AIS offers a wide range of athletic, artistic and social learning opportunities that foster emotional, social and physical well-being. Voorleesweek is celebrated at AIS to share the love of reading between students. The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award at AIS began in October 2015 with 27 students; since then students have undertaken adventurous journeys in various locations.
All parents are part of the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). The PTO, staff and management work together to enrich the school experience; many parents volunteer in the classroom, organise social events or assist our sports and theatre departments. The Booster Club supports the athletic programme by running the concessions stand and funding special equipment; the group is committed to raising school spirit and involvement of students and parents. The Costume Department comprises parent volunteers who sew costumes and assist with set design for AIS theatre productions.
