Examinations have already started, with Language Orals and IGCSE ICT happening this week, but the main exam period is in May and June. During these weeks the students will be coming to school to sit their exams, and also for pre-arranged study sessions with their teachers. The policy and protocols were clearly explained to the students, and a letter, with a copy of my assembly presentation was sent out to parents on Wednesday, so that they could also understand what would be happening during this very important time in their child\u2019s educational journey.<\/p>\n<p>In the second half of the gathering, we paid tribute to our Year 13s as they come close to the end of their time as KIS students; this will be officially recognised at their Graduation on June 16<sup>th<\/sup>. To great merriment we all viewed a few past school photos of them (not looking very different now to when they were in Years 6, 7, 8, 9\u2026&#8230;). Courtney Thornton holds the crown for being the longest serving Year 13 student. She received a round of applause in recognition of her 13 years\u2019 attendance! To round off the event, there was a meaningful speech from Dr Gross as he gave advice based on his own experiences as a GCE and A Level student, followed by cake for all.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20906&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20907&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]They have also applied to universities around the world, including Japan and South Africa.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20908&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What\u2019s Been Happening in Year 13 Geography?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Last week, on Friday 14<sup>th,<\/sup> Professor Benoit Goossens, Director of the DGFC spent some time in school answering the year 13 Geography students\u2019 questions about the extent of and types of degradation in Sabah, especially in the lower Kinabatangan river basin.<\/p>\n<p>He shared updates on the Regrow Borneo project which DGFC set up in 2019 in collaboration with Cardiff University and the KOPEL community cooperative.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dr-Goosens-visit.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1380\" height=\"1035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dr-Goosens-visit.jpg 1380w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dr-Goosens-visit-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dr-Goosens-visit-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dr-Goosens-visit-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kis.edu.my\/kisnewsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dr-Goosens-visit-255x191.jpg 255w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1380px) 100vw, 1380px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This was a highly informative and useful session to help our Geography A level class of students, Richie.
