During the Opening Ceremony, The Lord Provost of Edinburgh unveiled the plaque for MIS in person. The Right Honorable Frank Ross mentioned that MIS was born from the strengths of culture and education of both Shenzhen and Edinburgh. In his speech he said “it is clear for all to see that this campus represents an equal commitment to work across civic society to foster similar endeavours. However, above all else, the building represents a statement of confidence, in a City which has substantial ambitions in trade, science, innovation, sustainable economic growth and in establishing international links, which is even now punching well above its weight here at Merchiston International School, these leaders will be moulded to provide confident, competent, respectful and inclusive leadership both in their chosen fields and in the location that they choose to live, either at home or abroad. This represents a substantial and continuing legacy from time at this school and one that I hope will match the 185 years of operation of the original school in Edinburgh.”

龙华区教育局王玉玺局长亦对爱丁堡名校在龙华的落户表达了盛赞，他在致辞中表示：“深圳曼彻斯通城堡学校拥有一批精湛的管理团队，优秀的教师队伍，学生们的学习环境开放舒适。我坚信在首任校长Chris的领导下，这批富有职责意识和进取精神的教师队伍一定能为我们每一位学生的成长和发展搭建广阔的国际教育平台。希望学校办成龙华国际教育的标杆和创新高地，办成深圳国际教育的一流高端品牌名校。”

The Director of Longhua Education Bureau – Mr Wang Yuxi also expressed his praise of MIS, “the quality of teaching staff is superb with outstanding foreign teachers; the studying environment for students is comfortable and creative. I firmly believe that this aspirational teaching team led by Mr Lynn will surely create an international education platform for our students to grow and develop. For this vision, the Education Bureau will try our best to support this wonderful school, we will offer our help when needed. We hope in the future, MIS will have stable development whilst growing according to the laws and regulations set by the Shenzhen Education Bureau, and I sincerely wish that MIS will become the education beacon in this region!”
