Christmas came early to Beijing City International School (BCIS) – and we are so happy it did. This year's Christmas Bazaar was all the more special being the first family event on campus since the beginning of the year!The BCIS gym and playground transformed into a magical Christmas market, adorned with crafty vendors and cozy food marquees, for all our families to enjoy together again.

Jointly organized with Beijing's Roundabout charity's Helping Hands Project, our BCIS community members entered the festive affair in controlled numbers to ensure we maintained a safe, healthy environment for everyone. The event raised a whopping total of RMB 41 750, which will all go toward supporting the remarkable Helping Hands Project.

Enjoy the video below for scenes of the Christmas Bazaar with special appearances from Santa and Elf.

In the #BCISpirit of Christmas, we would like to encourage our community to once again purchase the Christmas Apples of Madaifu. This year community members are able to order directly through the QR code below and have them delivered straight to your home, to support the education of 135 children in this season of giving.
