On Friday we said farewell to our Grade 12 students as they went on Study Leave to continue their preparation for their final exams beginning on 1st May. The students opted to have a Teacher Appreciation Day rather than the traditional Prank Day and it was absolutely wonderful, the teachers certainly did feel 'appreciated'. We hosted a 'last breakfast' and gave a few words of encouragement as the next part of their journey begins.

The Science of Revision: Revision Tips
It was super to see parents and students at the Grade 9 MYP Information evening. During the Evening details about the expectations in Grade 10 - the Personal Project, the ePortfolio and eAssessments and the changes to the elective choices for the students as they move into Grade 10 were discussed and any questions answered. We also had current Grade 10 students give their view on how best to prepare for the Personal Project and some of the challenges along the way. Our Grade 9 students have all been given a subject elective form to complete which should be handed back to the school office by 29th April.
Parent Focus Group Meeting
Another chance to provide helpful feedback to the school is to come to the Parent Focus Group Meeting. This is an important way that the school can get parental feedback to ensure our continual improvement:
Focus Group Meeting
Wednesday 27th April
Elementary School Multipurpose Hall
7pm.
This meeting is open to all parents.
This focus group aims to explore the findings from the Parent Survey that was recently completed so that we can fully understand parent perceptions and use this information to further strengthen our services. We will also share some of the facilities upgrades and programme developments that will be introduced in August 2016. This is a great opportunity to be a part of ISS' decision making processes!
