It was a wonderful evening of music and drama for the NIS community as the Gr. 8-10 students put on amazing performances on Tuesday evening! It was a marvelous end to the semester to see the students passionately playing a number of instruments so skillfully and performing a variety of genres in drama. Great job Gr.8-10 students!

The entire Secondary School bustled with activities, sessions and projects on Monday and Tuesday for the Secondary Core Days. Students in Gr. 6-9 were engaged in self-directed activities which they have been working on as their SDG projects. The Gr. 11 and 12 students were engaged in work related to Theory of Knowledge, Extended Essays, science experiments and theater production. Finally, the Gr. 10 continued their work on their Personal Projects, the culminating project-based experience of the MYP in which students produce connected learning and product goals aligned with their interests.

A Scene from Macbeth at Gr. 6 and 7 Arts Night

The Gr. 6 & 7 Arts Night was an excellent opportunity to welcome parents to the school to enjoy entertainment put on by their students, including some modern takes on shadow play versions of classic fairy tales, melodic music performances, and Macbeth, in Shakesperean tongue, but with NIS style! And as a part of their CAS project, a couple of students volunteered to broadcast it all live via the NIS Facebook page (look for other arts nights next month where they will do the same!). Great job to the students who performed and gave it their all on the big stage!
