Middle & secondary school 

MIDDLE SCHOOL - GRADE 6

The transition for your child from Primary School to Senior School can be daunting and at VIS we endeavour to make this step up as smooth as possible. Your child will learn to become more independent, resourceful and organised as they mature and acquire the necessary skills to adapt to the change. Current TISB Grade 5 students take part in ‘Transition Week’ which includes time with our current Grade 6 students.
