Dear Parents and Students,
As a school we place strong emphasis on our students to make a difference to themselves and in the world and we encourage this philosophy throughout the year but also have a dedicated week beyond the traditional classroom called ‘SIS goes MaD’ Week.
The week provides opportunities to bring the school values to life:
- We work to nurture ourselves, our society and our planet and take personal responsibility for a sustainable future.
- We approach and engage other people with respect and honesty.
- We manage ourselves and our learning by developing self awareness, resilience and courage.
- We explore our world with open minds and compassionate perspectives.
- We use our initiative and commit to making a difference by being creative, resourceful and reflective.
On the following pages, you will find a diverse programme of activities, each of which has highlighted the specific learning outcomes students will have the opportunity to achieve. Creativity, Activity and Service are three of the heartbeats of an IB Diploma School and a community that sets its highest aspiration as “making a difference”. These are some of the richest life experiences a student can encounter in school and these are the moments which they will always remember.
Yours sincerely,
Darin Slethaug
Vice Principal
