Bill Harley, a two-time Grammy award-winning artist and an NPR commentator, is coming to AISC. Bill is a singer, storyteller, and author with the Elementary School as his main audience. His music is fun and great for little kids as he does hand motions with the songs, and his books are great for older ES.

Elementary school students and their families are welcome to attend a Family Concert on Monday, February 12, at 3:45 in the Madras Hall. Bill will also have his songs and books for sale afterward. 

If you have any questions, please contact Kirsten Welbes at wkirsten@aischennai.org. 

February PCA Parent Outing
Saravanna Shopping Spree

T. Nagar is the heart of Chennai and Usman Road is the main artery that connects the neighborhood together. It also happens to be the busiest shopping street in the world. On any given day there are thousands of people walking from shop to shop, admiring the silk sarees and shining gold jewelry. On the weekends, it turns into a veritable river of people flowing down the street. Ladies dress in their finest clothes as they browse the windows lining the street. 

On Friday, February 23 we will take a trip to the heart of Chennai to see some of the iconic shopping destinations that attract shoppers from all over Chennai. Our trip will include stops at Saravana Stores to explore 8 floors of clothing and home goods. We will continue down the street to Saravana Jewelry, which has different floors dedicated to different types of jewelry, including diamonds and gemstones. We will also visit Nalli and learn a bit more about what makes a Kancheepuram silk saree unique and then finish our shopping at a typical metalware and housewares store. Hidden treasures can often be found in these shops. We will end our tour with lunch at BKR hotel, a rooftop multicuisine restaurant with a gorgeous view of the city. Sign up online here if you are interested. You will need money for lunch and if you decide to do any shopping.

Maker Carnival Chennai is a free to attend, community focussed event, which will be held on Saturday March 10th, 2018 on the AISC Campus at Taramani. Maker Carnival Chennai takes the form of a “Show Tell and Do” experience where inventors/makers sourced through an open call, will have an opportunity to showcase their creations in a fairground atmosphere, and invite the participants to have a go too. It is a family friendly showcase of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the maker movement.
