Students Speak: A Global Documentary Project

Students from our sister GCD school in Madagascar are launching a global, student-led documentary on the real issues young people face today—such as academic pressure, mental health, and IB-related stress. They are inviting three motivated students from each GCD school to join the international team and contribute through filming, interviewing, editing, or organizing. Together, these voices will form one powerful film reflecting the diverse realities of our generation.

If you are interested, please contact Ms Anna before Wednesday for more information.

We invite all members of the NIS community to join us for some fun, friendly frisbee sessions, whether you’re a pro at this or just want to try throwing a frisbee for a change, everyone is welcome no matter how much experience you have!

There will be many fun activities from some casual throwing & catching to some potential mini games! This time is meant to be chill place to hang out, make friends, and enjoy some fresh air outside!
