A big thanks to Grade 6 for providing one of our final grade assemblies this year. 

We were all very impressed to hear second and third language students stand-up and present a Haiku that they had written themselves. Not only is the poetry a challenge, but so is presenting to your school. 

We also had some movement composition and dance presented to the school in addition to some very well presented slideshows. 

Thank you for your efforts grade 6 and Mr. Andrew!

Gratulerer med Dagen Hagaløkka skole! 

Happy 40th Anniversary to one of the local schools, Hagaløkka primary school. 

Hagaløkka school is now 40 years, established in 1974. The principal of Akser Internataional School was lucky enough to attend the celebrations and was very impressed with the enthusiasm and engagement of everyone there. 

We simply want to wish Bjørn-Erik, all his staff and the children of Hagaløkka school a very happy anniversary. Enjoy the celebrations!

Grade 2 have put a very nice display out for all members of AIS community to come see. It is located outside the classroom so please take time to have a look. 

Each student has displayed a different style of home from around the world. This is a great example of an international focus on one of our units, allowing students to also bring their own cultural influence into their learning. 

Please make sure you take the time to check out Miss Debra's grade 2 blog, especially the class time section that has great examples of the students in their learning environment.
