Download - The International School Of Penang

WELCOME TO UPLANDS
Uplands is a school that is constantly energised by the flow of international students
passing through its doors. Some students stay for a long while, and still others have to
move on far too quickly. But that is the nature of an international school. Even though
the faces change from year to year, there is always a warm and friendly atmosphere to
enjoy at Uplands. And even though some may only enjoy a brief time at Uplands, we
have many long serving staff members who ensure that the long standing Uplands
traditions never die.
The parent community is well served by the dedicated Parent-Teacher Association,
which is made up of both new arrivals and parents who have seen their children
through many years at Uplands.
Uplands teaching staff is made up of many nationalities. The teachers form an
incredibly talented faculty, who help children reach their potential in the many
academic, physical, social and cultural pursuits offered at Uplands community.
I am so pleased to be able to welcome you to the Uplands community. I hope that you
and your family have an enjoyable experience at Uplands no matter how long you are
with us, and that you build many fond memories to look back on in the future.
Warmest regards,
Dr John Horsfall
