Appreciation Cards

Across the school, we have had a wonderful week in which kindness has been a focus for everyone. In a range of ways, we have explored Random Acts of Kindness; the importance of active listening; expressing gratitude to people who help us; having empathy for those who are different to us; and celebrating our differences. 

Teachers as Lifelong Learners

This week, Mr Martin Newell, PYP Coordinator at RIS reflects on the role our talented and highly qualified staff has to play on the educational experience of students. by At RIS, we strongly believe that we are all learning together- students, parents and teachers. Just as we want students to be curious, open minded inquirers, we want our staff to model this as well. 

STEAM Day Roundup - 8 November

Every year on 8 November , the fields of science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics take the spotlight for National STEM/STEAM Day.  Here at RIS Rome, there was plenty happening across school. 

PYP Insights: Exploring Balance and Wellbeing

As adults, we know how hard it is to find balance in our life. At RIS we help students to understand the importance of finding this balance from an early age. They learn to appreciate there is a time to be quietly focused on a task individually, a time to work in a more vocal way, collaborating with their classmates and time to just have fun and disconnect.

Year 6 are thinkers

This week, Mr Newell - Incoming PYP Coordinator, explores the IB attribute of Thinkers. "We use critical and creative thinking skills to analyse and take responsible action on complex problems."Our students are explicitly taught a range of thinking skills- learning to break complex problems down into simpler steps."
