Welcome from the Elementary School Principal

Welcome to Verdala International School

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to our vibrant learning community at Verdala International School, a place where every child is known, valued, and inspired to grow. At VIS, we believe education should be a transformative journey: one that awakens curiosity, nurtures creativity, and fosters a love of learning that lasts a lifetime. Rooted in enquiry, our approach invites students not only to ask questions and seek answers, but also to discover connections, embrace challenges, and engage meaningfully with the world around them.

In the Elementary School, our shared commitment is to create an environment where high expectations are paired with genuine care, where academic rigour goes hand in hand with joy, and where every child is both supported and challenged to reach their fullest potential. We recognise that learning flourishes when students, teachers, and families work together in a spirit of trust and collaboration, and we are proud to nurture a culture in which every voice is valued, and every learner can thrive.

Central to this vision is the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP), which serves as the cornerstone of our practice. The PYP empowers children to become inquirers, thinkers, and compassionate global citizens, while equipping them with the skills and dispositions to navigate an ever-changing world. Through this framework, we aim not only to strengthen academic foundations, but also to foster character, resilience, and a deep sense of belonging.

We look ahead with excitement and purpose, confident that together we will shape an inspiring, enriching, and memorable learning journey for every child in our care. We invite you to join us on this journey and to be part of the community that makes VIS such a special place to learn and grow.
