On Thursday 5th March 2026 our Year 2 students went on an exciting field trip to the Four Seasons nursery. The purpose of this trip was for our students to have the opportunity to learn more about how plants grow, a topic covered in Science. Our students enjoyed a nature scavenger hunt, learnt how to pot plants and enjoyed a picnic and play session in the Four Seasons gardens. We would like to thank the Four Seasons Nursery Management for hosting our students, our Parents and Teachers for your support towards the trip.

On Saturday 28th February 2026 our under-16 boys basketball team enjoyed a friendly game against Good Shepherd International School. The game started at a very fast pace with both teams managing to score basket for basket until Good Shepherd changed strategy and managed to defend and counter attack the youthful
MSIS boys who succumbed to a 18 – 30 defeat.

Our under 16 boys football team were victorious in the football match against Bambino Private School. The availability of a good
goalkeeper in Tapiwa Alabu who managed to keep a clean sheet in as many games helped quite a lot. Everyone who participated in this game gave their best and the introduction of Alistar Kadango from the Middle school who went on to score a beautiful goal inspired most of the senior boys in the team. The other goal scorers were Famous Theula (2goals), Honest Tembo and Deson Nankhuni.
