Alisa Kurilova:

Hi! My name is Alisa Kurilova, and I’m honoured to serve as the Head of the Future Skills Academy this year. I'm excited to step in as part of the Student ELT and bring fresh and meaningful initiatives to our school community. It's my honour to finally be able to add more opportunities related to your lifelong goals, the kind that actually prepare you for the future (because apparently AI can’t do everything for us… yet). My goal this year is to listen to student voices and really hear what ideas you guys have to create opportunities for your future!

Vihaan Gadkary: 

Hey GIS, Vihaan here, your new Head of House for this year. As an individual passionate about growth, sports and leadership, I’m here to reignite our passion for the House system. This year envisages Houses fused through growth opportunities in arts, sports, academics and more to enhance your community to achieve personal development. Together, let's build an environment of rhythm, pride and ambitious momentum.

Magda Wachowicz:

Hi, my name is Magda, and I’m so happy to be a part of the StudentELT this year and help spread art and creativity around our school. I have always had a strong connection to the Arts, which is why I’m so glad to be taking part in growing that creativity in the GIS hallways. I would love to help all of the artists show and present their abilities, and for the non-artist students to learn how to appreciate and love art too! 

Alwy Badawy: 

Hey Jaguars, my name is Alwy. I can’t wait to start working with my fellow student athletes and finally make the Jaguars at GIS feel as important as the effort we put into our academic reputation. My vision for the future of sport at GIS is to acknowledge and highlight individual and team excellence, embracing school culture, and enhancing the overall enthusiasm around our Jaguars teams at GIS.

Nour Hamroush:

Hi! My name is Nour, and I'm the new Head of Service and Sustainability in GIS. As I take on this role, I aim to transform our school into a place where helping others becomes a habit rather than a task, and allow students to engage in opportunities to help save our planet, our people, and feel encouraged to take action and strive. I hope to be able to convey the voices of all students because I know together we can shape a community of action, awareness and genuine change while working with new people and feeling like part of a community that truly cares. Always remember, even the smallest act can make the biggest difference, so never stop trying and take that first step!
