Daily Bulletin

Do we often socialize with people from different places/backgrounds as us? Why do some of us feel inclined to stick with the people who have the same mother tongue?  What affects where we sit in the cafeteria?

This year, videographers from the Video Review team are partaking in Through Our Lens, a student-led documentary project with 6 schools participating worldwide. The topic of our segment is “Social divisions based on nationality/ethnicity in an international community.”

WE WANT TO HEAR YOUR VOICE!

With this project, we aim to discuss the social rifts based on culture, nationality, and/or ethnicity in our community. If you feel that you have had an experience that aligns to our topic, have something to contribute to the discussion, or have a suggestion regarding how we can address these rifts as a community, we would be glad to interview you.

We are open to interviewing students from G6-12 (below G6 may be considered case-by-case) and teachers from all across campus.

Interviews will be held from December 9-11 th. Please fill out this form as soon as possible.

Please get in touch with Grade 10 Seoyun Jung if you have any questions.

Dear All,

Please find attached the SLT meeting minutes of week 16 for your information.

SLT – Dec 3

2026-Lunar New Year Celebration Organizing and Performance Survey    – Fill out form

Students who missed exams in grades 8 and 9 will begin rewrites on Monday. Their names can be found here. They will rewrite the exams in the order they are missed, so if the first exam they missed is English, they will write it first. If the first exam they missed is science, they will write it first, etc. 

• The first exam will be block one (8:00 am) on Monday in LGR 3. Learning support students will go to C142. 
• The second exam will be block four (1:00 pm) in D220. 
• For those students who missed 3 exams or more and can stay after school, there will be a third time slot at 3:05 in D220. 
• After this, students who still have exams will write at 8:00 am in D220 on Tuesday.  

If this conflicts with assessments in subjects, let Jade know, and she will do her best to accommodate. If you teach these students and they arrive during your class, please check with them to see if they should be in an exam.

Dear All,
Monthly Equipment Testing of Fire-fighting & Lockdown System on this coming Sunday (Dec 7th)  8:00am~4:00pm. Please ignore the broadcasting, the alarming bell and the flickering blue lights during the period.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hi everyone,

Just a quick reminder to complete the NIS Community Survey if you haven’t already, both as a teacher and, if applicable, as a parent. Your feedback is incredibly valuable as NIS gathers data to help guide our Mission and Strategy.

The survey closes TODAY, so please take a few minutes to share your thoughts!

Please find the list of students who will be absent from school @12:30pm on Tuesday, 9th December for the ISNAC Santa SKINS Swim Meet.

Best wishes,
