Ningbo International School (NBIS) is an international school licensed by the Ningbo Municipal Government and run by the Zhejiang Wanli Education Group. NBIS provides children with foreign nationalities programmes from kindergarten to year 9. As the school grows, up to year 12 will become available. It is planned to open a Child Care Centre on campus in February of 2006 to cater for children under 3 years old. Besides modern well equipped classrooms, facilities available for students include an Assembly Hall, a Library, a Gymnasium and sporting facilities such as tennis, volleyball, and basketball courts and a 400-metre artificial running track. We have a computer laboratory, home economics centre and music suite. The school opened in September of 2005 and enrolments are taken throughout the year. NBIS is located in the Ningbo High Technology Northern Zone, and covers forty thousand square metres. NBIS was built with an investment of 87 million Yuan, or over USD 10 million.
