Dear SIS Families and Staff Thank you so much for your fantastic participation in the working day on Friday 3 October. It was heartwarming to see that so many SIS families reserved this sunny afternoon to help reorganize the equipment at school. We managed to accomplish a lot even though our list of jobs seemed to be growing as we kept working . It was amazing to see such an enthusiastic group of people working so well together. We wouldn’t have lasted so long without PTC’s healthy snacks and a lovely break outside in the warm weather. We started out learning which room is which (ASP? Art room? KS3? Storage room?) and ended up creating new functional solutions that the students and staff will definitely appreciate . Thank you so much for your support!
