I attempted to fetch information from the official Shanghai United International School website (https://www.suis.com.cn) as you requested, but I could not access the site from my browsing tool. Because you asked that I strictly use the school website, I cannot provide the requested facts until I can retrieve pages from that domain. Would you like me to (a) try again to access the official site now, (b) proceed using other reputable sources (Shanghai government, campus pages, news) if the official site remains inaccessible, or (c) you can paste the specific page(s) from the SUIS website you want me to use? Once I can access the school's official content I will extract the items you listed (opening year, address, area description, lat/long from Google Maps, fees range, curricula, ages accepted, class size, enrolment, co-ed/boarding, principal, bus service, language(s) of instruction and taught languages, school stages, strengths (up to 3) and clubs/societies) and return them in the format you requested. Please tell me which option you prefer and, if you want me to try again, whether to use the English or Chinese site version.
