Students from both International Schools of Choueifat in Egypt: Cairo and City of 6th of October were invited to join an Archeological Dig under the sponsorship of the Children’s Museum in Indianapolis, USA, which is one of the largest children’s museums in the world. This museum has been advising in the design of the new Suzanne Mubarak Children's Museum in Heliopolis which is now under construction.
This year in KG 1 through Grade 3 all students took part in the peacekeeper activity. Peacekeepers is a program designed to help with character development and prevent violence in school. It is built on six principles and students took part in classrooms activities to learn about these.
Probably the activity that has given rise to the greatest show of talent and enthusiasm from the students has been the Social Studies project assignment, across the four year-groups. We worked individually or in groups to make some marvellous posters and 3-D models, on subjects related to the work studied in class. We then gave presentations to the class. Some of the subjects chosen were:
The Wizard of Oz Early June saw the presentation of the musical The Wizard of Oz performed by students in grades 2, 3 and 4 and directed by Mr. Jack Tomlinson and Ms Mary Saydein.
On the 8th of May, The International School of Choueifat – Cairo celebrated 15 years in the eternal city of Cairo.
