Dear Parents,
An education at Faria International School is about actively combining challenging and enriching experiences with
academic rigour and creative opportunities. We want our students to have the courage to push back the boundaries of
their experience and to explore the possibilities that are available to them. Whilst we are proud of their academic
results, there is so much more to the education we provide. It is, therefore, important that parents wholeheartedly
support the ethos of the school.
Whether it is in the classroom, on the stage, whilst participating in an expedition, on the sports field or when serving
others, we want our students to experience the excitement of discovering they are capable of achieving far more than
they ever felt was possible. We have high expectations of our students and they, in turn, have high expectations of
themselves.
On this note, I would like to present the first report card of this academic year. Lets work together to create an
environment for true development.
Kind regards,
John Walden
