Well done to Mr. Andrew and the staff and students of Asker International School.
It was a beautiful day and a great opportunity to finish off the day in the sunshine with a few games. Students competed in their houses against each other. The activities were simple and fun and focused on the students working as a team, showing respect and communicating effectively.
A big thanks goes to our guest coach, Lizzie Williams. Lizzie has bee here with us on Friday 27th and Monday 30th May, running training sessions in phonics for both our staff and parents.

Lizzie provided a good overview of phonics for all our staff, both TA and teaching staff. Teachers were very engaged on Friday, and although phonics will primarily be delivered in grades 1 and 2, it was a useful exercise for all teachers to see how reading and writing is developed in the younger years.
On Monday, Lizzie went on to work with parents, explaining how the phonics program worked and informing them how they can help at home, by creating an environment where reading is nurtured and celebrated and a language-rich culture exists.
Thank you again to Lizzie for her engaging sessions on Friday and Monday!
What a great event! What wonderful weather!
Mr. Andrew organises yet another wonderful sporting event for the students of AIS.
Grade 6 and 7 students did a very good job of getting the younger students involved in the activities. There was a great spread of suitable activities for the younger children, from 3-legged races, limbo and relay, not to mention face painting and neclace-making!
A big thank you to Mr. Andrew for his efforts, to the students and staff for their proactive approach and to the parental volunteers on the day.
Miss Anja has been very busy and industrious in preparing a Paul Klee exhibition which all grades have been working on.
You are welcome to visit the school to see this exhibition - It is located in the large room just past the main entrance and reception, located on the right-hand-side.
If you are collecting your child, it is a good opportunity for you to go in and let them explain the artwork. Feel free to show others and take pictures.
A big thanks to Miss Anja for organising this display for the school community.
