What is Making a Difference?
We aim to develop an awareness and compassionate mindset in our students and school
community.
We aim to change ourselves, other people’s lives, and the environment for the better.
This begins with the school community, and widens to include the local and global
community.
’SIS goes MaD’ 2015
Why Make a Difference at SIS?
We believe it is an important aspect of learning that should permeate
all areas of the school community.
It is our responsibility as members of society to raise social awareness and to demonstrate this
in all aspects of our work.
