EXPEDITION

Expedition

Our expeditions are an integral part of our students learning for the semester. It is where MYP students implement their Service and Action components, as well as prepare for their Assessments. As such, the expeditions are a compulsory activity for all MYP students.

Through the expeditions, we have designed and planned for your child to:
  • Explore how concepts like “Global Contexts” are applied in real-world situations;

  • Enjoy interdisciplinary educational experiences, crafted to create and strengthen your child’s ability to examine a situation not only from one subject’s point of view but from many. For example, looking at Angkor Wat from scientific, mathematical and artistic perspectives;

  • Develop IB Learner Profile attributes and ATL Skills;

  • Conduct MYP assessments in the field, contributing to their MYP end of year scores at FIS;

  • Explore and appreciate a variety of environments, traditions and cultures in different locations.
