The success of Dulwich Zhuhai over the past 11 years is continuously paving its way in the region, with numerous milestones throughout the first academic year commenced in the new campus.
Congratulations to the first cohort of students graduating from the new campus with a brilliant result of 279 offers from prestigious universities around the world. Good job, Class of 2022! We are sure that you are all gearing up for your new journey after four years with Dulwich Zhuhai, and ready to Live Worldwise.
“We felt very honored to be part of Dulwich Zhuhai’s history. We are very proud to celebrate, even create a lot of 'first' with the community – we are the first class that graduate at the new campus, the first class that promoted a revolution in Year 13 lessons, the first class that initiated graduate class selfies during morning tutor time. Most importantly, we are the first class with the most graduate students in Dulwich Zhuhai’s history! At least, for now.
Having been through lockdowns of different areas in the city and of the campus, online learning and exam cancellation, we realised that sometimes the mundane triviality happened yesterday could easily become something we desperately crave for on the next day.
We are grateful for all the understanding and support from each teacher and schoolmate. We share every up and down. I know that this is the class that I have loved, a team that without anyone it will dim.”
“I am very happy to be with all of you on this journey with Dulwich Zhuhai, however different our journeys may have been before we came together – and now together, we’ve shared many joint memories over the past years.
We studied together, we dreamed and excelled together, and we forged friendship. We have learned not to be afraid of change but dare use it as an opportunity for growth, such as moving to a totally new environment like from the old campus to the new, and like the journey we soon will take on at universities overseas.
Life is more about the journey than the destination. Now, the opportunity of the future is wild and beautiful and waiting for us to make it. So, let’s go out and burn like the sun!”
“Dear all Year 13 students, four years ago, your new journey just commenced at Dulwich Zhuhai. In a flash, you are now coming to the end of this journey. During the four years of time with the teachers, you have explored and developed a lot, you have become more mature and calm; you have found your best-fit pathway and gained self-confidence; you have grown from a naive teenager to a young adult in your prime time of life.
May you be resilient and confident, and may your future be like the rising sun. The school is proud of you, so are we as parents. We wish all the graduate students asuccessful future in their overseas study and life.”

“The Class of 2022 is an extraordinary group. They have faced the challenge twice where international examinations were cancelled due to the global pandemic. However, we are so proud to see them making every effort and supporting each other as a team, and finally everyone receives the offer from their ‘Dream Schools’.
We would present our sincere gratitude to their resilience and flexibility undertough times, as well as to their positive and humble attitude for overcoming difficulties. We are also grateful for all the hard work of our teachers and staff, as well as the continuous support from all our parents. We wish you all the best in your new chapter in the near future!”
——Director, Matthew Conn
