New Teenager | Zeng Xinrong (Sarah): Growing Through Exploration and Clashes at Sendelta International Junior High School


Sarah's childhood has always been closely tied to exploring the world. During her primary school years, she studied in Australia, China, and the UK. Having visited over 40 cities and more than 100 museums and art galleries, she gained an early understanding of the world's vastness and a stronger desire to find a nurturing environment that could accommodate her curiosity and thirst for knowledge.


Now, as an 8th-grade student at Sendelta, Sarah has found her own pace of growth here. She not only has access to tailored academic courses but also a broad space that embraces diverse passions. More importantly, she is in an educational atmosphere that fosters the qualities of "daring to question, being able to explore, and knowing how to grow".


Let's dive into the story of Sarah and witness how this girl blooms with unique brilliance on the fertile ground of Sendelta.

When talking about her academic experience at Sendelta, Sarah's tone is filled with approval and delight. This "sense of fit" stems from Sendelta's precise differentiated instruction system, allowing her—who already has a solid academic foundation—to move forward steadily on the track that best suits her.

Looking at Sarah's class schedule, every course reflects the care put into "personalization".Courses like Mathematics, English, and Science all align perfectly with her academic level.

Behind her excellent academic performance lies Sarah's self-discipline and hard work. Her daily habit of reviewing for one hour after class is the key to maintaining her academic edge, allowing her to quickly adapt to the learning pace of a higher grade after skipping to M3 (8th grade) this semester.


This self-discipline has been cultivated since she was in the first and second grades of primary school.

This learning model of "timely review + proactive help-seeking" not only helps Sarah maintain excellent academic performance, but also allows her to feel the "professional warmth" from the faculty team at Sendelta.

Today, Sarah not only masters all M3-level courses with ease but also becomes a member of the IEO (International Economics Olympiad) team, exploring her interests on Sendelta’s broader academic stage.


When you open Sarah's growth journal, "rich and colorful" stands out as its most defining label.

Reading is Sarah's way to "recharge". Every night when she gets home, she sets aside 30 minutes to an hour for reading. "Some people see reading as a task, but I think it’s a form of relaxation," she says. Sendelta’s well-stocked library and weekly English reading sessions provide the perfect "home" for her reading habit.

In addition to keeping a regular daily reading habit, Sarah, encouraged by her English teachers at Sendelta, also creates her own English novels in her spare time.

Charity is a "original aspiration" Sarah has held since childhood and continued to this day. Through various public welfare activities, she has felt the joy of helping others. Sendelta International Junior High attaches great importance to shaping students' character, fostering good habits, and cultivating a sense of responsibility. Here, Sarah's kindness and sense of duty have been well nurtured.

During her time studying at Sendelta, Sarah's growth path has been clear and solid.

"The thing that attracts me most about Sendelta is that it allows me to 'not only study well but also have fun well'." Every child can find their own stage here, unlock their potential, and gain both happiness and knowledge.

Today, Sarah carries her original aspiration of "loving life" and grows happily on the campus of Sendelta.


From the sunny campuses of Australia to the museums of the UK, and then to Sendelta’s laboratories, sports fields, and libraries, Sarah’s growth story holds the warmth and strength of Sendelta’s education: it is committed to providing every child with a "well-suited" environment for growth.


We look forward to seeing Sarah take root and thrive on Sendelta’s soil—one that is full of inclusiveness and support—as she moves firmly toward her future, aiming for "not only achievements and happiness, but also sustainable growth".

Parent Sharing:


"We have several core ideas about our child's growth and education. First, we combine 'reading ten thousand books' with 'traveling ten thousand miles'—while laying a solid academic foundation, we have taken her to see the world and participate in social practices from an early age. Second, we attach great importance to parent-child companionship; her father and I will do sports with her. The ultimate goal is to help her find a balance: not getting trapped in internal competition and exhaustion, avoiding overwork, not draining her enthusiasm for learning, and at the same time maintaining excellent grades."
