On why leadership needs a long-term and rights-based view One cannot talk about politics without discussing the characteristics of leadership. We asked Mary Robinson* her thoughts about a new approach suggested by her and The Elders: long-view leadership. Tune in to listen to her answers to the following questions: How are planetary crises transforming current politics? What instruments do world leaders need to re-shape international politics? What are the features of rights-based leadership in politics? How can international and regional organisations contribute to re-imagining politics?  * Mary Robinson is founding member of The Elders and Honorary President of the Global Campus of Human Rights. Among her past roles, she was President of Ireland (1990-1997) and former UN Commissioner for Human Rights (1997-2002). 

Introducing the theme of the series Our co-hosts Graham Finlay and George Ulrich engage in a conversation that looks at why this is the time to re-imagine politics and why it is important to do so through the lens of human rights. Listen on as they engage with the following questions: are human rights political? Is politics based on human rights? Should it be? How can human rights shape a renewed or re-imagined politics? * George Ulrich is the Academic Director of the Global Campus of Human Rights. Among his main research interests are the history and philosophy of human rights, human rights diplomacy, human rights and development cooperation, health and human rights. Full bio here.

In conversation with Elsabe Boshoff, Samrawit Getaneh and Nastasia Thebaud-Bouillon-Njenga This is a podcast series brought to you by the HRDA Alumni Task Force on Climate Justice and Rights of Future Generations in Africa, hosted under the Africa Rights Talk – Centre for Human Rights podcast. The initial aim is to produce a limited series of six podcasts that form a coherent whole, introducing some of the main challenges related to climate change and human rights in Africa. We take this opportunity to acknowledge the financial support of the European Union through the Global Campus for Human Rights. In this podcast episode, the two speakers, Elsabe Boshoff and Samrawit Getaneh, discuss on how climate change disproportionately affects children in Africa, and the interlinkages between multiple systematic inequalities affecting girls and boys in their diversity. They also touch on the responsibilities of African states as duty bearers with regard to ensuring the whole range of children's human rights in the context of a changing climate. Samrawit elaborates on the negative impacts of climate change due to their physical and cognitive levels of development. She highlights how children bear the brunt of the impact of anthropogenic GHC emissions. Samrawit further stresses that girls are particularly impacted by the effects of climate change, given the gender norms that affect their roles, such as helping with household chores. Elsabe reflects on the urgency to tackle climate-related challenges in Africa based on the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) that has projected that around 125 million children could be subjected to the consequences of climate change by 2030, through displacement, water scarcity and malnutrition, which all impact on the health of the child. In addition, Elsabe points out the impacts of heatwaves on pregnant women and their fetuses, which include delayed brain development in unborn children, resulting in educational attainment and work outcomes later in life. Finally, both speakers zoom in on some recommendations such as children empowerment and more engagement from state members. Children can be empowered to share their views on climate-related issues that directly affect them. These are through child parliaments where children get the opportunity to debate on important issues on the national agenda. It is also important that African state parties engage more with the Working Group on Children's Rights and Climate Change under the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child (African Committee).

The importance of positive human rights narratives In conversation with George Ulrich In the first GC Podcast Series, we widely explained why talking with human rights sceptics is not only relevant but also conducive to increased motivation for further action. Still, an important question remained: how to improve a meaningful human rights discourse? George Ulrich* shares his thoughts and answers additional questions: how do we prompt positive and engaged reactions to human rights issues? Is there a way to bring a positive vision of human rights to people's everyday lives? * Prof. George Ulrich is the Academic Director of the Global Campus of Human Rights. Among his main research interests are the history and philosophy of human rights, human rights diplomacy, human rights and development cooperation, health and human rights. A key focus of his teaching is to equip students to effectively engage with expressions of human rights scepticism. He was the host of the first GC Podcast Series. Full bio here.

My guest today, Iryna conducted an interview with a UK volunteer working for a mission to evacuate civilians from Ukraine's front lines. Forging a human corridor under constant bombardment is only half the battle — it also takes enormous effort to convince civilians to leave. British photographer turned volunteer Ignatius Ivlev-Yorke and his team have evacuated thousands of Ukrainians to safer locations in Ukraine and abroad and explained their challenging operations to Iryna recently. #ukraine #ukrainewar #russia #zelensky #putin #propaganda #war #disinformation #hybridwarfare #foreignpolicy #communism #sovietunion #postsoviet ---------- SPEAKER: Iryna Matviyishyn is a Ukrainian journalist and producer.

This month, we have *two* very special guests—Lois Shaw and Mary Lou Keller—with whom we discuss the pains and gains of being a ‘mature student' and returning to higher education later in life. After 30 years as a family welfare attorney in Colorado, Mary Lou chose to pursue a Master's in Human Rights and Democratization at the Global Campus of Human Rights in Venice, Italy. Lois trained as a journalist before moving to Kenya with her family and, at the age of 70, finished her PhD in Transformational Leadership at Africa International University in Nairobi. In this episode, we chat about lifelong academic journeys; why our guests chose to pivot and the challenges of going back to school; navigating loss and grief, as well as feelings of isolation and geographical removal from one's support system when studying abroad; and the challenges of maintaining work-life balance as a mature student with an established career and home life.If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review!You can also subscribe to BeDo's quarterly newsletter for exclusive updates about upcoming episodes and events.Is there a topic you'd like to see covered?

Zur Person: Prof. Dr. Manfred Nowak Professor für Menschenrechte in Wien Generalsekretär des Global Campus of Human Rights in Venedig "Politik sollte gestalten! "Die Säulen der Demokratie werden ausgehöhlt, d.h. wir gehen in Richtung Diktatur. "Menschenrechte sind immer auf einen Kompromiss ausgelegt. D.h., die Kunst der Menschenrechte besteht darin, IMMER einen Ausgleich zu finden." Gedanken aus dem Podcast: - Verhältnis von und Wechselspiel zwischen Wirtschaft & Politik - Die Rolle des Neoliberalismus - Auswüchse transnationaler Konzerne - Hauptzweck des Staates - Menschenrechte zu garantieren! (funktionierendes, Gesundheitssystem, Bildungssystem, Sozialsystem usw.) - Freiheitliche & demokratische Grundordnung - Soziale Sicherheit (um auch liberale Freiheit genießen zu können) - Demokratie weltweit - Wirtschaftliche Ungleichheit und die Aushöhlung des demokratischen & sozialen Grundkonsenses - Übernahme eines ökonomischen Modells in die Politik - Polarisierung in europäischen Staaten (z.B. Ungarn, Italien, Polen und Brexit) - Demokratischer Zusammenhalt - Gespräch / Dialog - d.h. den politischen Gegner nicht als Feind, sondern als Kooperationspartner sehen. (Mehr Ehrlichkeit & mehr Vertrauen) - Der Politik einen anderen Stellenwert einräumen -> d.h. das ganze Bild der Politiker*innen neu aufstellen. - Soziale Medien und ihr Wirken in & für die Politik und das politische Miteinander - Über den nationalen Tellerrand herausschauen => auch unpopuläre Entscheidungen treffen (können & wollen) => es bedarf eines neuen Politiker*innen-Typus

Can advertising's immense power to change behavior be used for good? In this brand new podcast, produced by Intelligence Squared, Myra Nussbaum, President and Chief Creative Officer at Havas Chicago and Dan Lucey, Chief Creative Officer at Havas New York, talk to the people who are harnessing the power of advertising to help people and the planet. This week, Dan and Myra were joined by the Co-Founder of Check My Ads, Claire Atkin. Check My Ads Institute is a non-profit advertising watchdog organization that aims to stop disinformation by cutting off its lifeline: advertising revenue. Claire shares how Check My Ads was initially an agency working with advertisers but, after realizing that advertisers were not the problem, it turned its attention to the $400bn ad exchange industry that she believes is destabilizing the information ecosystem. As adtech's "first watchdog", Claire describes how they expose the tactics that adtech companies use to push advertiser dollars towards hate and disinformation outlets, holding them accountable to their clients and to the public. She also talks about Check My Ads' latest campaign, which aims to defund “the biggest voices in election fraud disinformation” and targeted Fox News, for its role in the January 6th insurrection. Claire co-founded Check My Ads in 2021 along with Nandini Jammi. Prior to this, she had spent years building a career in tech marketing, predominantly for software-as-a-service companies. In 2017, increasingly concerned about the ways that the marketing industry was undermining democracy, she went to study International Election Observation at the Global Campus for Human Rights in Venice, and from there became increasingly determined to do something to take on the disinformation economy.

University of Maryland Global Campus offers award-winning academic programs and services for active-duty military service members, veterans, and military spouses and families. Dr. Harriet Smith, a USAF veteran, discusses UMGC and its Master's program just for service members and veterans. She discusses with host Jim Fausone the interesting coursework and how the soft skills learned in the military are recognized.

Today we are talking with University of Maryland Global Campus President Gregory Fowler. With deep experience working with various online learning institutions throughout the years, President Fowler has a lot of personal experience with online learning, while many others are just learning the ins and outs of it. With many students in hybrid environments, UMGC has had to develop and implement various protocols. President Fowler believes we need to go back to the fundamental basics of who you are and what you do well. He says reacting too quickly will not serve you. He reminds us that activity and progress are not the same thing. Too many people get wrapped up in feeling busy, but they lack a sense of direction and the steps needed to get them where they need to go. A clearly defined path can make all the difference when it comes to achieving your objectives. President Fowler says to make sure all your hard work isn't in vain. When asked what advice he has been given that's served him well, President Fowler gives credit to his former boss as SNHU. President Fowler was told that if you are not measuring, then you're just practicing. He stresses the importance of putting KPI's in place that will truly hold them accountable for what they're trying to accomplish. You have to understand the metric that will tell you if you're meeting your goal. It's so important to understand the various ways that all the pieces of higher ed come together. When President Fowler was asked for his best advice, he says he often passes along some insight he got from his mother. He reminds people that God gave you two ears, two eyes, and one mouth for a reason. He says leaders need the ability to truly listen and to speak only when they need to. President Fowler says it's imperative to be comfortable with both your superpower and your kryptonite. You can't be good at everything, and it's critical to build a team that supports you in your areas of weakness. Beyond that, you have to empower that team and let them do what they're good at. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/innovationalliance/message

If you feel yourself stressing out you will: [ fill in the blank with how you find space]).Read ALL comments Do the easy fixes, then mentally group the commentsAsk for help from your Chair in terms of managing the feedbackAsk for a Zoom/Skype/phone call – it can change everythingTrust the processLearning how to receive feedback is a PRACTICE – you are GROWINGCommittee members: Communicate with your students about the receiving of feedback.“It always seems impossible until it is done” – Nelson Mandela “When we know better, we do better” – Maya Angelou“Between stimulus and response there is a space.

We listen today to Natalie Born, she's a strategic corporate innovation expert consultant, she describes her career journey and points of views around the art of corporate innovation to drive organizational growth. She has been focused on creating corporate innovative strategies to drive growth and disrupt industries for almost two decades.  Natalie implements the innovation design process to make a positive impact on leadership's way of thinking about innovation to drive revenue and market share results.Natalie has an incredible career background working in senior executive management roles at leading companies within diverse industries, such as CareerBuilder, First Data, ADP, IHG and now currently as VP of Innovation at Territory.coWe have a very powerful conversation around what organizations can do to embrace and execute innovation, how to approach innovation with a team and futurist mentality, and how to be disruptive in your industry to win. Growing up in the Peach StateGrowing up in a small town of Duluth, Georgia for Natalie, she always felt that she was the only one, she didn't belong, in the '80s there wasn't too much diversity in suburban Georgia. However she took that feeling of being different through her collegiate experience from Oglethorpe University to Maryland's Global Campus for her MBA and during an overseas business education program in India during her MBA, all these experiences began to shape herself to the corporate professional executive and consultant she has become“Noticing that I was different at a young age was difficult, but as I grew older I embraced being different and how  special it is to bring your differences to the table" – Natalie Born. Challenges to break through doors, being the only women and of color at the table in companies and tech Natalie describes and shares how her childhood, collegiate experience, and early corporate experiences prepared her to have a diversity and design thinking approach  throughout her career. “Alot of people talk about luck, I personally don't believe in luck, but rather in alot of hard work, working twice as hard to get ahead” – Natalie Born.What a reverse merger at CareerBuilder taught her about having a superior work ethicNatalie describes how a week after the company she was working within HeadHunter was acquired by CareerBuilder and being fired and hired again as part of the leadership team by CareerBuilder in a span of a week.  She has always had a drive to over-deliver and do much more than the bare minimum, always striving 150%, to wanting to do more to get to the next level. Her Reason Why and Origin of Her Entrepreneurship Journey“My career reached a level after more than 15 years in corporate, where it wasn't about me and I really wanted to help others around ideation, innovation and knowing how to help people freed from their mind ” – Natalie Born. Becoming intentional  about providing diversity and inclusion towards a more equitable and innovative corporate culture."Cheryl Sandberg talks about until you have a diverse set of candidates how can you pull the trigger on hiring that person. You need to bring the elephant into the room and painting it red and having those discussions around diversity and the same opportunities for career advancement." Natalie Born. The Art of Corporate Innovation with Design Thinking and Planning for Future  Growth“Innovation is no longer individual based, it's now very team-based, so it's all about getting the best and brightest team together and then you draw, putting all the ideas on the table, bad and good ones, to let the good  ideas take shape and win.” – Natalie Born.  Most companies will be disrupted by not being disruptive proactively“Too often companies are so focused on how much money we are making today that we are not creating the future. My fear is that large organizations are not disrupting themselves, so they end up being disrupted” – Natalie Born.  Pivoting and forecasting into the future is more imperative than ever“If your a leader you have to be a futurist. Corporations struggle with leadership side or innovation and the ability to create the future."– Natalie Born. Back to the Future with Natalie Born“Don't sweat the small stuff, overempahasis the things that have long-term impact and under-emphasize the things that have short-term impact” – Natalie Born.  Book recommendations to help you get 1% better1.

When, in 1883, Congress charged the US Army with managing Yellowstone National Park, soldiers encountered a new sort of hostility: work they were untrained for, in a daunting physical and social environment where they weren’t particularly welcome. When they departed in 1918, America  had a new sort of serviceman: the National Park Service Ranger. From the creation of Yellowstone National Park to the conclusion of the army’s superintendence, Watching over Yellowstone tells the boots-on-the-ground story of the US troops charged with imposing order on man and nature in America’s first national park. Yellowstone National Park had been created only fourteen years before Captain Moses Harris arrived at Mammoth Hot Springs with his company, Troop M of the First United States Cavalry, in August of 1886. And in those years, the underfunded, poorly supervised park had been visited freely by over-eager tourists, vandals, and poachers. In Watching over Yellowstone: The US Army's Experience in America's First National Park, 1886–1918 (University Press of Kansas, 2020), Thomas C. Rust describes the task confronting Congress, military superintendents, and the common soldiers as the ever-increasing number of tourists, commercial interests, and politics stained the unruly park. At a time when the army was already undergoing a great transformation, the common soldiers were now struggling with unusual duties in unfamiliar terrain, often in unaccustomed proximity to the social elite who dominated the tourist class—fertile if uncertain ground for both the failures and the successes that eventually shaped the National Park Service’s ranger corps. What this meant for the average soldier emerges from the materials Rust consults: orders, circulars, inspection reports, court-martial cases, civilian accounts, and evidence from excavated soldier stations in the park. A nuanced social history from a rare ground-level perspective, his book captures an extraordinary moment in the story of America’s military and its national parks. Rob Denning is Associate Dean for Liberal Arts at Southern New Hampshire University’s Global Campus. He received his Ph.D from The Ohio State University, where he researched environmental policymaking in California during Ronald Reagan’s terms as governor.

In 1831, Nat Turner led a band of Southampton County slaves in a rebellion that killed fifty-five whites, mostly women and children. After more than two months in hiding, Turner was captured, and quickly convicted and executed. Christopher Tomlins' new book In the Matter of Nat Turner: A Speculative History (Princeton University Press, 2020) penetrates the historical caricature of Turner as befuddled mystic and self-styled Baptist preacher to recover the haunting persona of this legendary American slave rebel, telling of his self-discovery and the dawning of his Christian faith, of an impossible task given to him by God, and of redemptive violence and profane retribution. Much about Turner remains unknown. His extraordinary account of his life and rebellion, given in chains as he awaited trial in jail, was written down by an opportunistic white attorney and sold as a pamphlet to cash in on Turner’s notoriety. But the enigmatic rebel leader had an immediate and broad impact on the American South, and his rebellion remains one of the most momentous episodes in American history. Tomlins provides a luminous account of Turner's intellectual development, religious cosmology, and motivations, and offers an original and incisive analysis of the Turner Rebellion itself and its impact on Virginia politics. Tomlins also undertakes a deeply critical examination of William Styron’s 1967 novel, The Confessions of Nat Turner, which restored Turner to the American consciousness in the era of civil rights, black power, and urban riots. A speculative history that recovers Turner from the few shards of evidence we have about his life, In the Matter of Nat Turner is also a unique speculation about the meaning and uses of history itself. Rob Denning is Associate Dean for Liberal Arts at Southern New Hampshire University’s Global Campus.

In 1831, Nat Turner led a band of Southampton County slaves in a rebellion that killed fifty-five whites, mostly women and children. After more than two months in hiding, Turner was captured, and quickly convicted and executed. Christopher Tomlins' new book In the Matter of Nat Turner: A Speculative History (Princeton University Press, 2020) penetrates the historical caricature of Turner as befuddled mystic and self-styled Baptist preacher to recover the haunting persona of this legendary American slave rebel, telling of his self-discovery and the dawning of his Christian faith, of an impossible task given to him by God, and of redemptive violence and profane retribution. Much about Turner remains unknown. His extraordinary account of his life and rebellion, given in chains as he awaited trial in jail, was written down by an opportunistic white attorney and sold as a pamphlet to cash in on Turner’s notoriety. But the enigmatic rebel leader had an immediate and broad impact on the American South, and his rebellion remains one of the most momentous episodes in American history. Tomlins provides a luminous account of Turner's intellectual development, religious cosmology, and motivations, and offers an original and incisive analysis of the Turner Rebellion itself and its impact on Virginia politics. Tomlins also undertakes a deeply critical examination of William Styron’s 1967 novel, The Confessions of Nat Turner, which restored Turner to the American consciousness in the era of civil rights, black power, and urban riots. A speculative history that recovers Turner from the few shards of evidence we have about his life, In the Matter of Nat Turner is also a unique speculation about the meaning and uses of history itself.

In conversation with Prof Manfred Nowak For children, deprivation of liberty means depriving them of their childhood. Placing children in institutions and other facilities where they are, or may be, deprived of liberty is difficult to reconcile with the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2019. The CRC clearly states that the deprivation of liberty of children shall be used only as a measure of last resort and for the shortest appropriate period of time. To address this situation, in December 2014 the United Nations General Assembly invited the United Nations Secretary-General to commission an in-depth Global Study on Children Deprived of Liberty. In October 2016, Professor Manfred Nowak was appointed as Independent Expert to lead the Global Study. The Independent Expert, together with the South African Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), the Centre for Human Rights, University of Pretoria and the Global Campus of Human Rights, hosted a one-day sub-regional launch of the Global Study. Key stakeholders from members of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), African Union representatives as well as the Indian Ocean Island States were invited to discuss and strategise the implementation of the Global Study. It is during this sub-regional launch that this conversation was had with Professor Manfred Nowak. He discusses the findings of the Global Study and provides recommendations on these findings. View the UN Global Study This conversation was recorded on 9 December 2019.

Dear DCIS Parents, 
Welcome back, I hope that you had a lovely break. As I wrote in my email yesterday, we are restarting the ECAs today, something that I know our students are very happy about. We are also looking at options to reschedule postponed events, we will keep you updated. 

The Global Campus Visual Arts competition is open, the theme this year is the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. To learn more, watch this video created by the Primary Global Campus Champions. A guide on how to access the Global Campus can be found here.

 Thank you to those of you who have already shared your dance videos with us! If you are yet to, please watch the tutorial by Ms Hughes and Mr Liperis and have a go at home. We'd love to see our Dover Court community dancing, so do share any videos with your class teachers. 

I am looking forward to the DCA's Quiz Night this Friday and hope to meet many of you there. The DCA are also planning their Family Movie Night that will take place on Saturday 28th March, the current situation permitting. The form to vote for the movie to be screened is now open and can be found here. 
 Many thanks to all the parents who have completed the new Student Travel Declaration, we ask all families to complete this, one per child, by Friday 28th February. Please note that this is a government requirement. As you know we have previously asked families to fill in Travel Plans on our Google Doc. These have proved very useful as other areas are identified as virus hotspots. As such we would be grateful if families could update the Travel Plans document (click here) as their travel is planned.

 As you may have seen, we have created a Health Advisory page on our website. All school communication regarding the COVID-19 virus can be found there, along with some useful resources. All this can also be found in the Health Advisory folder on the Parent Portal.

 Finally, do watch our hand-wash tutorial together with your children. We have been so impressed with how willing all children are to wash their hands and use the hand sanitisers that are placed around school. 
 Have a great week!


We have had some lovely activities in this relatively short half term. There was some fantastic sporting success, including a bronze in the U10 Boys’ Football ACSIS finals, a gold in the U14 Boys’ Football and a gold in the U14 Girls’ Netball finals. Amazing results! We held our Year 3 and Year 4 swimming galas which were both hotly contested. Congratulations to Ubin for winning the Year 3 inter-house competition and to Jurong for winning the Year 4 competition. We had some lovely celebrations for Chinese New Year, including our second temple fair, arranged by the DCIS Mandarin department. It was lovely to see our children, all wearing festive clothes, enjoy the traditional activities run by our staff and parent volunteers. The campus looked beautiful, thank you DCA for decorating our school. The DCA also ran the Secondary disco, which was enjoyed by all who attended. As always, we are very grateful for the support of our parent community through the DCA. Our students in the exam years; Years 11 and 13 have successfully completed their mocks and are studying hard for their final exams later this year. A highlight of the IB journey, at least from a teacher’s perspective, is the presentation of the Extended Essays. Our Year 13 cohort shared their work with their peers, teachers and parents during a lovely CoffEE event. There was an amazing spread of topics, from The Fall of Singapore, to Exploring the Mind of Christopher Boone and Rap Music and its Evolution Through Time. The first House Day of this term was a great success. The Primary students had a fun filled day of dancing, whilst the Secondary students had a more reflective day, focusing on the theme Enquiry. We have seen numerous charity initiatives this half term, starting with the big fund raiser for those affected by the Australian bushfires and Indonesian flooding in the first week of term. This was followed by the Year 2 Charity Shops, where the children in Year 2 were selling baked goods and used toys and books to support the Red Cross’ work in Australia and Indonesia. 8MM and 11ML organised a Valentine Day’s Bake Sale, also raising money for the Red Cross and their work. I am very grateful to the Dover Court community for your generosity and willingness to help those in need. The Secondary lunchtime performances ‘On the Spot’ have been a great success this year, we have some incredibly talented students in our school. This has also been seen in the newly introduced Primary version – ‘At the Splat’, where Kai and Haley have set the bar high, with two wonderful performances. The Secondary students travelling to Tanzania to do service work, as part of the Global Campus, have been raising money for their trip through various initiatives. Inspired by the ‘On the Spot’ performances the students ran a charity vote, where teachers with the most votes were invited to participate in a karaoke style show in the Red Dot. Mr Bull, Mrs Hyland, Mr Mainstone, Mr Jury and Mr Lindsay did a much appreciated performance, singing ‘Into the Unknown’ from Frozen and the Backstreet Boys classic, ‘I Want It That Way’. Seldom have we seen such a supportive and enthusiastic audience! This past week we welcomed Abie Longstaff to the school to talk about her life as an author. Abie ran some fantastic workshops with the children in our Primary school, inspiring them all to become writers. Do listen to the interview with her in our podcast! As we had to rearrange a few things due to the current situation, I was honoured to be chosen to stand in as the Mystery Reader to read to one of our Reception classes. It was wonderful to see the excitement as the children discovered that Mr Shorts was joining them.

Dear DCIS Parents, I want to start my final newsletter of the Academic year by saying a heartfelt thank you to all of our excellent staff who have worked tirelessly over the year to deliver an outstanding learning experience for our students and such an incredible co-curricular offer. I would also like to thank all of the parents and students for making me feel so welcome as Head of Secondary at DCIS and as my first year draws to a close; I can say that I am very proud to be a member of such a fantastic school. As I have spoken about in previous communications, these are very exciting times for the Secondary School and for DCIS as a whole. I am delighted to be taking the school into the next chapter in its history, and I am determined to build on the current strengths and take the school forward on a journey to outstanding in all areas. The Secondary building is really starting to take shape both externally and internally, and we are very much looking forward to finally getting into our new building this August. Despite it being the final half term of the year, it is always a busy one, and this half term was no exception. Our Years 11 and 13 students have sat over 100 examination sessions over the last couple of months, and we are very confident and positive about their results this summer. We have recently held our inaugural Year 13 Graduation Ceremony at Eden Hall, the residence of the British High Commissioner. It was fantastic to be able to recognise the hard work and dedication of these students and formally bid them farewell on the next stages of their educational career. It is wonderful also to know that we have potential university destinations such as Stanford, Michigan, Glasgow, London, Canada and Singapore, to name just a few. We have also held our first Art and DT exhibition, which was attended by over 150 people with 95 pieces of student work displayed. I was very impressed by the quality of the work displayed. A special mention must go to the cast and crew of Arabian Nights for such a fantastic production. The nearly 90 students who took part have been rehearsing since January, before, during, and after school, giving up weekends and evenings and it indeed showed in their performance. I would also like to thank the staff for the Year 12 ESS Trip to Tioman, the Global Campus trip to Switzerland and the Year 10 and 12 Mandarin trip to China Town. The students all had fantastic experiences and are already talking about next year’s trips and expeditions. This term, we have been holding a ‘DCIS Golden Ticket’ competition, designed to reward and recognise our students who are always doing the right thing, helping others and being kind and compassionate peers. With over 1000 tickets given out, it has been a great success and highlights what we already knew, how incredible our DCIS student body is. Over the term, there have been two Golden Ticket draws in assemblies. This week 22 deserving students have experienced ‘gold class’ cinema in a private showing of MIB: International. Well done to everyone who received a Golden Ticket. We will be continuing a similar competition next year. I would like to congratulate all students on a great year of learning at DCIS. Our Year 7s have settled into life in the Secondary School exceptionally well, which is a credit to themselves and the Transition Team who ensured it was a smooth process for them all. Our Year 12s have flourished in their first year of the IBDP and are looking forward to their final year at DCIS. It is, of course, a time when we do have to say farewell to the families and staff who are leaving Singapore at the end of this year. I hope you have enjoyed your time at DCIS and remember, you will always be Doverians. Thank you for your support of your children and our staff this year, I look forward to welcoming you back with the new members of our Secondary team in August. Have a wonderful and restful holiday.

Dear DCIS Parents, It is hard to believe that we have reached the last week of this academic year, with only a few days left of term! I would like to start with congratulating Ms Hooper and her cast for an absolutely fantastic production. I have seen quite a few school productions over the years and I must say that the DCIS version of Arabian Nights definitely was one of the best. A big thank you to the parents who helped with the costumes. We welcomed our Global Campus expedition team back from Switzerland last Wednesday. They all had an amazing experience and you could tell that the mountain air did them the world of good. Last week’s Primary Parent Teacher Conferences were very successful, thank you to all parents for your continued support. The weather was kinder to Year 9 last week and the students thoroughly enjoyed their inter-house water polo competition. Congratulations to Jurong, Year 9 winners. We have just received the fantastic news from Nord Anglia Education that Reyna in Year 7 has received a highly commended award for the Global Campus Visual Arts Competition. Her artwork was in the top 10 for her age category of all the entrants. Her work will be displayed at the UN this summer when the NAE students are at the UNICEF summit. Congratulations to Reyna! The DCA have started collecting used, in good condition, uniforms. Boxes can be found in the foyer, outside the main library. The second hand uniform sale will take place on Thursday, 3:00-4:30pm, in Cooper Hall. Ten Feet Tall will be collecting used shoes on Wednesday and Thursday, their collection box can also be found in the foyer. The charity Kimbia Na Afrika (Run with Africa) will also collect GOOD USED running shoes and donate them to under privileged schools in Kenya. The running shoes need to be for men’s and women’s adult sizes, as they will be donated to secondary school children. We look forward to seeing all returning students in August. Please note that Primary, Years 11, 12 and 13 start on Monday 19th August, Years 9 and 10 on Tuesday 20th August and Years 7 and 8 on Wednesday 21st August. Have a great last week of term.
