02Future-Ready Fun: ISIP Young Learners Shine in Tech Education Week
The I-Shou International Preschool (ISIP) recently wrapped up an incredibly successful Tech Education Week!
It was wonderful to see our youngest students dive into sophisticated technological tools, using them to enrich their learning and truly bring their academic work to life. This period of exciting, hands-on learning was carefully aligned with our IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) Units of Inquiry, helping us integrate students' existing interests with core academic goals.
It's truly setting the stage for their future success and personal growth!
03Grade 8 Cultural Learning Adventure in Pingtung
Our Grade 8 students visited the Pingtung Indigenous Cultural Park for a day filled with learning, connection, and celebration of Taiwan’s rich aboriginal heritage.
From the warm welcome performance that set an exciting tone for the day, to the knowledgeable and engaging tour guide who helped students connect deeply with the stories, traditions, and artistry of Taiwan’s Indigenous cultures, every moment was both educational and inspiring.
A highlight of the trip was the traditional performance of song, music, and dance. This was a vibrant and memorable showcase of authentic Indigenous talent and creativity.
It was a wonderful opportunity for students to experience living culture firsthand and develop a greater appreciation for the diversity that shapes this shared history.
04Research & Inquiry Mid-semester Exhibition
Our Secondary Bilingual Department Grade 7–10 students proudly presented their ongoing research in four major themes—microplastics, medical science and viruses, friction, and the greenhouse effect.
With confidence and enthusiasm, they shared their findings and demonstrated remarkable inquiry skills.
As the semester continues, students will further refine their projects and explore new perspectives.
We look forward to witnessing their creativity and growth in the end-of-semester exhibition!
05What an Incredible Week! 2025 Tech Education Week Concludes
