Year 2

TISKL Year 2 2026

Important Dates: (New Items are shown in blue)

Wednesday 8th April: TISKL Raya Celebration – We encourage all students to come dressed in their finest traditional attire. Whether it’s a Baju Kurung, Baju Melayu, Cheongsam, Saree, or any cultural dress that represents your heritage, let’s make the school a sea of colour and tradition!

🍲 The Potluck: "Healthy & Hearty"

Sharing a meal is the heart of Hari Raya. To ensure we have a balanced feast (and to avoid the usual "sugar crash"), we are kindly asking for healthy food contributions this year.

While we love a good pineapple tart, we often end up with an abundance of cookies and donuts. This year, let’s try to bring:

Savoury Favourites: Home-cooked noodles, fried rice, or mini sandwiches.

Protein Hits: Satay, baked chicken, or boiled eggs.

Fresh & Green: Fruit platters, salads, or fresh spring rolls.

Traditional Staples: Ketupat, lemang, or sayur lodeh.

Note: Please ensure all food is halal and clearly labelled if it contains common allergens like peanuts or seafood.

Students are invited to dress up as a book character of their choice, paired with their regular school shoes and socks for comfort and safety. The character does not need to be related to the books currently being read in class. If your child prefers not to participate, they should attend school in their regular school uniform. We kindly encourage students to choose book characters rather than superhero characters for this event.

First Week of School 2026

Please see below for your child's PE day.

2T, and 2A will be on MONDAY

2Y and 2L will be on TUESDAY

2O and 2B will be on THURSDAY

Welcome back to school, dearest students and parents! For new families, welcome to TISKL!

Our lessons will begin 7:50 am promptly. Class attendance is updated on a daily basis on the iSams platform by 8:00 am, thus if your child turns up after 8:00 am, he or she is considered late to school. In the first week of school, you will receive a welcome letter and email from your child's class teacher. Here are some other things that you should take note of:

You may send all books and stationery to school, as many of these items are kept in the classrooms. Kindly ensure that your child's belongings are clearly labelled with his/her name and class.
Please make sure that your child has his/her breakfast and lunch meals ready unless he/she is purchasing food from the cafeteria. In this case, ensure that your child has sufficient balance in his/her student ID tag card via the Vircle app. Pre-ordered meals can also be done on the app. If you have concerns about your Vircle app, kindly ask our admissions staff to assist you.
Our dismissal time is at 2:50 pm (Mondays to Thursdays, plus minus 3 minutes) and 12:15 pm (Fridays only, plus minus 3 minutes). Given the ongoing construction work, we kindly ask that you manage your time wisely for the pick-up times. Van and bus students will have their pick-up points by their respective drivers. If there is a change in your child's pick up (different person picking up, early pick-up or late pick-up), please be sure to inform your child's class teacher and Year Leader (Ms. Stephanie) accordingly.
