Staff Appreciation Event - Monday May 9, 2022

 

We will be hosting our annual staff appreciation lunch on Monday May 9, 2022, in order to show our sincere thanks for the AISC facilities and support staff and the great work they do at AISC.  A biryani lunch will be ordered, therefore we do not require parent donations for this event.
