OUR BEGINNINGS IN 2007 & 2008
Read about our High School and Elementary School division beginnings.
The Creative and Performing Arts inspire our students to portray their ideas and emotions in a way they cannot express through language alone. For many children, involvement in the Arts from an early age will turn into a life-long relationship. At SJI International, we provide many opportunities for our students to engage with the Creative and Performing Arts, as one experience can connect with another discipline or subject within the Arts.
Our students are guided to become confident individuals, global thinkers, and responsible citizens through creating, performing, and responding. We promote the Arts through several events throughout the year. These opportunities provide the platform through which they can embrace the beautiful disciplines of art, photography, dance, drama, and music.
We give our students the opportunity to perform in our school assemblies weekly. Students can explore and share their abilities through solo, ensemble, or class performances. This assembly is often the first exposure our students have to perform in front of a large audience, and what better audience than their supportive peers and teachers?
Prep 1 to Grade 1
Christmas Nativity, these delightful performances are performed intimately for just the class parents, which brings home beautifully the message and magic of Christmas.
Grade 2 & Grade 3
Global Family Festival, students can explore our cultural diversity, create performances and participate in a grade musical ensemble.
Grade 4
Performance of Expressions, each class takes on the planning, presentation and performance of a range of expressions to capture.
Grade 5
In musical performance, students learn skills in stagecraft and presentation, acting skills, and musical performance.
Our annual Art Show provides a platform for all our children to showcase their artwork. All individual and class pieces are displayed for families to share on a special evening. Viewing the range of art forms from all the children is truly a spectacular experience.
Creative and Performing Arts have the power to transform children’s lives. They grow in confidence, cooperation, commitment, excellence and joyfulness. We hope to awaken these virtues in every student with every opportunity they receive.
