Calling all Students and Families...

Dear parents, guardians, and caregivers!

We send our thoughts and best wishes to you all during this difficult time.

Over the last few weeks, we have all been concerned about the outbreak of COVID-19 and been asked to stay at home to avoid the risk of infection. Schools extended their opening dates, restaurants keep closing, and many international flights have been cancelled. However, we are not helpless. China's government and its people along with people all around the world have been making all-out efforts to curb the spread of this virus.

Under these circumstances, we at Shanghai Family, Parents&Kids and Humaniuwa would like to announce that we will delay our 2020 Art & Writing Competition Award Ceremony and extend the Art & Writing Competition submission deadline to 10th March 2020,  allowing students more time to submit their work. Please click here for our 2019-2020 Art & Writing Competition details. 

Moreover, to show our unified support and best wishes to both Wuhan and China, we invite all students living in Shanghai and surrounding cities to also participate in our special contest "Go Wuhan, Go China" alongside our Art & Writing Competition.

"Go Wuhan, Go China" Video Clips

We invite all children from various schools to send us a short video of them showing their support for Wuhan and cheers for China. The best video clips will then be displayed on our Shanghai Family Website. The video producers themselves will then have the chance to deliver a speech at our 2020 Award Ceremony.
