Selamat Datang:
It is with great pride that we announce the re-establishing of the NJIS campus on our new site at
Jl. Boulevard Bukit Gading Raya
Kelapa Gading
Jakarta Utara 14240
Phone (021) 4586-5222 or admissions@njis.or.id
Many parents, including yourself, have visited and discussed with us about the possibility of enrolling your children to NJIS. I would encourage you, if you have not already done so, to drop over and personally see the new facilities.
School will open on Thursday, August 9, and some of the classes are close to capacity at this moment. We will be offering Pre-K thru Grade 12. School hours will be 7:30 A.M. to 2:40 P.M., with an after-school program option to 4:00 P.M. for special sports teams in swimming, basketball, soccer, badminton, volleyball, and other sports. We have rejoined the league of small international schools and are arranging competitions with schools like Bandung International School, Surabaya International School, New Zealand International School, Australian International School, and the International School of Bogor.
Besides our strong academic programming leading to university, we also offer a creative Fine Arts Program with our new 400-seat theater to be ready for the second semester. Programs in Band, Strings, Choir, Dance, and Visual Arts have always been one of the best things about NJIS and will now continue with a beautiful theater to showcase the wonderful talents of our students.
All High School students are requested to have a personal interview with me to work out a Four-Year Plan to ensure that they are aware of the graduation requirements. If you are transferring from another school and have already started High School, then you need to bring your report cards and transcripts from your previous High School.
It is highly recommended in order to be in the High School program that allows you to graduate with our graduating classes that you begin this school year in August. Students in the High School may not be able to get the credits they need when they start half way through our school year in January 2013.
NJIS is here to stay. Our semi-Olympic six-lane swimming pool is ready for the Big Splash, and the climbing wall at the roof top will present a panoramic view of the City of Jakarta. Next week, the new state-of-the-art basketball floor will be installed, and the gymnasium will have a separate dance studio and weight room.
We encourage everyone to visit us before the beginning of the new school year. If you have not applied formally, or have indicated that you are returning from last year, we ask that you let us know, as we are now adjusting our class lists and finalizing the subjects for this coming school year. As I mentioned, our school year begins on Thursday, August 9.
If you are planning about being part of the NJIS family please let us know as soon as possible to ensure that we have a place for your children.
