Congratulations to our Sports Teams
We had two inter-school competitions today, our upper primary football team playing at One World International School in Osaka and our basketball team playing here at DSKI.
Both our football team and our basketball teams won gold! Congratulations to both teams!






Help needed - one of our students in Grade 5/6 is currently researching about the evolution of sports shoes, in particular basketball shoes. Do any parent shave any old basketball shoes from past styles? Or any shoes in photos? If you do, please let the office know and we will contact you. Thankyou!

STEM Week
16th - 19th March 2026 
We are thrilled to announce our theme for STEM week this year will be "STEM at DSKI!", coming to life from March 16th to 19th! It’s going to be an action-packed week dedicated to sparking curiosity and hands-on discovery across the whole school. Our young innovators will have the chance to dive into the future with a 3D Printing Workshop and a fascinating session with a guest speaker exploring the world of AI. Our STEM room will also be transformed into a hub of science and engineering, where every grade level will rotate through a series of interactive challenges and experiments. From testing the laws of physics to creative problem-solving, we can’t wait to see our students’ ideas take flight. Keep an eye out for photos of our little scientists in action throughout the week!
