ENQUIRE NOW
The red walls and white tiles of the Huili building look even more appealing under the blue sky in the autumn day. The appearance and design of the buildings are inspired by the distinctive architecture at The Wellington College in the UK. Walking into the campus, one can never get used to the beauty of Huili. It is in its inclusive education and passionate teachers, and also in its wonderful sets of facilities.
In keeping with the Huili School commitment to a well-rounded education, Huili School Hangzhou is situated on a purpose-built, state-of-the-art campus containing all of the facilities required to provide pupils with the best academic and co-curricular opportunities.
Today, we invite you to take a walk and see the incredibly modern facilities we have at the Huili campus.
✦
Library
✦
The main library is at the heart of the school, geographically and academically. Its focus is books and encouraging a love of reading, but it is also a multi-media centre for pupils, promoting independent study. For all Huili pupils, the library is a learning resource designed to generate significant interest in reading and research.
Performing Arts Centre
Our Performing Arts department aims to make pupils more confident, communicative and empathetic through studying music, drama, dance and theatre. Taught and run by top industry professionals, our state-of-the-art facilities enable pupils to get a near-professional experience in all their creative endeavours. There are also opportunities to be involved in the operational elements of performances, concert productions and technical aspects.
✦
Theatre
✦
The 560-seat Grand Theatre hosts many events throughout the academic year, including assemblies, music recitals, Chinese New Year Galas, Winter Concerts, Musicals and Educational Festivals.
✦
Blackbox
✦
Drama classes take place in our Black Box Studio. An education in drama has countless benefits. It teaches creativity, communication and teamwork — essential skills in any career. It also teaches historical and cultural appreciation and allows pupils to examine fundamental human issues through an expressive medium. At Huili School Hangzhou, we offer instruction in drama for all grades. We provide a safe, non-judgmental environment and encourage full participation.

Dukebox is our Wellington College Hangzhou radio station. DukeBox Radio covers the entire Hangzhou campus. As part of the School Activities programme (SAs), DukeBox Radio Club operates on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. The Dukebox presenter supervises pupils as they record sessions, learn how to create a radio show, edit music and spoken word and master interview techniques.
PE
Sport is another major Huili priority. Here, the facilities are second to none: the sports hall, football pitch, a 400-metre all-weather synthetic running track, basketball and badminton courts, and two swimming pools, including a 25-metre, six-lane competition pool. Few schools worldwide are blessed with the resources available at Huili, designed to support our wide-ranging co-curricular activities programme, both after school and at weekends.

The state-of-the-art gym on the 2nd floor of the Huili Building offers ten badminton courts, three basketball courts, one handball court, one volleyball court and a gym.

DT Classroom
✦
The Design and Technology room offers state-of-the-art facilities for 3D printing and handwork art projects. Pupils have full access to the latest technological tools and platforms. Opportunities abound for our pupils to develop their work alongside passionate and creative professionals and to display and view results in our many exhibitions.
✦
Art Gallery
✦
The Art Gallery opened in September 2021. The quality of work our pupils achieve and the dedication of the time and energy they put into their art ensure their work is truly sensational. We want to make more partnerships with our local community, and art may form part of the networking.
Confucius said, “The mechanic, who wishes to do his work well, must first sharpen his tools.” At Huili, we equip our pupils with comprehensive educational facilities and resources that allow them to build their own world and to tap their potentials to the fullest. We are confident that they will continue their journey with courage and inspiration in this meticulously designed space at Huili.
