Dear Parents,
Welcome back! It has been fabulous to have most of the students back in school. Classrooms have been filled with smiles, joy, happiness and fun. We have very much focused on mental wellbeing; settling the children into their new classes, introducing new routines and reminding them of school hygiene procedures. We have also focused on curriculum enrichment and setting up new measurable academic & therapy goals for this year.
Thank you to everybody for adapting to the new schedules/ batches and for being considerate to others by wearing a face mask at drop off and collection. We really appreciate your support and hope this, alongside our in-school measures, will help ensure our children get a continuous, quality education this year with less interruptions due to COVID. So ... welcome to CCIS to our new families and welcome back to all our returning families. I often say what a privilege it is to have your children in our care. It has been great having them all back in school this past week.
Important Dates to Remember in September:
-
Sep 1-16 : Screening Weeks

Sep 19 : Start of Term 1
Dear Parents,
As we are approaching the last stretch of the school year, we hope that the students accomplished their goals and are ready to move to the next level.

We advise you to minimize the students’ absences as it will negatively affect their progress.

Dear Parents,
March will be very special this year @ CCIS with the Holy Ramadan falling on it. Within our school, we emphasize the values of Kindness, Honesty, and Respect. In addition to this, Ramadan is a time for reflection and community, and very much for tolerance and consideration of others. This all fits in very closely with the aims that we all have for how our children grow up, and the kind of people we wish them to become.
Our students’ school timing during Ramadan will be from 9AM – 1PM. Even though the hours will be shorter, we will continue to make the best of each day for our academic learning, and for the personal values and consideration which are so important throughout the Holy Month.
Kindly note March important dates & Events:
