Nicola and Donald Rice, British and American; Willow (14), Eden (12) and Brook (10)

Australian International School

The children have been attending AIS since we arrived in Singapore almost two years ago, and they’re thriving. They grewup in Switzerland, attending a local school in Zurich. The Heads of School, Heads of Year and the teachers are extremely committed, caring and passionate about educating children. They have got to know each of our children as individuals, which has been a key part in them adapting to their new environment, enhanced by the welcoming AIS community. The Admissions Team took time to understand the background, interests and specific needs of each of our

children, so we knew we found the right school! AIS has an outstanding academic record combined with an extensive range of sports, creative arts, design and technology, languages (Mandarin and European), music and drama programmes. The CCA programme has something to suit everyone’s interests, from novice to expert. Willow and Brook recently attended AIS’s inspirational Outdoor Education Programme (specifically tailored to each year group and part of the curriculum). They absolutely loved each day, experiencing white- water rafting, overnight camping and cooking, just to name a few. It helped

them to build their resilience, self- confidence and ability to work with other students. There is a consistency across the teachers that embraces a passion for learning, a culture of moral commitment and a high level of pastoral care, combined with a sense that learning should be engaging and fun. AIS promotes resilience, respect, integrity, fair play and teamwork, and every student is given the opportunity to fulfil their potential.
