Service Expo@NIS Monday June 6th

NIS is hosting the 3rd Service Expo on Monday June 6th. This event highlights some of the Service Activities students do at NIS and other schools. We would still like some more NIS G9-11 students to be involved. This may be interest to G10 students who do not have semester 2 “core” activity or G11 students who would like add a Service activity to their CAS programme.  Please contact me if you are interested.

Grade 11 CAS Interviews – Week 36

A reminder to Grade 11 students that next week your Advisory teacher will undertake a CAS interview with you. This is a requirement of the IB so that we can document your CAS progress. Please ensure that you have your CAS journal up to date and that you are systematically documenting your achievement of the CAS learning outcomes.

Annual PE Equipment Recall

Yes, it is that time of year again where we do a big general call out for any PE equipment that you have borrowed or may have turned up in your rooms or that students have found around the place and ask that you please return it to the PE office. Alternatively, you could email me and I am happy to come and collect any items from you. Ideally I would like to have the inventory list updated next week (Grade 10’s will be out on work week so I have some time), so by the end of this week would be fantastic. If you desperately still need equipment that you currently have out, please let me know asap. Thank you in advance. Let the annual stocktake begin!

Art Show at the Cafe

I would like to invite everyone to the opening of my art show starting on Friday the 27th 5-7pm  before the Accidental Theatre Company production.
