We are delighted to let you know that during lunch on Tuesday, August 30th we will be having our first university visitors of the year. Five universities from three different regions (the USA, Canada, and Europe) will have tables set up near the cafeteria.
This is a great opportunity for you to graciously welcome our visitors and to ask questions to them and learn more not only about their institutions but also about higher education opportunities in general their regions.
Be courageous and curious and jump in by politely asking our visitors your wonderful thought-out questions!

Archery
Hello, my name is Jade and I’m in grade 12. As part of the IB diploma we need to have a CAS project. Mine is about teaching archery. I practiced it from grade 7 to grade 10 in France. When I came to India I found a club but it didn’t fit with what I liked so I tried to shoot in AISC but doing it alone is not really fun… But here is a new opportunity for me to share my passion ! My goal is for you to finish this semester or year knowing how to shoot well. So, if you are interested in learning a new sport it will happen on Saturday morning from 8.00 am to 10.00 am. We will start on Saturday, the 20th. Show your interest by completing this form. Thank you !”
