On 19 September, Harrow Shenzhen
had the honour of welcoming
Mr Alastair Land,
Head Master of Harrow School in the UK.
His visit reinforced ties across
the global Harrow community.
It also opened doors for Harrow Shenzhen students
to access world-class international programmes
and university resources.
As the head of Harrow School UK, Mr Land embodies educational excellence. As a first-class Natural Sciences graduate from Cambridge University, he has held distinguished positions at Eton College and Winchester College. He currently serves as Secretary of the HMC London Division.
Harrow Shenzhen students welcomed Mr Land with a graceful performance of Colourful Clouds Chasing the Moon. He commended the school’s academic achievements and the remarkable university placements of our inaugural graduates – with an average of 7 offers per student, including Imperial College London, LSE, UCL, and UCLA. These results are a clear reflection of Harrow Shenzhen’s global competitiveness.
He urged students to uphold Harrow’s core values – Courage, Honour, Humility, and Fellowship. He also encouraged them to leverage the global Harrovian network to become influential leaders of tomorrow.
During his visit, Mr Land presented honorary medals to 24 Harrow Shenzhen scholarship recipients. He also engaged warmly in dialogue with students, parents, and staff.
