Olive Tree International Academy is a full-time Primary, Junior and Senior High School in Hangzhou, China.
The Ideals in our school
The IDEALS serve as our guiding principles and aspirations for the future. They remind us of our journey—where we have come from, where we are now, and where we aim to be. Like a northern star, they inform every aspect of our school life: from senior management decisions to student-led clubs, from curriculum development and lesson planning to ongoing professional growth, and from our democratically elected student union to our service outreach programs. The IDEALS encapsulate everything it means to be an OTIAer.
What being a Round Square school means to us
Being Round Square not only validates the work that we have done since our founding in 2017, but also provides students and staff with the opportunities that were hitherto unavailable to them before our membership began. Our profoundly international outlook finds a vehicle for expression through the Round Square network, whether through conference attendance, service projects, or collaboration with schools around the world. Round Square allows us to better fulfil our school motto of ‘nurture distinction, embrace diversity’.
