About this school
Norwegian International School (NIS) began as The Norwegian School in Hong Kong, founded by the Norwegian Lutheran Mission and the Norwegian Mission Society as a non-profit school for the children of Norwegian missionaries. It moved from Kowloon Tong to the heritage-listed Tai Po Bungalow in 1992, switched to English as the language of instruction in 1994 as it began admitting international students, and took its current name in 2001. Since 2010 it has been sponsored and run by Generations Christian Education, a not-for-profit organisation.
The kindergarten remains at the Bungalow on Kwong Fuk Road, while primary classes have used a school building in nearby Kam Shan village since 2008. NIS is an accredited International Primary Curriculum school and uses the IEYC in the early years, delivering a broad, creative curriculum rooted in a Biblical worldview and focused on character and values.
Classes are small, the green campuses give space for outdoor play and hands-on learning, and the school emphasises close relationships between families, students and teachers.
