On 10-11 November 2023, the RAISE2023 6th Asian International Schools Conference and 30 Years of International Schools Awards Ceremony was held in Hong Kong, China. As the flagship school of ISA International Education Group, ISA Science City School for Children of Expatriates was honoured with the "Special Sharing Award (School)" at the ceremony!
From Monday to Friday, teachers organised a variety of events that offer opportunities for school-wide participation. There was a focus on a technique or skill for each day of the week. They were designed to involve wordplay, presentation, and fluency with the primary focus on the English language.
As a school community, we all want the best for our students when it comes to their education. It is our goal to help them learn, grow, and succeed in their academic journey. The Standardized Assessments system in ISA Science City allows us to keep track of the progress of our students and the strength of our academic programmes, helping us ensure our students are getting the education they need and deserve.
The first ICU Cheerleading World Cup Competition was held from 6 to 8 October 2023 in Seoul, South Korea. Nearly 100 teams from more than 20 countries and regions participated in this cheerleading event of the highest level in the world. Michelle Huang, a Grade 10 student from ISASC, was part of the Chinese team that won the Youth Coed Median Championship, the first time a Chinese team has won the championship in the same type of international event, through three days, three games, and more than 80 teams competing on the same stage. This is also the first time for the Chinese team to win the championship in the same type of international competition, which is a historic moment worth remembering.
Wellbeing is fundamentally important to the overall health, development, and happiness of all people. Wellbeing focuses on the balance between the social, emotional, and physical aspects of a person’s life. At ISA Science City, we feel it is important that students and staff balance these aspects of their lives to achieve a sense of wellbeing.
G12 Students recently participated in their Theory of Knowledge Exhibition, where they had an opportunity to share their work with the ISASC community. The Exhibition is one of two assessments in the TOK course, which focuses on the ways in which we acquire, verify, and communicate knowledge. Students are tasked with curating the exhibition which explores a predetermined prompt and the ways in which the prompt manifests itself in the real world. It was a remarkable opportunity for students and teachers, family, and peers to engage in long form discussion of knowledge issues.
