What OWIS parents and students say
Janelle R., IBDP Batch of 2021
My teachers were incredibly supportive of me and my classmates when doing IB and some really went out of their way to help us as much as they could, which I appreciated so much.
Adeliya F., IBDP Batch of 2023
At OWIS, I've learnt a lot about communication, and how it's important to be proactive, not reactive. I've also learnt that kindness and empathy are key in leadership and collaborative work.
Christina O.
I like that technology plays enough of a part within my children's studies but does not dominate basic skills towards literacy with reading, writing and presentation. There is very much a balance.

Welcome back to school everyone! Our G5s got right back into the thick of it with their latest Unit of Inquiry (UOI) – diving deep into their research on the causes, effects, and consequences of either the Vietnam War or the Gulf War.
Along the way, they’re sharpening their Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills—becoming stronger researchers, critical thinkers, communicators, and writers. It’s been a powerful journey of inquiry as they connect historical events to broader global understandings and becoming global citizens.

In one of our G9`s science lessons, our students took the day`s learning to heart, literally. 🫀Mrs. Neeti Pal, Science Teacher & GCSE Coordinator led them on an unforgettable exploration of anatomy.
With curiosity (and a little courage!), students dissected and examined the heart’s chambers, valves, and blood vessels — making real-world connections to their learning about the circulatory system.
Whoever said science is boring, eat your heart out!
