STEP BACK

A healthy atmosphere at home and at school will create a sense of emotional safety and encourages well-being. By establishing essential agreements and practical routines within loving environments, our children will experience success and significance which is so important in the development of self-worth.

The creative pages that follow make us feel proud. The academic, cultural and sporting activities evidence the high standard of teaching and learning that the IB PYP approach to learning promotes and that our UISG community embraces. Our appreciation goes to all staff, students and parents for their commitment and passion in making things happen well.
