We made it through our first week, staggering our pupils gradually onto the Primary School Campus under strict safety protocols and supervision. A big thank you to our Infant and Junior School VPs, Teachers, Administrators, Security Staff, Parents and everyone for working together as a team to make this happen. Well done!

Our Infant School recently celebrated Rare Diseases Day in a different way this year.
In the past, the entire Infant School community would come out together dressed in white tops, a pair of blue jeans and have either their hands or faces painted to show their love and support for people and children living with rare diseases in Ghana and around the world.
Sena Asimenu, one of our own students in Class 5 Meranti of the Junior School participated in the most recent edition of The Spelling Bee and went all the way to the Finals. Congratulations Sena! You have made us proud! Keep soaring!
This year’s International Mathematical Olympiad was held in St Petersburg, Russia. The competition had 105 countries represented by 616 contestants. Africa’s brightest prospect Master Roni Edwin, an Upper 6th Form Student of Ghana International School made the headlines by being the first Ghanaian to win an IMO (International Mathematical Olympiad) bronze medal. He had the highest score in all of Africa, an achievement worth mentioning.

It has been a rigorous but fulfilling week of our ongoing VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) here at GIS. We are determined to continue teaching and learning in spite of all the uncertainties that surround us. We continue to push ourselves by finding more creative and engaging ways to make our virtual learning environment worthwhile and effective. A very big thank you to our wonderful and dedicated team of Educators who continue to make this possible. It’s been a smooth transition so far and we look forward to many more engaging weeks ahead.
