This week has been busy with the annual photoshoot of all the students in their Kampongs, and our graduates looking smart in their gowns and hats. We also have had a number of fund-raising activities organised by our students for their WWW trips.
The Grade 9 organised a lunchtime of fun that included tasty food and a competition to find the fastest typist between staff and students - well done to Thon Thon who was the overall champion. The event raised funds that will go towards building a toilet and planting fruit trees at Dong Binh Village. Our Grade 10 ran an afternoon fund raising event for ‘gamers’ where students competed against each other or in teams of two. Funds raised will be donated to the local school for Rohingya refugees. Well done to all the students and teachers who contributed both money and time. We ended our week with some of our Grade 9 students presenting their findings on poster presentations after completing an Interdisciplinary unit (IDU) in Science and Design. Students investigated the use of Robots across a range of industries. Through inquiry, research and collaboration our students compiled their findings and shared their outcomes. Well done to everyone involved. Swim Gala The Swim Gala is an exciting opportunity for the ISS community to join together in a celebration of sporting achievement. The event this year will be made even more special because as an IB Continuum School the Swim Gala will reflect both the PYP and MYP. There will be events for all levels of swimmer and it is hoped that as many of you as possible will be able to join us. The DP students will be at school working on the CORE components of the IB programme.
