Embracing the Lifelong Learning as we breathe the International Baccalaureate curriculum, teachers are also ongoing learners. During the Professional Development Day 2, PYP teachers recalled the five elements of PYP Curriculum by having a PYP Transdisciplinary Cafe. Knowledge, Concepts, Learner Profiles, Approaches to Learning, as well as Action were represented by each booth offering pizza, cookies, chocolate, traditional snacks, and Thai tea. Learning can be that delicious!

Grade 9 IB MYP displayed their energetic cheerfulness with their original writing and creativity during their “Slam Poetry” activity. As slam poetry is a form of performance, the climax of creativity strung together their posters, dynamic writing, and brilliant performance. Each student focused on an intriguing idea, researched details, ultimately using their passion and energy into the final performances. The highlight of the concept was students exploring topics like youth empowerment, body shaming, humanity gone wrong with a sinkhole environmental impact and the greed for money being a game and taking over humanity.
Through this activity students were extremely expressive, developed exceeding amount of self-confidence in their skill and abilities. Above all they learnt the true meaning of being an IB MYP risk taker as they received positive feedback and a standing ovation from the audience.
We are proud to announce that one of our existing Grade 12 students, Katlyn Olivia Yusie, has been accepted by a prestigious university. The strong commitment of the student, along with the support of the dedicated teachers & the YIS curriculum (IB Diploma Programme) which is recognized worldwide, have made it possible for this to happen.
We are looking forward to sharing more outstanding achievements from our students at YIS.
