Letter from the Chair of the School Board
Dear parents,

I am happy to inform you that Mr Alex Inman has been formally appointed as the new school principal.

As you may know he has been acting as principal for some time now and we believe that due to his knowledge of the school and his professional experience it is a good choice for us. Mr Inman has been an international school principal in Germany so has experience of the German education system and he also holds a principals license as well as extensive leadership experience in IB schools.

We wish Mr Inman success and are happy to support and work together with him as the new leadership team of DSKI.

Yours sincerely,

Petra Steiners
Chair of the School Board

Bicycle Safety
If we have enough interest we will run a bicycle safety course. Just to show students how they can use hand signals, cross junctions safely and just generally be more aware when cycling. We would run it before school, from 8.15am - 8.45am, to avoid any clash with lessons or clubs. 
All ages welcome, free of charge, bike needed.
