Corelli Strings perform in assembly

The Corelli Strings gave a fun performance of “Chicken in the Kitchen” and a spooky performance of “Abandoned Funhouse” at assembly on Monday. It is wonderful to see the focus and the togetherness that playing in a group brings out amongst the students. It was a very pleasant surprise when children I don’t yet know came up to me in the playground to tell me that they enjoyed the performance in assembly. How lucky we are to be in this supportive community!

IPS students achieve in instrumental exams

Getting ready for an instrumental exam involves months of preparation and much persistence. Taking on this considerable challenge really pushes skills to new heights. In assembly this Monday we acknowledged all the IPS children who have made this special effort this year. At IPS we had 16 children do an exam this term and certificates were presented at assembly.
