ISS

THE ISS SITE

The school sits on a small plot of land in the Mont Fleuri district south of Victoria. When the school was founded over 30 years ago, the site was dominated by a large colonial-style house - this was the original school building.

As time has gone on, the school has expanded and new buildings have been erected to provide extra teaching spaces and new facilities. Eventually the old house was removed to make way for the modern, airy buildings that now surround the playground. The result is a school that is up-to-date, attractive and a pleasant environment in which to teach and learn.

	Main Gates Welcome to the International School Seychelles
	The Playground This is the heart of the school. Surrounded on three sides by classrooms, it is used for breaktime play, PE activities and after-school clubs
	Junior Block and Secondary Extension Our newest building completed in 2006. The original Junior Block remains as the ground floor, whilst new secondary classrooms, a new IT room, and office space have been added above.
	The Mango Tree This is the last remnant of the original school! It provides shade (and juicy mangoes!) now, just as it did 30 years ago. Notice also the three peaks of 'Trois Freres' in the background.
	The 'New' Block This building contains most of the Early Childhood section, secondary classrooms, the Library, Sixth Form study rooms and the hall (the large room to the right studded with small coloured windows)
	Under the Mango Tree A cool shady place to sit and chat with your friends
	The Admin Block The school offices are located here as well as Science labs, Art and humanities rooms and one of the IT rooms.
	Lunchtime Students can get food and snacks from the Tuck Shop at breaks and after school. They covered seating areas in which to eat away from the midday sun.
	Playtime Students from Juniors and Early Childhood (in green) mix and play with Secondary students (in white). Without exception, students at the ISS are helpful, friendly and sociable.
	The 'Admin' Block Again!
	Playhouse and Climbing Frames Provided for the younger students to enjoy and shaded by a large yellow coconut tree (the nuts are regularly harvested to avoid any potential nut-on-head incidents!)
	The 'Gazebo' Shaded seating for Secondary students is provided at the end of the New Block.
	The Class in a Bus! A novel way of increasing our teaching space, this retired SPTC bus is the classroom for one of our extension classes. The students love learning on a bus!
	The Play Area As part of the acquisition of new land for car parking, we grassed this area to provide a green and shady place for the younger students to play.
