G.I.S. Primary ConnectEd

Interested in learning more about the IB Primary Years Program at GIS? Our ConnectEd sessions are here to help. Whether you're new to the PYP or already familiar with it, these sessions offer insights into how your child learns with us.

Please note that the timing of these sessions varies. They can be weekly, bi-weekly, or sometimes in collaboration with our secondary school, providing a comprehensive view.

All sessions are announced in our Weekly Newsletter, and we also send out reminder SMS messages to keep you updated.

If you would like to request a specific ConnectEd topic for parents, please send your request to pypoffice_gis@gemsedu.com.
