Canadian International School of Hong Kong (CDNIS) is an international school in Aberdeen, Hong Kong. Founded in 1991, the school provides an education for over 1,800 students representing more than 40 nationalities from Pre Reception to Grade 12. CDNIS is one of five International Baccalaureate (IB) World Schools in Hong Kong authorized to deliver three IB programmes - the Diploma Programme (DP), Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Primary Years Programme (PYP). In addition to the IB Diploma Programme, students are also eligible to receive the Ontario Secondary School Diploma upon graduation. The language of instruction is English with Mandarin and French taught as second languages. The Interim Head of School is Mr. David Baird. The school celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2016.
For six consecutive years, CDNIS was recognized as the "Leading International School in Hong Kong", by Hong Kong Business magazine’s High-Flyers campaign. In 2008 and 2009, the Fraser Institute Report Card awarded CDNIS with a 10 out of 10. CDNIS was one of only three school out of more than 700 delivering the Ontario curriculum to achieve this ranking in 2009 and the only school to achieve this ranking for two consecutive years.
The Principal of the Lower School is Helen Kelly and the Vice Principals are Lisa Kipfer (Pre Reception - Prep), Robert Grantham (Grade 1-3) and DJ MacPherson (Grade 4-6). Students from Pre Reception to Grade 6 are part of the Lower School and make up just over 60% of the student body. Students in Pre Reception and Reception attend school for either the morning or afternoon session, while Prep to Grade 6 students attend school all-day.
