New Library
Over the holiday we have done a large amount of work to improve the facilities here at Paterson Road.
One area that has been redeveloped is the Library. Please remember that this is a community resource and parents are very welcome to use the library. The Library is open from 2:30 -3:45 for families to use. Parents should see the Librarian for a parent card which entitles you to borrow up to 8 books for a 2 week period.
Please come along and enjoy the new space.
Information Events
There will be a number of information events for parents throughout the year covering all aspects of learning at ISS. These start next week with the IB @ ISS evening and continue the week after with Elementary School Information Evening.
