Leading IFS into an Exciting New Chapter 🎓✨
As we settle into this exciting term, Mathieu Bellamy, President of the Executive Committee, and our new Principal, Samuel Jourdan, share a special welcome video message for our entire community.
Together, they highlight our shared vision for the future: preserving French educational excellence and strengthening our international openness here in Singapore, including through our new English International Stream. 🌍📚
« Beyond academic achievement, our ambition is to help every student thrive — to develop not only as learners, but as confident, curious, and well-rounded young people. » Samuel Jourdan, Principal
« For us, preparing the future of IFS is not about changing who we are. It is about building on what already works, responding thoughtfully to change, and ensuring that IFS remains a strong, welcoming and forward-looking school. »
— Mathieu Bellamy, President of the Executive Committee

A Story of Culture, Passion & Belonging: Meet the Yoshii Family! 🇫🇷🇯🇵✨🌍
From Japan to Singapore and onto the courts of the All Japan Jr Squash Championships, 10-year-old Ceon Yoshii and her family share a truly special connection with the International French School (IFS).
Although non-French speakers when they arrived, the Yoshii family chose IFS for its unique cultural bridge, shared values between France and Japan, and the dedicated FLSCO support program that turns language learning into an exciting adventure. 📚❤️
« French and Japanese cultures share certain values — an appreciation for craftsmanship, art, detail, and taking pride in doing things properly. » — Takuya Yoshii (Father)
What impressed the Yoshii family most is how IFS actively opens its doors to non-French-speaking students, offering a genuine pathway into the French educational system. Thanks to personalized attention from teachers and tailored language integration, Ceon didn’t just learn a new language, she developed a deep sense of belonging and enthusiasm for a brand-new culture! 🌟

Back-to-School Parent-Teacher Meetings: Starting the Year Together! 📚✨
Just like students who start the school year with many things to cover, parents have to do their part too! 🏫 That’s why our parents back-to-school meetings are so important:
These gatherings are a wonderful opportunity to meet our dedicated teaching team in person, build a strong partnership with families, ask questions about the curriculum for the year, clarify details, and ensure open communication.
A big thank you to all the parents and teachers who joined! Together, we’re setting our students up for an amazing year. 🚀

Exploring, Learning, and Settling In! 🧭🌿
Starting secondary school is a big step, but our 6th-grade students are already off to a fantastic start!
As part of their Life and Earth Sciences (SVT) curriculum, our students took part in a fun orientation tour around the campus. Guided by Mr. Mercier and his fellow science teachers, they explored their new school environment, marked key locations on a campus map using cardinal points, and located their future classrooms.
Beyond learning how to navigate the campus, this hands-on activity encourages curiosity and scientific observation. Armed with multimeters to measure temperature, light, and humidity around the school, our young scientists got their first taste of field investigation! 🌡️☀️
Most importantly, this initiative also fosters well-being and seamless integration, helping our new middle schoolers feel confident, curious, and fully at home in their new school environment. ✨
Welcome to secondary school, Grade 6! 🎒👏

Chasing greatness under Singapore heat! 🏉🔥
Our IFS U18 Rugby team was back on the Campus 3000 pitch, fully focused and bringing maximum intensity to their training session.
The players are working hard to refine their tactics, sharpen their skills, and build unbeatable team cohesion. Beyond the game, our Premières and Terminales students are showing what true sportsmanship and dedication look like. 💪
Let’s send them all our support as they gear up for the upcoming challenges! 👏

From IFS to the Skies! ✈️✨
We were absolutely thrilled to welcome back one of our inspiring alumni, Alice (Class of 2012), to the IFS campus!
After graduating from IFS, Alice took a bold leap and moved straight to Australia to pursue her dream in aviation through a cadetship with Regional Express. Fast forward to today, and she is now a Boeing 737 First Officer with Qantas, based in Sydney.
During her visit, Alice shared why she chose Australia back then, driven by the career opportunities in the aviation industry. She also reflected on how her years at IFS paved the way for her success:
🌍 Cultural Adaptability: In a field where you work alongside people from all over the world, Alice says the multicultural environment at IFS gave her a huge head start (even if adjusting to the Aussie accent took a bit of time!).
💡 Advice for IFS Students: Follow your passion, step out of your comfort zone, and don’t be afraid to pursue your dreams across the globe!
It was a true privilege to hear about her journey and see how far she has flown. Alice, thank you for stopping by to say hello, we wish you smooth skies and clear horizons ahead!
