The health and wellbeing of our students is always at the forefront of all that we do at ISS. Every week our Grade 11 and 12 students are involved in an 80 minute fitness class that focuses on keeping them physically balanced. We also have an interactive board at the top of our stairs that has a monthly theme linked to our IB Learner profile for students to learn from. This is coordinated by our Wellness Counsellor along with her monthly blog. During September we focus on the IB Learner Profile 'Balanced'. We understand the importance of balancing different aspects of our lives - intellectual, physical, and emotional - to achieve well-being for ourselves and others. We recognise our interdependence with other people and with the world in which we live" (IBO, 2006)
