PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

IB DP Exams

Our Year 12 students participating in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme (DP) will commence their exams next Monday 21st October. The exam period will continue until Friday 8th November.  I would like to wish our Year 12 students the best of luck from the entire school community for these very important exams. I know the students have been working very hard with support from their teachers and parents as they have readied themselves for these exams.

Primary Book Week

I know a lot of fantastic activities are prepared for next week’s Primary Book Week with it culminating in Friday’s Book Character Parade. 

Next PnF Meeting

All parents are invited to our next Parents and Friends (PnF) Association Meeting which will be held in the staffroom at 8:00am next Monday, 21st October

Pejaten Cup Touch Rugby

Good luck to all participants in next Saturday’s Pejaten Cup Touch Rugby which will be hosted at AIS. Thank you to Mr Brentan and the other AIS teachers and staff who are organising this event. Let’s hope one of our teams can bring the trophy back home again this year. 

SPK 7th Convention

AIS hosted the 7th Annual SPK Convention last Thursday and Friday with over 300 educators from more than 90 schools across Indonesia attending. SPK (Cooperative Education Unit) is a status given by the government to schools in Indonesia that collaborate with Foreign Educational Institutions. The Indonesian SPK School Association has been very active in policy discussions both regarding specific SPK policies and national education policies in general.  

Dr Beth & I presented a keynote address on the impact of our Mobile Phone Policy on student socialisiation and learning in the High School. Thank you to the students, parents and teachers who completed our surveys about the Mobile Phone Policy last term as we used a lot of that data in our key-note.

Special thanks goes to the Mr Jon, Ms Flo and our primary choralists who participated in the event opening - Sophie, Aisyah, Adele, Connie, Evie, Adept, Eamonn, I Jun and Damhee
