WHOLE SCHOOL
Dear IICS Community,
We are looking forward to seeing you all at the IICS & PTA Welcome Picnic and FunRun at Marmara Campus on Saturday, September 23rd from 10:00-13:30. Please don't forget to bring some cash to support Student Clubs Fundraisers and purchase the PTA merchandise.
We would like to inform you that there was a brief incident on our Marmara campus today, where a small number of our community may have witnessed a heated argument between two members of our staff. Our leadership team resolved the situation immediately and this involved no one else in our community. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,
Nicolaas Mostert, Head of School

SECONDARY SCHOOL
Dear Secondary Parents,
This week has been a fantastic week of activity in the Secondary school. We started the week with our Back to School Open Day. It was our pleasure to welcome you into school so that you could connect with your child's teachers, tour the campus and hear presentations from some key teams in our Secondary school. In addition to this, it was great to see many of you taking the opportunity to have lunch with your child in our cafeteria as this is something we do not often get the chance to do. Read more..
We are excited to inform you that our Secondary Assembly scheduled for Wednesday, October 11th, 2023, will focus on Class Trip Celebrations and presenting the 2022-23 Personal Project Certificates as well as the 2022-23 Honor Roll Certificates. As the date approaches, we will provide the Secondary with more information about the assembly.
