PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

Wendy Binks

Australian author and illustrator has spent the week at AIS Jakarta. During this time she has worked with all Early Years and Primary classes where they have learned about the writing process and have also participated in drawing workshops. Wendy also led parent and staff drawing workshops. Drop by the canteen next week to see the sensational mural that she is creating with our Year 6 students - it certainly adds some much needed colour and character to our canteen area. Special thanks to the Year 6 students who have stayed late in the afternoon to work with Wendy.

University & Careers Fair

Thank you to Dr Beth, Ibu Dhira and their team who led a fantastic University & Careers Fair on Wednesday. Our students had the opportunity to speak with over 40 university staff or agents from a wide variety of countries, plus to many parents and AIS Community members who joined to speak about their chosen careers. Thank you to all parents who supported this initiative.

7th Annual SPK Conference @ AIS 

AIS will be hosting the 7th Annual SPK Conference from 10 - 11 August. The theme of the conference is Reimagining Education: Reinventing our School for a Resilient Future. This conference will bring teachers from schools from Jakarta and wider Indonesia. Dr Beth and I will be presenting one of the keynote addresses where we will share details of our High School Mobile Phone Policy including the reasons behind our initiative, the research that supported it, our implementation and feedback obtained form students, staff and parents. Aside from other keynotes, numerous breakout sessions and meetings will be held over the two days. SPK is a status given by the government to schools in Indonesia that have collaborated with Foreign Educational Institutions.
