Students develop their ability to think creatively and express themselves through a variety of art forms, mediums and techniques.

Drama

Sport

Sport is an essential component of UIS life. It not only promotes good health, but it also teaches students in terms of individual and team commitment and achievement. We encourage all our students, whatever the age, to achieve their full potential, whilst ensuring a commitment to fair play and encouraging a philosophy of team spirit.

Student Leadership

Students are exposed to a variety of leadership opportunities that reflect the unique blend of interests within the community. The leadership roles link back to various phases of the core IB Programme and encourage students to actively discover ways in which they can develop themselves and connect to other cultures, through service and actions.
