We have had a very busy week in the High School with our Grade 10 Speed Careers Fair, teacher vs students basketball matches, our Grade 10 mock exams beginning, and our Assembly to celebrate the many Service Learning initiatives and High Honour roll for our Pamoja students in the Diploma programme.
Grade 9 - International Schools Assessment (ISA) and Grade 10 eAssessment Mock examinations
As a parent there are many things you can do to support your child as they prepare for exams and tests on Monday and Tuesday. Here are few general tips for better examination preparation:
Lion Dance
The Lion Dance will come to ISS Preston on 20 February at 10AM. All Preston Campus will witness the tradition and theatre of the Lion Dance as we welcome in the Year of the Dog.
Security at Preston Campus
We continue to improve our security and access to our campus. We now close the lower car park gate during the day from 8:15am - 2:45pm and again from 3:45pm - 6:30pm. If vehicles need to gain entry, then a 'hoot' on the horn will alert our security guard who will then open the gate. Please ensure you have your parent ID cards with you when coming onto the school premises. The safety of our students is important to us all and your cooperation with this change is most appreciated.
Upcoming Events
Monday/Tuesday, 12-13 February - G9 ISA testing and G10 Mock examinations
Wednesday/Thursday, 14-15 February - Whole School Inservice ( No School for students)
Friday, 16 February - Lunar New Year ( No school )
Friday 23 February - Student Council Movie afternoon 4-6pm.
