Inauguration of GIS Mini Greens Garden
Gardening is essentially practical work for students to acquire a fund of interesting and relevant knowledge. In the purpose of teaching the importance of microgreens and vertical gardening, GIS started the project with the students of Grade 5. This project funded by the Agro National Corporation, is designed to give students practical experience of growing, harvesting, consuming and commercializing microgreens.
After growing, harvesting and consuming microgreens for more than 9 weeks, today, we launched the GIS Mini Greens Garden and the GIS Brand. At today's function, the students of Gr.5A presented their journey of growing and harvesting of 10 types of mini greens. Invitees from Ministry of Education - Republic of Maldives, Agro National Corporation Limited, PTA ExCo Members and Parents of Grade 5 witnessed the miracles of a seed as the students explained why microgreens are important in our balanced diet.
Microgreens is introduced as a part of Home Economics with concepts of vertical gardening for students of grades 5 & 6.

Biology and Marine Science students of grade 10 went on a field trip to K. Huraa on 16th December. Students explored the mangroves, measured light penetration in deep water, measured water temperature and density, pH of soil, sampling method for species richness, and Clinometer.
Students gained much needed exposure and helped consolidate theory into practice. We thank Huraa School for their assistance and Huraa campsite for accommodating us.
A special thank you to the parents who assisted the students and teachers during the trip, and we hope to collaborate in similar trips in future.

Today parents of Grades 6&7 students were invited to witness the Great Work display of Project based learning. Students showcased their commendable work through posters, models and presentations. The PBL inquiry question for this year is " How does Eco Tourism affect the environment in the Maldives?" Great job students.

Our Annual Camp, titled as 'Nature Pack Holiday' for the Little-maids and 'Camp Hail' for the Cubs and Scouts, was held on the 30th of Nov. and 1st of Dec. 2023 with informative sessions like Road Safety and First aid. In addition to this, the campers actively participated in activities like the scavenger hunt. Also, a wonderful campfire was built that lit the school compound. Yells and skits were performed by Leaders & students during the Campfire. This year's Little-Maid and Scout camp proved to be a resounding success which created an unforgettable experience for the Scouts and Little Maids.
