的这五年是我人生中难忘而充实的时光。在不断‘内卷’的环境中，我深感庆幸，学校一直给予我充分的自由和时间，去探索和培养个人兴趣爱好，让我有机会追求广泛的学术和非学术爱好。我可以在舞台上展示自己，参加各类体育活动，最重要的是，我能够坚持培养自己的兴趣。

在惠灵顿杭州校区，我被鼓励尝试，也学会了从失败中汲取经验。我明白并坚信会有更多机会等待着我，相信自己将不断进步，取得成功。回首这五年，我不仅感受到自己的独立性增强，更学会了如何自主学习和深度思考问题，培养了批判性思维。

相信对大多数惠立学子而言，在惠立的回忆里都是彩色的，是冒险的，也是愉快的。惠立激励我成为一个充满好奇心的冒险者，对生活充满激情并渴望知识。对无限可能持有open-minded 的心态，这是我用来推动自己前进的信念。

——创校学子，Hanni

五年以来，我感受到这个学校有一种非常包容的文化。在合理的范围内，任何事情都可以发生。得益于这种包容的环境，我所组织的活动都非常顺利地开展了，而这样的活动显著地锻炼了我的领导力。任何首次被尝试的想法都得到了大家的接受，我认为这是惠灵顿杭州校区非常吸引我且非常独特的地方。

——创校学子，Jerry

五年来，我见证了学校的快速发展，从最初的一片荒地到如今的美丽校园，从寥寥数名师生到如今数百名教职工和学子。作为创校生家长，我感到很荣幸和欣慰能够见证学校的成长和进步。

学校的教育理念和价值观也深深的影响了我的孩子，鼓励她发挥自己的特长和兴趣，培养她的独立思考和解决问题的能力，让她在各方面都取得了进步，特别感谢惠灵顿杭州校区为孩子提供的学习机会和平台。

——创校学子Isabella家长

我们之所以选择惠灵顿杭州校区，是因为惠灵顿在上海和天津的口碑都非常好，有强大的师资队伍，外籍师资的比例非常高，能为孩子未来在国外的学习和生活打下良好的基础。

来到学校参观后，我们发现，惠灵顿杭州校区可以算是杭州硬件设施最好的学校之一。最重要的一点是学校的幸福关怀和未成年人保障，惠灵顿公学是英国第一家把幸福关怀列入核心课程的学校，学校的幸福关怀系统非常完备，能确保每一个学生都能身心健康地发展。

founding members of WCCH community

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, WCCH has journeyed through five remarkable years. Founded in the Xiaoshan district, this vibrant campus has evolved into important cradle for nurturing future international talents, providing high-quality education to numerous families in Hangzhou.

Five years, sixty months, one thousand eight hundred and twenty-five days. From 2018 to 2023, from initial establishment to nearly two thousand staff and pupils, Wellington College Hangzhou has faced many challenges and transformations. Yet, through the collective efforts and relentless pursuit of excellence by the entire school community including teachers, pupils and parents, the school has achieved significant accomplishments and gained an outstanding reputation in the field of education.

Throughout these past five years, we have consistently adhered to a progressive educational philosophy encapsulated in our new motto 'Be You. Be More.' We are committed to integrating innovation, drawing on the essence of both Chinese and British educational principles. With a global perspective, we create a world-class educational environment, where every detail accentuates our passion and dedication to education. With an international vision, we shape an outstanding educational model, allowing pupils to embrace both the rich Chinese culture and the diverse cultures of the world, while also instilling in them the Wellington core values of kindness, responsibility, respect, courage and integrity.

Kathryn Richardson

Wellington College Hangzhou

As we celebrate the fifth anniversary of Wellington College Hangzhou, it is essential to reflect on our commitment to a culture of lifelong learning, collaboration, and innovation embodied in our visionary statement, "We Are Learners, Connectors, and Changemakers." We aim to empower our pupils to become confident, responsible and engaged global citizens capable of bridging worlds and contributing to the betterment of society.

Our steadfast vision, since the inception of the school, has been to provide a world-class education that combines the best of British and Chinese educational traditions, fostering academic excellence, personal growth, and holistic development.

The past five years have been remarkable with our pupils embodying the spirit of our motto, "Be You. Be More." This ethos encourages our pupils to embrace their unique strengths and talents while striving for continuous improvement. We believe that authenticity leads to greatness and a positive impact on the world, demonstrated by the talent and dedication displayed in academic pursuits, arts, sports, music and personal growth.

Gratitude is extended to the invaluable support of our parents, Friends of Wellington (FoW) and the wider community, pivotal in shaping the success of our school. As we move forward, we remain committed to ensuring that Wellington College Hangzhou continues to innovate and improve, providing a world-class education that prepares our pupils for the challenges and opportunities of the modern world. We are excited to see what the next five years hold for our school and our pupils, and we are confident that with the support of our community, we will continue to thrive and make a positive impact on the lives of our pupils because each and every day inspires at Wellington College Hangzhou.

Ivey Wang

Principal of

Wellington College Hangzhou

Over the past five years, we have successfully shaped the image of our Huili pupils: they are learners, connectors, and changemakers. They are upright, confident, respectful of others, compassionate, have a global perspective, and the courage to act responsibly. We take pride in each pupil’s progress, every academic achievement, every victory in sports competitions and every successful artistic performance.

A proud tradition, educating for the future. Over the past five years, the school’s facilities have greatly improved, the quality of education has continuously risen, and the academic achievements have been remarkable. We express our gratitude to all those who care for and support the development of WCCH. We extend special thanks to the teaching and non-teaching staff for their hard work and to the parents for their trust and generous support. Our joint efforts and relentless pursuit have resulted in WCCH achieving an extraordinary reputation in the field of education.

Be You. Be More. The fifth anniversary is just the beginning of our beautiful memories, always upholding the original mission of a Wellington College education, working together, we believe that WCCH will achieve even more excellent growth in the future.

The fifth anniversary marks a crucial moment of taking over the baton and racing forward. Looking back at this fifth anniversary, we have invited some founding teachers, pupils and parent representatives from WCCH to share with us their emotional journey over the past five years.

Hongyun Zheng

Finance Manager

For me, it all began six years ago before we opened the doors to our first pupils at WCCH. I have had the privilege of witnessing the annual growth of the school, marked with increased funding for school buildings, teaching facilities and books. Today, we have a beautiful campus with even more comprehensive facilities. During this time, we’ve collectively overcome the challenges of three years of COVID-19 pandemic and confronted financial pressures. Undoubtedly, the process of growing the school has had its mix of challenges as well as joy. Within our community, we have dedicated staff who embody the Wellington core values, and I’m delighted to be their colleague and contribute my part to the Wellington family.

West Chen

Senior Government

Affairs Manager

Since joining WCCH in 2016, before even the first foundation stone was laid, I have gradually come to a profound understanding of employee happiness. One of the most intriguing terms I've learned at our school is "open-mindedness." Here, expressing different opinions is encouraged, we are free to do so, and the management is exceptionally accommodating. During the pandemic, the school showed responsibility, providing a sense of protection for its employees. As a non-teaching staff member, I see our role as serving the teaching team to allow them to focus better on teaching. Personally, the school has taught me a sense of belonging. What started as eight years has become unexpectedly fulfilling, and Wellington has made me feel a true sense of belonging.

Carina Ma

Head of Primary Pastoral

HSH

As one of the founding staff members of WCCH, I have had the privilege of witnessing the vigorous development of the school and the continuous expansion of the teaching team. It has been a truly wonderful experience to work in this inclusive, culturally diverse bilingual community with a group of teachers full of educational aspirations. It is incredibly inspiring when both the international and local teaching teams work closely together, dedicating themselves to providing comprehensive care for the wellbeing of the pupils while also supporting their academic and holistic development. I am honoured to be part of such an efficient team that holds itself to high standards, and I look forward to continuing to achieve and break new ground in my future work with WCCH.

Fiona Qiu

Head of Primary Mathematics

HSH

Five years have flashed by in an instant, and looking back, I am overwhelmed by many emotions. Here, I have learned a great deal, such as the essence of British education, the art of communicating with parents and how to build positive interactions with children. In this place, I have also come to understand the importance of building school systems and creating a cultural atmosphere. In the five years since the school was founded, we have faced numerous difficulties and challenges, but with our dedication to and perseverance in education, we have withstood all pressures and obstacles. The development and progress of Wellington cannot be separated from the concerted efforts of every teacher and pupil, nor from the trust and attention of supportive parents and all sectors of society. In the future, we will continue to be committed to improving the quality of education, striving for the growth and development of every pupil.

Candice Wang

Mathematics Teacher/Grade Leader

HSH

Over these five years, the school has undergone many wonderful changes. The school's teaching facilities have continuously improved, and the quality of teaching has been constantly enhanced. The school has provided more opportunities and platforms for teachers and pupils, enabling them to fully develop their potential and talents. The school's culture and atmosphere have also gradually formed, becoming a vibrant and creative learning community. Each teacher has their own teaching style and philosophy, they influence pupils in their own way, ensuring they reap rewards in both their academic and moral education.

Over these five years, I have been growing and innovating with Huili School, transitioning from a teaching teacher to a form tutor, then to a head of year. I have left my own footprints and sweat in the school, and I am thankful for the development platform and opportunities the school has provided me. These memories are precious wealth and also serve as my motivation to keep marching forward.

Suzy Shi

Early Years

Class teacher

I still remember the month of my induction training; initially, I was very nervous as this school environment was quite unlike anywhere I had experienced before. Yet, in this unfamiliar setting, I discovered I could hear many "voices" at any given moment—on the school bus, someone would share their experiences of joining; in the canteen, someone would patiently explain the meal offerings; during training sessions, the headteacher might suddenly appear behind you to join in the discussions; and the IT staff were always on hand to quickly resolve any computer issues that arose. Wherever I went, people would demonstrate with their concerned voices and actions, telling me: "You belong here; we are together."

You belong here

Fifth

anniversary

We are together

The five years I have spent at WCCH were unforgettable and fulfilling times in my life. Amid an ever competitive educational environment, I feel profoundly grateful that WCCH has always given me ample freedom and time to explore and cultivate personal interests and hobbies, allowing me the opportunity to pursue a broad range of academic and non-academic interests. I can showcase myself on stage, participate in a variety of sports activities and most importantly, persist in pursuing my own interests.

At WCCH, I was encouraged to try and learned to gain experience from failures. I understand and firmly believe that there will be more opportunities waiting for me and believe in my continuous progress towards success. Looking back on these five years, I not only felt my independence growing but also learned how to study autonomously and think deeply about issues, cultivating critical thinking.

I believe for the majority of WCCH pupils, the memories of WCCH are colourful, adventurous, and joyful. Wellington has inspired me to become a curious adventurer, full of passion for life and eager for knowledge. Holding an open-minded attitude towards infinite possibilities is the belief I utilise to drive myself forward.

——Hanni, Founding Pupil

Over the past five years, I have felt a very inclusive culture at this school. Within reasonable limits, anything is possible. Thanks to this accepting environment, all events I have organised have gone very smoothly and have significantly improved my leadership skills. Every new idea that that have brought forth has been accepted by everyone. I believe this is what makes the WCCH very appealing to me and unique.

——Jerry, Founding Pupil

Over the past five years, I have seen the rapid development of the school, from its initial state as a barren plot to the beautiful campus it is today, growing from just a handful of teachers and pupils to so many hundreds of faculty members and pupils. As a parent of a pupil from the founding cohort, I am honoured and comforted to have observed the growth and progression of the school. The educational philosophy and values of the school have profoundly influenced my children, encouraging them to utilise their unique talents and interests, to develop their independent thinking and problem-solving abilities, and to make progress in various aspects. I am especially grateful to Wellington College International Hangzhou for offering my child these learning opportunities and platforms.

——Parent of founding pupil Isabella

The reason we have chosen the WCCH is due to the excellent reputation Wellington possesses in both Shanghai and Tianjin, boasting a strong faculty with a high proportion of foreign teachers, which lays a solid foundation for our child's future education and life abroad. After visiting the school, we discovered that WCCH could be counted as one of the best-equipped schools in Hangzhou. The most important aspect is the school's focus on wellbeing and safeguarding minors. Wellington College was the first in the UK to incorporate wellbeing into its core curriculum, and the system at the school for ensuring the happiness and security of its pupils is extremely comprehensive, assuring the healthy development of every pupil in both body and mind.

——Parent of founding pupil Jayden
