UN Day

We held our annual UN theme day on October 24th. The central idea around the day was "Everyone has to work together to solve problems." In the morning, all students in IS PK - IS 5 worked together as groups to solve challenges and teach each other activities. In the afternoon, IS 2- IS 5 students were split into their house groups. They went to various stations where they had to solve a problem as a group in order to get a clue to tell them what station to go to next.

The day ended with a presentation from the Back Pack Project. This presentation is the kickoff to our school service project of collecting back packs and filling them with everyday items that children need to go to school. The back packs will be collected and filled, and will eventually be sent to Malawi. You can find out more about this project and how you can help by clicking on the following web site: http://www.sircharity.org/Schools.html

Loads of talent!

ISH Primary held the first talent show of the school year on Thursday, October 11th. Musical intruments were played and dancing was performed. We have a wide range of talent at ISH. Those involved did a great job and we were all very impressed. Special thanks to the students who took place in the show and to Mr. Kincaid for organizing it.
