A new school year and the best community vibes at ISSH Welcome Picnic!🧺✨

From grade 1 to 12 setting up creative stalls to raise funds for their class boxes, to music and great food, campus was full of energy.

Huge love to our amazing students, staff and families for making it so special. 💗

The classrooms are ready, the lesson plans are in place and our teachers are eager to start the new school year! On Thursday morning, we will welcome our students for the start of the new school year.

Since opening last week, our Early Learning Centre team has already made a great start with our youngest learners. On Thursday, all our staff came together for our 'OneSchool' meeting, followed by a fantastic team-building afternoon on Friday.

This week has been all about thoughtful preparation. Our teachers have organised learning spaces, set up new classes and prepared every detail to welcome their students, while also working in curriculum workshops enhancing teaching and learning at ISSH.

Swipe through to see a few glimpses from our preparation week. We can't wait to see everyone tomorrow!

Designed for students, or designed for the convenience of adults?

When Carla Dabau joined ISSH, she had this very question in mind, which forms the basis of her upcoming book, Designing Intentional Classrooms.

What was her very first mission on campus? Transforming her own Grade 5 classroom into a living case study for inclusive, intentional learning environments.

It wasn't just about aesthetics; it was about reimagining the purpose of learning spaces. By treating the physical room as the 'third teacher', every desk arrangement, seating option, and layout sent an intentional message to her students: You belong here. You are capable. This space is yours.

At ISSH, we believe that our physical environment should be as dynamic and forward-thinking as our IB PYP curriculum. Carla’s Grade 5 classroom was just the beginning, and it has already sparked an inspiring, school-wide conversation about how we design spaces for our students.

Just imagine if our classrooms were designed with the same level of care and intention as our daily lessons.

Meet Carla Dabau, our Grade 5 teacher, learning environment designer and soon-to-be published author!

Her upcoming book, Designing Intentional Classrooms: How to Create Inclusive Learning Environments, is the beautiful result of years of driven curiosity and a simple, powerful question: How can our physical spaces better support our students?

In her book, Carla reveals how educators can transform standard classrooms into intentional, equitable and child-centred spaces where every student feels included and inspired to learn.

At ISSH, we believe that when our educators innovate and share their expertise with the world, our entire community grows. Because when we inspire each other, we all thrive.

Stay tuned for more details on the release coming soon!
