Children grow and develop. As they do, the way in which they understand the world develops. It is important to cover a wide range of skills, knowledge and understanding in developmentally progressive, age-appropriate ways to enhance learning. Likewise, deep learning occurs when children can build on their existing knowledge and make connections with new and different types of learning. Our focus on themes, Biblical worldview overlay and integrated subject learning all help to facilitate a rich learning experience.

We equip our students to be aware of, and respond to, the needs of others; learning to understand, appreciate and respect people belonging to many social, cultural, religious and national groups different from their own is an important element of their learning at NIS. We are dedicated to raising a generation of global citizens, who care for the world and its people as Christ did.

Children are born in the image of God – creative and active participants in their learning about the world. A Biblical Worldview builds the foundation of how children develop a relationship with God, with themselves as image bearers, with others and with their world. At the heart of all we teach is a recognition that every student is a beloved child of God, and has a place and a purpose in this world; we at NIS have the privilege and responsibility to help them grow. We welcome children of all faiths, and students are encouraged to understand and respect each others’ uniqueness.
