- Dear Parents
-
- Well,
this term comes to a close just as it started – in a whirl of
activity. The last few days have seen a number of sports and social
events that I think help to make us a thriving and rounded community.
-
 Mufti Day
-
Mufti Day is a termly event and one that allows us
to make a donation to charity. Children pay RM5 for the privilege of
not wearing uniform to school and a worthy cause benefits. It has also
become an occasion when the PTA offers for sale a delicious range of
cakes, snacks and other gastronomic delights. It is a lot of work but
it raises money for the “little extras” that make a big difference
to the school. I would like to extend my sincere thanks for all the
preparation, cooking and hard work that took place under a recently
sweltering sun. The day was a resounding and well-deserved success.

- Easter Egg Competition
- The
painted eggs entered for the Easter Egg competition looked lovely and
judging them was a hard task. However, the eventual winners were
Marcus Heywood (Year 2) in the 7 and under category and Jing Yi (Year
5) in the 8 and over category. Congratulations to them - and my thanks
to all competitors for contributing to a lovely exhibition of eggs.
-
- It’s a Sporting Life
…
-
We have also been busy on the sporting front, so
here is our special correspondent’s round up of the season:
-
- “Sport
has continued this term to raise its profile here at KIS. A momentous
occasion occurred in February when the seniors played their first ever
basketball fixture with CCC, going down after a close encounter 50-47.
-
- In
the world of football, KIS played a best of three series against local
footballing legends DHI. The experience of the water engineers told,
with the DHI emerging 2-1 victors. Several of their players mentioned
afterwards how impressed they were with the KIS students.

 - We
also had two football tournaments within the school. Congratulations go to
“I’m Lovin’ it, dum dum dum dum daaaa” in the secondary and
the “Mighty Red Devils” in the primary tournament.
-
- Sulug
emerged victorious in the inter-house volleyball and we wait with baited
breath for the inter-house hockey on Friday 2nd April.
-
- An
excellent swimming gala went down to the last race , with Sulug emerging
again victorious.
-
- Once
again the sportsmanship and application of the KIS pupils constantly
impresses this correspondent.
-
- Any
parents who would like to take part in a parents vs pupils football match
should contact Mr Leak.
-
- Thank You
- Ms
Dennis would like to thank Mrs Ling Ling Park for her assistance with the
Cooking Club. It’s great having parent’s help with after school clubs.

 Roller Trainers … roller
shoes, trainers with wheels on … whatever they are called, you will know
what I am talking about – because you, like me, will have been nearly
flattened by them in KK’s shopping malls. However much fun they might
be, I’m afraid they have no place in school. From the beginning of next
term children will not be allowed to wear them in school and we shall all
live a little more safely.
-
-
 On
that note, I would like to wish you all a safe, enjoyable and relaxing
holiday.
-
- Happy Easter!

- Best
wishes,
