How NHIS and Families Work Together for Student Success

New Horizon International School believes that a strong partnership between school and home plays a pivotal role in a child's education. From creating meaningful experiences to fostering transparency, the school goes beyond the conventional parent-teacher interactions by involving parents directly in their children's school journey through a range of exciting and interactive events.

Here are some of the key initiatives that bring parents closer to the NHIS experience:

1. Aikyam

2. Daddy’s Day

3. New Horizon with a Twist

4. Coffee Connect

Aikyam:

Aikyam, a signature event of New Horizon International School (NHIS), highlights a significant layer of parental involvement. This celebration is themed Back to Our Roots, that takes parents on a nostalgic journey, recreating the traditional games and activities that they enjoyed as children. From Lagori to hopscotch and a puppet show set in a village-like atmosphere, Aikyam encourages parents to relive their childhood while connecting with their kids, fostering a sense of togetherness and cultural appreciation.

Daddy's Day:

One of the key events that showcase the school’s commitment to family engagement is Daddy's Day. This special day is designed to strengthen the bond between fathers and their children, allowing them to participate in various fun-filled activities together.

Daddy's Day is an opportunity to recognize and appreciate the love, care, and hard work fathers put into their families. NHIS proudly celebrates the incredible contributions dads make, fostering a strong sense of community and connection within the school.

New Horizon with a Twist:

NHIS also organized a special event for parents called New Horizon with a Twist. Through this initiative, parents get to experience a day in the life of an NHIS student. From attending classes to participating in extracurricular activities, parents have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the school day as their children do, gaining valuable insight into the educational process. This day gives them a fresh perspective on how learning takes place at NHIS, while making them nostalgic about their school days.

Coffee Connect:

To maintain open communication, NHIS organizes Coffee Connect sessions, where parents meet with the school’s principal and headmistress for interactive discussions. This platform allows parents to share their thoughts, express concerns, and hear about the school's latest achievements and future plans. Coffee Connect has become a vital part of building trust, ensuring that the school remains transparent in their operations and maintains an open line of communication between school and home.

The school continuously strives to create an environment where families feel connected, informed, and engaged.
