Improvement of investigation skills is the focus area of Science Department. The three well equipped science laboratory facilities is providing opportunity to carry out required investigations and to improve students’ exploration skills. Words of Trust I have been studying in this school since kindergarten and I am in the process of learning something new every day. This school is so united that it reminds me of a huge family of different nationalities and qualities, but we are similar at heart because we all are Appleites. We are given opportunities and one of the events was when we went to Abu Dhabi and saw lot of innovation which enabled me to have a clear view about my future occupation. The Apple international school does not only focus on academic behavior but also on improving our social and extracurricular skills. I love this school and I chose it because it has really ambitious people, like my principal, who always inspires me to become a better human to achieve excellence. -Abdul Hamid Being a part of Apple International School has been a joyful and interesting journey in which I have developed a foundation filled with knowledge and an ability to work independently. This school gives a chance to their students to prove themselves. I got an opportunity to be a part of the IBRP which is working with Dubai Customs to help people to be aware of their intellectual rights. It helped me boost up my confidence and opened me up to a different world of communication. Now I’m in year 10 and the experience throughout the years has been intellectual and involves various activities that improve my life standard as a whole. I love this school and it has taught me not the solution to my life problems but how to deal with them so it is not only educating me but also preparing me for the future. -Jameela T R December | 2018 02
