At CIS, we endeavor to make our school a home away from home for our children. We actively encourage all students – from the little KG children to our Grade 12 students – to interact with each other through various school programs.
Helping others is contagious and at CIS, we teach our students how to be positive members of the community. One of the ways that we encourage this is through our Bucket Filler program. The concept behind the program is that everyone has an invisible bucket and when our buckets are full, we feel good! By doing and saying kind things to others, we fill their buckets, and in return ours are filled, too.
HOUSE LEAGUE
Each child is assigned a house and this house will stay with them throughout their time at CIS. The house is an integrated mix of all students from KG1 through to Grade 12, with all students working together in friendly competition with the other houses. Students can earn points for their house by doing good deeds, being helpful, following directions, or being a good friend.
Our houses are: Scorpions (Green), Caribou (Red), Wildcats (Blue) and Falcons (Yellow). Students can earn points for their house for good behavior such as good attendance or following directions. House points are updated weekly.
