This week, the HQIS End of Year Carnival came to a spectacular close, leaving a trail of unforgettable memories and joyous moments. This year’s carnival was an exceptional showcase of talent, creativity, and community spirit, featuring six distinct events.

The school market was the heartbeat of the EOY Carnival, bustling with energy and a plethora of activities. Students, parents, and teachers mingled in a lively atmosphere filled with international food stalls, exciting games, and engaging booth activities. Music filled the background, and each booth saw long lines of eager participants. POH and Student council also organized various activities for parents and children to experience.

The Grade 5 and Kindergarten graduation ceremonies were heartwarming events that celebrated the achievements of the youngest members of the HQIS community. Proud parents and teachers watched as the graduates, dressed in their caps and gowns, received their diplomas. The ceremonies were filled with songs, emotional speeches, and joyful tears. Our heartfelt congrats to our little graduates! Well done!

On the last day of our Carnival, the HQIS Musical Club amazed us with “Harry Potter”, a spellbinding performance that transported the audience to the wizarding world of Hogwarts. The students delivered an outstanding production, complete with elaborate costumes, impressive sets, and captivating acting. 

The Festival of The Arts has been once again a feast for the eyes, showcasing the incredible artistic talents of our students here at HQIS. The art gallery featured a stunning array of paintings, sculptures, and projects, each piece reflecting unique perspectives and creativity. This year, the gallery was filled with extraordinary pieces of street art featuring graffiti, 3D and clay sculptures, beautifully decorated skateboards, logos, and unique installation art pieces made by the students. Visitors marveled at the intricate details and imaginative concepts on display.

The traditional Talent Show has shown us a vibrant display of artistic skills, featuring a wide array of performances from the older students. 

The grand finale of this phenomenal week was a very welcome one: an exciting water party at school for both children and teachers! The event was filled with laughter, splashes, and lots of fun. Kids enjoyed various water games, including water balloon tosses and water gun battles, while teachers joined in the fun, getting soaked and playing alongside the students. It was a fantastic way to cool off and greet the upcoming summer!
