GIS Whole School Calendars

The counselling team will meet with new students in small groups, around 5-6 weeks after the beginning of each term. The goal is to introduce the department and services provided by counselling. It is also an opportunity for the counselling team to discuss any transition issues the students may be having and and get to know how they are settling into the school environment.

The Instrumental Music Program Recital series provides an opportunity for 15 students per term to perform a short piece to showcase their learning in instrumental lessons. The recital is a relaxed and exciting way for students to begin their journey performing on their chosen instrument

A showcase of the outstanding work of our Design and Technology students from the last 12 months. The exhibition will take place in the Main Foyer.

An parent workshop introducing the use of ipads in the classroom for Year 2 students, prior to their use of this technology in Year 3.

One of two workshops (one based at EYC and one based at the main campus) which give parents the chance to find out the process of transition between our EYC and Primary school, and how the school and parents can support this. It will also provide a valuable opportunity for parents to learn more about Year 1 and the curriculum.

‘Moving Up Day’ allows all children to become accustomed to their new class and their new teacher through a number of activities. These activities will allow them to become familiar with how to get to their new classes, as well as the routines in their new classes.

Goodbye Event: For many international school students, moving to new places is the norm. This event will help these children and their families better understand the transition process and prepare to say 'good' goodbyes so that they feel prepared for their next step.

A morning of celebration to celebrate Hari Raya as a community. The event will be parent-led, with food, music and dance.

This is a week where GIS Secondary students are given the opportunity to develop an increased sense of social responsibility, a global view of society and a heart for helping others. It is always a busy week: some students will be in school working with local refugee children, others will be doing local projects with NGO centres around Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, and some students will be going on residential trips around Malaysia, improving lives of local communities and/or helping out with environmental causes.

The Upper Primary Musical is an exciting production for Year 4-6 students who would like to be involved in a large production at GIS!

Students will perform four shows to a large audience, and attend rehearsals and workshops throughout Term 3.
