Lantau International School (LIS) was founded in 1995, making it one of the longer-established international primary schools on Lantau Island. The school has grown from a single campus in Tong Fuk to three campuses—Cheung Sha, Tong Fuk, and Pui O—serving Reception through Primary 6. It remains a privately owned institution, independently operated rather than part of a larger education group. Over time, LIS has maintained its focus on small class sizes and English-medium teaching following the British Curriculum.
Lantau International School’s community is centred around its close-knit island setting, bringing together families from the local and expatriate populations of South Lantau. The school organises annual celebrations, outdoor activities, and whole-school events such as the Summer Reading Challenge and sports days. Outdoor learning is a regular feature, with students taking part in beach PE, hikes, and nature-based projects, reflecting the school’s connection to the surrounding environment.
The school does not publicly disclose information regarding a Parent Teacher Association (PTA) or related events.
Located in Upper Cheung Sha Village on South Lantau Island, the Reception campus of Lantau International School serves children aged four to five in a bilingual English–Mandarin environment. Following the British Early Years Foundation Stage framework, the programme focuses on early literacy, numeracy, creative arts, and social development through structured play and exploration. The seaside setting near Cheung Sha Beach allows for outdoor activities and nature-based learning as part of daily routines. Class sizes are limited to 22 students, ensuring close teacher support. Families can reach the campus via school bus routes and local transport from Tung Chung and Mui Wo, making it accessible while maintaining a peaceful coastal environment.
