Good luck class of 2010!

The graduation of our grade 12 students was an emotional and meaningful event. The speeches from the Head of School, the Principal and the Keynote Speech by Mr. Neil MacDonald were gripping, funny, relevant and proud, but it was the speeches by two of the students that will be remembered most by all present.

Both Liew and Nut reminisced about their years at KIS, about the hard work, how far they have come, and most of all, about the friendships they made. How true this was became apparent when all students gathered round Liew in a group huddle after her emotional speech.

The students have worked incredibly hard to pass their IB Diploma, and to gain acceptance at their university of choice.

They are ready for their new beginnings and we wish them all the best of luck.
