Dear Middle School Parents,
There is never a dull moment in our school. Our High School Chennai Model United Nations (CHEMUN) Conference begins today. For the second year in a row, we will have a delegation of AISC middle school students. I am always amazed with our middle school students and their ability to live the mission showing courage and confidence to partake in a highly regarded event with much older students . Congratulations to the following delegates for being selected to represent our proud middle school. Please click on this link for further details of what country and committee they represent.

International Schools Theatre Association (ISTA)
Congratulations to all the students selected to go to International Schools Theatre Association (ISTA) in Colombo, Sri Lanka from 11-13 November. The theme of this year’s festival is Creating Karma. From the ISTA website about Sri Lanka: “Sri Lanka is a country that maintains total respect for its traditions, rituals and beliefs. Believing strongly in auspicious days, karma and superstition. Sometimes waiting years for the right day to come along before doing something significant. This is a festival that will explore tradition and ritual. Asking: how can we intrinsically link ancient belief into the modern world? With a visit to one of the largest, most sacred and beautiful temples in the country to explore ceremony, superstition and stories from the past that might then inspire our pieces of theatre.” Students will depart on Thursday, 10 November and arrive back home on Monday, 14 November.
