Art, Mindset & Tradition: Vijaya Mohan at IFS! 🪔🎨

Our school entrance has never looked more vibrant! World-renowned artist and Guinness World Record holder @rangolivijaya joined us to craft a magnificent Rangoli for Deepavali. 🌸

Vijaya taught our students that Rangoli designs draw inspiration directly from nature and light, incorporating flowers, plants, animals, and candles to symbolize harmony and warmth. More than just an artwork, it represents goodwill, kindness, and welcoming everyone with an open heart. 💖

As our students watched her create this intricate design, Vijaya passed on an essential lesson in patience, mental focus, and meditation. Her message to our young learners? Colors and art hold the power to bring positivity and light, even during difficult times. 💫

Living in Singapore gives our IFS community the unique opportunity to dive directly into rich local cultural traditions. Our students asked endless questions, shared beautiful moments of dialogue, and broadened their horizons through firsthand experience. 🌍✨

Getting ready to roll back to school safely! 🪖🚲

We hope you’re enjoying a wonderful and restful break! As we prepare to kick off the second half of this term, we’d like to re-share Teresa’s great video project on helmet safety. It’s a gentle reminder to our entire community, not only to protect your head, but to keep all essential road rules in mind as everyone commutes back to campus. Whether you’re a student, parent, or staff member, keeping our roads safe is a shared responsibility!

Here are the key requirements set by the Land Transport Authority (LTA) to review before stepping back onto your bike:
• Helmet on, always! Ensure your helmet is properly fitted before setting off. 🪖 
• Follow the flow: Always obey traffic signals and ride in the same direction as traffic. 
• Stay to the left: Keep as close as practicable to the left-hand side of the road. 
• Single file: Ride in single file on single-lane roads and during bus lane operating hours. 
• Stay predictable: Maintain a steady course—avoid sudden swerves or weaving. 
• Eyes on the road: Never use a mobile phone while riding, and stay fully alert to pedestrians and drivers. 📱🚫 
• Be seen: Always use a white front light and a red rear light when cycling in the dark or early mornings. 💡

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, look out for one another, and let’s keep our school community and surrounding neighborhood safe as we start this next chapter together on Monday! 💙

Unforgettable Memories in Vietnam! 🇻🇳

Mid-October was all about cultural immersion, hands-on learning, and discovery for our 10th-grade students in Southern Vietnam!

Here are the highlights from their journey 📸:
🌱 Local School Exchange: Sharing games and smiles with pupils at Đồng Phú primary school. 
🚴 Delta Life: Biking through rural trails, boat rides along the Mekong, and discovering traditional artisan workshops. 
🎨 Hands-On Workshops: Vietnamese cooking classes, conical hat painting, and learning Viet Vo Dao martial arts! 
📚 History & Culture: Exploring HCMC landmarks, visiting the War Remnants Museum, and attending a lecture on Vietnamese heritage.

A huge shoutout to our students for their enthusiasm, creativity, and open-mindedness throughout the trip, and for filming all the footage for this recap, as well as to our teachers coming along! 🎓✨

Alumni Spotlight: Welcome back to Lisa & Gwenaëlle (Class of 2025)! 🎓✨

We were thrilled to welcome back two of our recent graduates to IFS!
Lisa spent 8 years at IFS in the International Section, which boosted her English proficiency. Having taken Math, Physics, and Earth & Life Sciences, she’s now pursuing a Maths & Physics Prépa in Lyon, aiming for a career in research or primary teaching.
Gwenaëlle joined IFS for 3 years and took the Theater option, a game-changer that helped her overcome her shyness and seamlessly integrate into university life! Now at UTC Compiègne, her artistic passion for drawing is guiding her toward industrial design.

Looking back on their years in Singapore, both agree that the strength of IFS lies in its people. Thanks to the personalized guidance of their teachers, especially Mrs Ongaro, who helped them navigate Parcoursup to find their true path, they felt supported every step of the way. Gwenaëlle highlighted the strong sense of solidarity within the school. From unforgettable school trips to Berlin, Pondicherry, and Krabi to discovering their future callings, their journey is a testament to the power of a supportive community.

🎬 Their final message to our students: « Make sure to enjoy every moment of your time in Singapore, because it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience! »

Stand Together: Anti-Bullying Day at IFS 💙

At IFS, creating a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for our students is always a top priority. Today for Anti-Bullying Day, our IFS students showed up in full support to promote kindness, respect, and empathy across our campus! 🤝

Our students got involved wearing special bracelets as a visible pledge of their support and commitment to standing up against bullying. They also participated in interactive workshops, quizzes, and scenario-based activities to learn how to identify, address, and stop bullying. Learning how to recognize, prevent, and respond to bullying empowers them to create a safer environment for everyone.

Every action counts in building a safe space for all. Thank you to our students, our infirmary counselling center and staff for making this day a impactful success. Let’s keep supporting one another every single day!

Unlocking Excellence for Our Future Leaders! 🎓

We were thrilled to welcome Thomas Lagathu, Director of the Concours SESAME, to the 3C at IFS!
Thomas held an exclusive information session for our Seconde, Première, and Terminale students, sharing key insights on how to prepare for this major higher education entrance exam.

Every year, many of our graduates successfully gain admission to prestigious business schools accessible through Concours Sésame, including ESSEC, EM Lyon, SKEMA, NEOMA, and KEDGE.

A huge thank you to Thomas Lagathu for taking the time to meet, inspire and guide our students as they prepare for their next academic journey; and to the orientation team for the organisation. 👏✨
