Grade 1 students participated in an exploratory activity designed to familiarize them with diverse community roles, including police officers, firefighters, paramedics, postal workers, scientists, archaeologists, artificial intelligence specialists, artists, and architects.

During the activity, students engaged in practical and interactive workshops, learning about the tools and tasks associated with each profession. They gained insights into key aspects of various careers, such as the importance of first aid, the role of archaeology in preserving history, the applications of artificial intelligence, the creativity of artists, and the fundamentals of architectural design. The activity allowed students not only to learn but also to experience these professions in a real-world context.

Innovation and sustainability are at the heart of the SLO team at ISC-Dream City.

The GR4 students were thrilled to engage in the exciting project ‘The Power of Air.’ Through this STEM activity, they explored key physics concepts and the vital role of air in our lives. 

Every year, GR4 students plan a STEM activity through SLO. Last year, we challenged them to use recycled materials to build a balloon-powered car. Students learnt physics concepts and the importance of recycling.

This year, the theme was 'The Power of Air.' The aim was for students to explore key physics concepts and understand the vital role air plays in our lives.

 

Grade 4 Camping Adventure!

Students from ISC-Dream City and ISC-Erbil came together for an unforgettable overnight camp, where they set up tents, enjoyed a cozy bonfire, and explored the farm. It was an experience filled with fun, teamwork, and a love for nature. Special thanks to our prefects for making this adventure truly special for our Grade 4 students!

Chirin, GR8 Prefect : The camping trip was one of the best experiences! I loved bonding with GR4 students around the campfire, sharing stories and laughs. It was amazing to be surrounded by nature and to learn new skills like setting up a tent and hiking to the farm

Celebration of cultural diversity and charity. 

The SLO Activities Department, in collaboration with the SLO Social Responsibility Department and the school's Visual and Performing Arts Department, organized a remarkable Cultural Evening to celebrate our diverse cultures. The event was also a charity fundraiser in partnership with the Dagoretti Child Care Program, which provides care to over 480 disadvantaged children. We were thrilled to showcase the talents of both the children from the program and our students. The evening included a concert with various performances, including cultural dances, poetry recitals, choral verses, acrobat displays, and a fashion show involving everyone. Our students dressed in their cultural outfits and participated in the event to make it a grand success.

High school trips offer amazing opportunities to bond and create lasting memories. During our recent excursion, we ventured to the slopes of Mt. Kenya where our students enjoyed a diverse range of activities, including team-building exercises, high-adrenaline games such as paintballing, go-kart racing, obstacle courses, ATV off-roading, aqua park adventures, and great campfire conversations.

To celebrate, Qatar's hosting of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup, students wore football jerseys and scarves of the teams they were routing for and brought and waved flags. A gymnastic show took place followed face and hand painting with the students electing to have the flag of their country painted on.

 

To give the seniors a memorable event before the end of their journey a fun day was organized with food, activities, and a football match.

 

 

Senior students were invited to attend a BBQ event in the ISC-Damascus forest, where they were surprised with their much-awaited Senior Jackets.

Teachers and staff didn’t miss this opportunity to celebrate with their students and encourage them to reach for the stars.

This memorable event created strong bonds among the students and allowed them to enjoy a delicious BBQ prepared specially for them.

“It was well organized, full of positive vibes” Seniors’ teachers

 

The SLO Activities Department went all out in planning an unforgettable Favorite Character Day for Grades 4 to 8 students! Their thoughtful organization allowed older students to transform into their cherished characters and put on an interactive show for the kindergarten kids. It was a day brimming with creativity as the older students brought beloved characters to life, engaging the younger ones in an enchanting experience they won't soon forget.

 

On the morning of September 8^th, SABIS^® ULINK students gathered at the school entrance to celebrate Teachers’ Day. The students created a large poster with a space left for the teachers to sign their names. The first teacher to arrive was Ms. Ann, the Chemistry teacher. She walked into the classroom building with a warm smile. Initially, she was unaware of what was happening, but within moments, she realized the surprise and expressed her gratitude to the students. The second teacher, Mr. Richard, the School Director of SABIS^® ULINK, was next to enter. One of the students stepped forward and presented him with a greeting card and flowers, saying, "Happy Teachers' Day!" During the event, SABIS^®ULINK captured photos to preserve this joyful moment for the teachers. To conclude the activity, Mr. Richard took a group photo with all the participants as a token of appreciation.

On Teachers' Day, the students expressed their gratitude and sent their blessings to the teachers. The teachers were filled with joy and contentment. Not only was it meaningful to share knowledge with students, but also witnessing their growth and progress brought a sense of fulfillment. The students also recognized the value of this activity as a meaningful way to show appreciation to their teachers.

 

To foster creativity, confidence, and expression among the students, the SLO organized the Actors' Day celebration for students from KG1 to Grade 5.

Students wore costumes to resemble their favorite characters, complete with face painting. Many activities were held such as acting, dancing, singing, and much more.

It was a fun-filled atmosphere. The students unleashed their artistic talent, and it looks like we have quite a few aspiring actors within our ranks.

After months of planning and training, the annual international day brought together students, parents, staff, and a lot of fun.

Students reveled in the opportunity to showcase their cultural identities through food, dances, and other cultural displays.

It was an opportunity to include fun in learning and bring together the vast number of nationalities we have at ISC Dubai.

 

“I had so much fun learning the dance for my country in preparation for the international day”

“It was a wonderful evening and I learned so much about other countries”

 

 

SIS Adma’s annual musical production of this year was “The Lion King.” A lot of hard work and effort by students, teachers, and staff went into surprising the audience with a mind-blowing performance.

The SIS-Adma musical production is held yearly to bring awareness and donate the proceeds to the Children’s Cancer Center of Lebanon. The school production allows students from grades 4-12 to develop their talents, create bonds and friendships, and teach them many valuable skills.

To promote creativity, boost self-confidence, and develop imagination and creative thinking, prefect prepared art activities for students to have fun with their friends.

On the menu were face paintings, making bracelets, and decorating masks. Popcorn was available for all to enjoy.

Prefects: “It always feels satisfying creating a positive, fun atmosphere for students “

 

What better way to explain the school’s mission and function than to involve the parents in the day-to-day activities at the school?

Parents of Grades 7 and 8 were invited to school to meet the teacher's coordinators and administrators of JIA, and experience demo classes, observe shadow teachers explaining lessons, try out the ITL, and do mock exams.

They were greeted by the prefects and welcomed by the teachers, administrators, and the director. Following the Director’s welcome note, the Head Prefect shared her experience with the SABIS Curriculum and her involvement at the school.

Several classes were open for parents to attend live demo classes, where they were introduced to the point system and had a session with the shadow teachers. They experienced a mock exam in the ITL, where students instructed the parents on how to answer and submit exams.

Parent  1: “ it was a great experience and  it was very well organized “

Parent 2:  “ it was a very nice idea of involving parents in an event like this. Where we were introduced to the system and had a very nice experience”

Teacher: “ it was one of the best events we do ‘

Student: “ I was very happy being part of this event “

 

One differentiating factor for seniors is the senior polo shirt and their well-deserved senior jacket.

As part of a routine gathering that looked deceivingly boring, the seniors were invited to the Performance Hall. Once there, they were pleasantly surprised by the decoration, and the music that welcomed them along with the Director, the SLC, AQC, and their teachers who came together to recognize them, congratulate them on their achievements and most importantly present them with their own senior jackets.

 

Words cannot even begin to describe our happiness when we were surprised with our senior jackets! As we entered the theatre, we were surprised to see all our teachers there cheering us and welcoming us in. At that moment, we realized that this was our long-awaited Senior Jacket Ceremony! Our jackets were hidden under the theatre seats, and once the search for our jackets was over and we were all enjoying them, we cut a graduation-themed cake and celebrated with our teachers. There was so much love, joy, and happiness in the air that day, and I can wholeheartedly say that we seniors will never forget the day we first wore our senior jackets!” Christia Makhoul – Grade 12

To inject fun into the school day, the students were asked to forgo their backpacks for the day and bring their books in something unconventional – the crazier the better! They showed up with strollers, laundry baskets, pillows, boxes, and many more ingenuous alternatives.

 

It was an odd activity, but I enjoyed it.

 

Our SLO clubs combined sports and education to produce fun activities for students to engage in and benefit from them. The newest clubs are:

·         Dance Club

·         Fashion Club

·         Art Club

·         Reading Club

·         Turkish Club

The SLO prefects always encourage students to lead new clubs and create exciting and engaging ones.

 

Enrolling in a club is no easy matter when all the clubs are very compelling.

To that end, the Activities department organized a club fair to introduce the students to clubs and encourage them to enroll in the ones that interest them.

The Activities prefect created posters and sign-up sheets and will be leading all the clubs themselves.

The clubs for this term are Chess, Book, Art, Choir, and Music.

 

I can’t wait for the clubs to start! (G4 student)

The International Day is a day that honors all countries. It introduces students to many traditions, teaches them to respect differences in languages and appearances, and teaches them that despite being different, we are united.

For International Day, our students were encouraged to wear their traditional attire and educate their classmates about their country. Activities were held to honor and teach students about the topic.

This event is really beneficial to my kids, and is a great example of how everyone is different.

Seeing my child socialize with different cultures was a pleasant experience

Grade 5-7 students set out for a 3-day camping trip in Camp Ndunda located on the banks of Rupingazi River at the foot of renowned Mt Kenya in the Eastern region of Kenya. Students had to brave the unfamiliar setting while engaging in high-adrenaline activities including the High and Low Ropes Challenge, Board Walk, Mud Fun, Wild Swing, and Canopy Walk. The trip created an opportunity for the students to form strong bonds, and learn survival skills and also had very educational sessions when they visited the rice and coffee factories.

I was not too sure about joining the trip. The activities seemed scary, especially the wild swing and walking on the suspended bridge. After facing my fears, I am so glad I came. I have realized that with determination, I can do anything I set my mind to do _Mnasha Grade 5 Student

 

Over a period of 10 weeks, our young scientists have been working on various projects in the first module of the SABIS^® Robotics Curriculum.

On the 92^nd Saudi National Day, the school held celebrations that started on September 15 and all through September 26 with a two-day holiday following the festivities. The celebrations began with students wearing green-colored outfits or the customary Saudi garb in honor of the Saudi National Day. A traditional tent was set up in the main playground area, echoing the long and rich history and tradition of Saudi Arabia. Candies were distributed in green boxes at the main entrance of the school. The campus was decorated with various small Saudi flags while a large flag decorated the winding staircase of the hall. These special celebrations were conducted with great fanfare, and we look forward to next year’s National Day celebrations.

It was a great way to bring the community together

 

To hone their artistic skills, grade 2 students were invited to the ART Room during the SLO period to learn how to paint on canvas.

It was an activity that showcased the varying skills of the students and put their creativity on display.

 

They were so happy that the school encouraged them to study more and improve their skills.

 

The purpose of space week is to boost the students’ creativity and responsibility. Space week encourages students to acquire presentation skills by enhancing their ability to present in front of others, to get used to stage fright, and allowing students to open up to their peers and improve their confidence.

Our Social Responsibility department passed by each class, informed them about space week, encouraged them, and kindly asked them to participate in the event. Students were required to research a particular topic related to space supported by a PowerPoint presentation to present their findings. Space week was a successful event, and our students were able to come up with creative projects and extraordinary presentations.

Ayah: At first, I felt nervous, but after a bit of reassurance from the SLO students, I felt encouraged enough to present in front of my classmates.

Talia: I had lots of fun while making the project with my friends.

During the SLO period, Students in grade 1 learned how traffic lights work and what the red, yellow, and green lights represent when they are on. The SLO teacher used a drawn bus and allowed the students to practice following traffic signals and bus rules.

80 students joined this year's junior and senior prom.  Current grade 11 and grade 10 students were invited paving the way for the first graduating class for next year.

A local DJ set the mood as the students were treated to Chinese food and cupcakes.  A photobooth complemented the setup and provided students with pictures to make this occasion a memorable one. As per tradition, students voted for the prom king and queen.

Many teachers and administrators helped plan the event and were very active during the night, helping to serve the food, and monitoring the dance floor.

To honor the Anfal martyrs, the SLO organized an assembly that included running while students from grade 1 to 11 looked on.

Awards were distributed to students and teachers whose families were affected.

Once a year, students get to bring out their best on Formal Day.

From classic suits to more casual pants with blazers and traditional thobes, the event showed off our young gentlemen. It even left some wondering if they had walked into a UN Council meeting or the Met Gala.

The event was filled with pride and fun for all the students.

It was an amazing day full of high spirits, everyone enjoyed that day – Bilal Mousalli (Social Studies Coordinator)

 

To honor mothers, the Student Life Organization held a Mother's Day event to which parents were invited.

The prefects spasred no effort in decorating the school in a mother's day theme and everyone was amazed at how beautifully it was done.  Students sang two songs in both Arabic and English to the big smiles of their audience, their parents, their teachers and the school administration.

To wind up the envent, both students and parents joined forces to work on an Art craft project related to the Mother's Day theme. 

It was an event to remember.·        

Guessing lantern riddles is a unique form of cultural and recreational activity at the Lantern Festival. To uphold the tradition, and with the help of a school management prefect, fifty riddles were tied to branches with red ribbons.

As riddles can enlighten the wisdom and cater to the festive atmosphere, many students took part in this activity which was both fun and challenging.

Bess Zheng (郑融清) of Grade 9B:

“I was very happy to get involved in the preparation for the celebration. Using some real branches I picked up from my neighborhood, I tried out a brave idea for the bulletin board. When the riddle tree was finished, I felt very very satisfied and proud of my work. When I heard appreciation from my peers, I felt everything was worth it.”

To celebrate Valentines's day, a tercet contest was organized by Student Life.

Almost all the new spring students took part in the contest. The SLO mailbox was flooded with long and short words with love for nature, friends, or mothers. The received tercets were in various languages, some in Chinese, some in English, and some in Japanese. A select number of tercets were printed out on letter papers of sweet pink or elegant backgrounds and showcased on a bulletin board. The display board was placed in a prominent place, where students and teachers admired the handiwork of the students. In twos and threes, they appreciated and discussed the tercets.

During the SL Period on Valentine’s Day, stickers were distributed to every student. Each one could nominate their three favorite tercets. The ten-best tercets were hand-written by their authors and displayed on the board until White Valentine’s Day (March 14^th).

A secret Valentine was also organized. Secret love letters were dropped into a hand-made mailbox and SLO prefects helped deliver the letters on the evening of Valentine’s Day.

Johnson Sun (孙祺轩) of Grade 10:

“I’m really impressed by our new students’ enthusiasm and talents. There’s one tercet in Japanese that I like best. By describing the dropping of a maple leaf, it shows a pining affection in a subtle but beautiful way.”

A surprise international breakfast event was organized for Grade 12 students by the SLO Department on February 7, 2022. A plan was put together by our prefects, cafeteria, and administration to ensure that Covid-19 restrictions were adhered to at all times.

For the breakfast to remain a surprise, the students were informed that they should go to the school auditorium and from there they were met with the smell of tantalizing food and an invigorating atmosphere.

I had just finished my Periodic tests and was told to be at the auditorium for a class photo. The moment I stepped foot inside, a huge surprise unveiled before my eyes. A huge thanks to all the teachers and the SLO department for the vibrant gathering and surprise. “Hamza Khan Grade 12”.

After our tiring Periodic, we were told to be at the auditorium for an advising session. We were instead surprised by a wonderful breakfast prepared by our amazing SLC. Thank you, Mr. Elie, the administration, and the teachers, for this memorable and fun gathering. “Sara Al Abdullatif Grade 12”.

After an amazing periodic with a confident mark, I was surprised that we will have our first seniors’ breakfast that was organized by the SLO. All of us want to thank the SLC, Administration, Teachers, and the Cafeteria staff for the best memories, and wonderful gathering and I hope we all meet sooner and quicker. “Ammar Al Maamari Grade 12”.

 

A closing ceremony was held to congratulate everyone and summarize their achievements and progress. To highlight this joyous occasion, clubs displayed their training results and their process to recruit students to join them.

The ceremony was hosted by the prefects who prepared for their roles very thoroughly and carefuly. 

Students and prefects were presented with certificates recognizing their hard work and strong ethics.

It was a memorable closing ceremony for a memorable term and we can't wait until we all get back together.

I am very honored to be the host of this activity. I felt very excited to attend the closing ceremony of SABIS for the first time. At the same time, I also strive to complete the corresponding tasks and do a good job in the ceremony. But unfortunately, the preparation time of this activity and the final exam was carried out at the same time. Therefore, I just had a short time to write my draft. Through this opportunity, I also learned how to manage my time better. If I get the chance to host next time, I’ll do better and contribute more. At the same time, we summarized everyone's achievements and progress this semester, and we hope that everyone will continue their efforts in the next term. Finally, SABIS will always be a family!

To educate and teach the students about Egypt and its treasures including the Pyramids, the Pharaohs,  the Mummies, The River Nile, the Gods and Goddesses, Primary students from ISC-Lahore researched all these topics assiduously on myOn and Britannica to plan an incredible virtual tour of Ancient Egypt.

Through their tremendously enjoyable research, the team produced a unique project and unforgettable memories while stitching costumes, memorizing dialogues, recording videos, collaborating virtually, and staying positive throughout the challenging times while the pandemic was peaking in Pakistan. This is an example of the resilience and commitment showcased by the ISC- Lahore community.

Watch the video here 

The virtual tour to Ancient Egypt was a beautiful idea to appreciate & acknowledge the success of the OPT OUT students. It gave them an opportunity to not only utilize their free time wisely but also made the students explore new horizons. My daughter, Zahra and I thoroughly enjoyed each and every step, starting from gathering information, working on the costume, practicing dialogues, and finally making the videos.I am deeply thankful to the team for their tremendous efforts for keeping students involved in such educational activities.

The yearly talent show is a staple event at SIS-Adma. Having to transition into an online school was not going to alter that. Students auditioned, rehearsed and performed in the online talent show so that they could share their wonderful talents with their peers and bring joy to all those who watched.

On April 27, grade 4-6 students finally had the opportunity to experience a familiar event: the talent show. Despite it being online, there was still a lot of details to cover, from auditions to weekly rehearsals, but it was definitely worth it. It is the event of the year that all students and teachers look forward to, where the artists and creators of tomorrow are born. The end result was 10 participants with a wide range of talents. The final group consisted of three piano players, four dancers, two singers, and the one and only magician.

From fun magic tricks to playing the piano, each participant was unique in expressing his/her talent. It is well known that dancing is one of the most effective ways to convey one’s sentiments by creating the choreography of one’s dreams. Each dance was diverse and varied from hip-hop to contemporary dance, but they all had one thing in common, they left us mesmerized. Others gave voice to their talents through singing, and blew us away with their flawless performances. Our two powerful singers showed extreme potential for the future.

When I first auditioned for the talent show, I was slightly nervous.  However, when the music started, I just danced! After I found out that I had made it past the auditions, I was really proud of myself. We had many practice sessions with Ms. Suzanne and Mr. Elie. They helped us with the setup, the music, and most importantly gave us great advice. Also, Ms. Christina, the SLC, would come to encourage us in every way she could. I truly appreciate all of the effort and love they put into this so that we could have the most successful online talent show. Lama Jerdak – Grade 6 

To highlight and celebrate the 100^th days of learning, fun and exciting activities were planned for the students.

From February the 1^st to February the 5^th, the SLO prefects held amazing activities for all students.  From creating a moustache with Grade 1 students to making 100-day drawings with Grades 3 and 4, to hosting a  Wacky Friday in KG.

On Friday the 5^th, the school had a Retro Outfit Day where many students wore their favorite 70s and 80s outfits, such as baggy jumpers, bomber Jackets, ponchos, and even some flares and bell-bottoms.

The Poetry Creative Writing Skills event kick started in 2020 and ran over the winter break in order to keep students engaged online over the holidays. It was done by assigning themes to students based on their Grade. For example, Grade 3-4 students were assigned the “Underwater” theme  whereas other grades were assigned different ones.

All entries were received online through Microsoft Forms and with the help of Prefect Judges and English Teachers the winners were picked. All students received a certificate of participation and were congratulated for taking part in the competition.

This event inspired creative thinking and was a nice was to keep poetry alive in such young students as it is often overlooked – Poetry Club Leader

 

 

A school year wouldn't be complete without a display ot musical talent.  To this end, the music teachers helped their students in putting together a music show.

26 students signed up and entertained their class and teachers by playing a variety of musical instruments as well as singing popular songs that may have prompted other students to sing along at home.  the whole event was hosted on the TEAMS platform and inspired many students to start learning to play an instrument.

All Staff were very impressed with the high standard that the students of Grade 4 – 6 had for music at such a young age. It was really nice to see students play music like that and be appreciated as they have not had a chance to show off such skills with covid -  Mr Conor

 

As a tradition, the school holds a yearly Senior Breakfast for Senior students.

In keeping with tradition and despite the current situation, a socially distanced Senior Breakfast was held at the school. Groups of three students sat together in a picnic and park theme style while social distancing . With some nice music playing int the backgorund, they played pictionary and hangman while eating.  A photo booth was set up to capture the occasion and provide students with a souvenir for the future.

This event was such a nice event as it made all the seniors forget that there was covid for a bit as we got to have our own event in school which was run smoothly. Senior Student. 

 

Reading is a skill which opens minds and doors to new ideas. Good vocabulary, spellings, grammar, and writting skills are just other benefits derived from reading.

Students from Book Buzz Club (Grade 5-6) conducted a Book Talk on their favorite author, David Walliams. This exclusive talk was hosted by eight students to not only promote reading but to inform ISC- Students and the community how engaging these books are and can be a great addition to their bookshelf. During a time like this, the students enjoyed being able to do such an activity remotely.
