Lunar New Year Celebrations - January 2023
Students in Primary and Elementary Schools celebrated Lunar New Year on Saturday, 21 January, which happened to be the Lunar New Year date this year. A Dragon Dance was performed and students enjoyed many traditional games, calligraphy and crafts. It was a wonderful experience and we thank all of those from our community who helped make this such a special event for our families.

Learning through Literature
Learning through Literature
The FIS PS librarian, Mrs Fields, has been intentionally diversifying the library through exploring authors from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, including more languages, and sharing books which reflect the diversity of our community and address EJB topics explicitly and implicitly. We thank Mrs Fields for making the library such a joyful and welcoming place for students to learn and grow together!
