1. Principal’s Message

Dear HIS Families

It has certainly been a busy week with all of the preparations for the HIS Festival underway. Thank you to our PTA and all the volunteers who have been working so hard to make the HIS Festival possible. We are all looking forward to a great day tomorrow and it looks like we may even get a little bit of sunshine. See you at the HIS Festival tomorrow.

Kind regards

Damian Rentoule (Principal)

4. Second PYP Parent Representative Meeting for the Self-Study

Dear Parents,

On Tuesday 25th April, we will be meeting between 10.15 – 12pm at Aeon Mall in Fuchu (Diamond City) to further discuss the PYP standards and practices for the self-study.  We welcome all interested parents to meet us there; parking is free for 4 hours and the Roji Dining area on the 1st floor offers a variety of delicious food to consume either for brunch or lunch if you wish to stay afterwards!  We will be meeting by the seating area beside the Tully’s Coffee shop so if you have some time to spare to share your feedback on how HIS is implementing the PYP, please come along!
