- I am very happy with choosing this place. Great approach, very nice atmosphereWritten December 12, 2023
- It’s time to say goodbye and we want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone!!! The teachers didn’t just educate our kids. You all taught them the importance of education. We are grateful to you. You were kind, patient and considerate, but played the stickler when you needed to. You have played a key role in moulding our children into good human beings and they will miss so much about LCIS. Thanks a lot for your support. All the best and Auf WiedersehenWritten February 25, 2023
- Thank you for the wonderful years at La Côte International School Aubonne, it has truly been a joy to be part of this adventure from the beginning, and to see the school and the boys evolve so beautifully. The boys have really enjoyed every minute of it, the excellent quality of the teaching, the efficiency and friendliness of the whole team at LCIS, the atmosphere, the programme, the excursions, the fabulous music shows, thank you for all these wonderful moments.Written February 25, 2023
- It has been more than an year since my kids left this school, but they still remember it so fondly! Had a fantastic experience and saw my kids flourish in this positive, lively and encouraging learning environment! The staff is extremely encouraging and motivating towards the students. Parents are always welcomed and supported in adapting to the new place.Written February 25, 2023

- As a parent of a 7th grader attending GSN, I feel very grateful that my son has an opportunity to be a member of a school that is based on love, respect, and kindness.

- This is a very warm school, the relationship between teachers and students is not so much teachers and students, but more like family.

GSN provides all of it.Written February 25, 2023

GSN is without a doubt the best school in Ningbo I will ever have the pleasure of having contact with.

It is also the strong team of staff throughout the school and their sheer dedication to their job that will allow my kids to continue to grow and develop in their best way!Written February 25, 2023
