For our Term 1 SAP, we imagined and built our own ideal nations to deepen our understanding of governance. We hoped these countries could help address global challenges and lead to a brighter future. Alongside designing national flags, we also explored different creative tools — from AI to games — to bring our ideas to life in new ways. This SAP was especially meaningful because it was our very first one at JIS. Sharing our work in a new environment added excitement and made

Over the past few weeks, we have been preparing and practicing for the Lantana Festival. The theme of our performance focuses on the history of Japan, which we studied in Social Studies. We spent time writing scripts and creating props to make our play as realistic and enjoyable as possible. Please look forward to our performance on the day!

This week, we visited the Legislative Council to learn more about governance in Hong Kong. We learned about the work they do and the processes involved in making Hong Kong a better place. We also participated in a role-play activity to experience how Legislative Council members conduct discussions in a meeting. After gaining a deeper understanding of the government in Hong Kong, we will explore how citizens can contribute and become part of the system.
