Science Week 2026 was full of curiosity, creativity and fun across the whole school. Students enjoyed daily activities including Teabag Rockets, Microscope Alley, the Helicopter Challenge, the Artemis II House Challenge, quizzes, dress-up day and our whole-school Science Assembly led by our Grade 12 students.

A special thank you to our teachers, led by our expert Science Team, and to our wonderful Facilities and Maintenance Team for creating the amazing giant lever machine featured in the assembly. It was fantastic to see students across all year levels learning together, supported by our Big Buddies and House Captains, with plenty of house points up for grabs throughout the week.

Congratulations to all of our winners and participants for making Science Week such a success at Dili International School.

A proud moment for our school community as School Principal Mr Tim Blackman attended the graduation ceremony of DIS alumni Jason and Micia at Charles Darwin University (CDU), where they graduated with Bachelor of Computer Science degrees.

Jason and Micia are the first graduates under the DIS–CDU Scholarship Program, a special partnership agreement established in 2022 to support Timorese students in accessing international university pathways.

The growth of this partnership continues to be wonderful to see. From our graduating class of 2025 alone, 7 DIS students are now studying at CDU, alongside other DIS graduates studying under the scholarship agreement and through independent enrolment pathways.

As part of this trip, Mr Tim also travelled to Melbourne, where he met with DIS alumni currently studying at universities across Melbourne. He also attended meetings with Haileybury College, our partner in delivering the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), as well as the CEO of the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority, reaffirming DIS’s strong ongoing commitment to delivering a high-quality and inclusive VCE program for students in Timor-Leste.

We are incredibly proud of Jason and Micia and all of our alumni continuing their studies internationally while representing both Timor-Leste and the DIS community with pride.

Grade 5/6 students are learning about chemical change as part of their Unit of Inquiry. In the science laboratory with our senior chemistry teacher, Mr Peter; students investigated how carbon dioxide changes water by blowing bubbles into water mixed with universal indicator.

These hands-on learning experiences are one of the many ways we work together as one school at DIS, with students benefiting from the expertise of teachers across different year levels and subject areas.

This Transdisciplinary Unit covers Science, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Health within the Australian Curriculum, with a focus on biological sciences, sustainability, food production and healthy choices.
