My father wanted me to join this school to help me get better English and bring a positive change in my behaviour at home. I love school assemblies because we can share our learning with the whole school. I love to learn music, art and Norwegian at school! Muska, PYP 2
The thing I like best about school is the opportunity for conceptual based learning. I get to learn the details of what I am learning and thus learn my subjects deeply. I also like the inquiry process at school. I get detailed answers to all my questions which helps me to have better understanding of what I am learning. I also like the various activities at school. Simantika, PYP 4
The thing I like best about school is the way the teachers teach. Of course playing with friends is always fun and I like to do that. Being at NLIS, I have learned to respect others and developed my creative thinking skills. I have also learned to acknowledge other people's work through academic honesty. MYP2
Each day I come to school with a smile because I can be smart and have a better future. The school encourages us to be respectful and open minded students. It also helps us to interact with students of different cultures. Being at NLIS, I have developed my critical thinking skills. MYP2
What I like about NLIS is that we go beyond in our research while we are learning about a topic. This helps us to have an in depth understand of what we are learning. Practical learning is always useful and this what we do at NLIS. We have also learned to take actions as a result of our learning. Vidushi, MYP1
I like when students from different countries get together to share their learning and perspectives. I love NLIS because it has a very positive atmosphere around it. A good learning for me to be knowledgeable and be able to take risks for learning new things.Hansa, MYP1
What I like about school is the balance between learning and fun. It makes me a happy student. I have wonderful teachers who make us knowledgeable and caring friends. A good learner for me is one who can share his learning, take risks to try new things, communicate his ideas, interact confidently with the outside world and have lots of research opportunities.Shahjin, MYP1
