The new school year has begun, and the Voice is back with a new issue full of various articles for everyone to enjoy. This new edition explores new beginnings within the school year, along with new changes in the school, such as the student council and new tips in beginning new classes. I am the new Senior Editor for this year, and though I only joined last year, I have continued to work collaboratively and independently at the Voice, and I am looking forward to what this year’s Voice can accomplish and bring to the ISA community. I hope to take part as much as possible in working as a team at the Voice in creating helpful, communicative, and engaging articles for all to enjoy.

In the Voice of the following year, we hope to continue to advocate various issues globally and spread useful information for all in the ISA community, especially school-related news for all students to learn and read about.

This Voice issue, edition 14.1 includes various types of articles, such as school-based topics of an introduction to this year’s new student council, helpful tips in organizing time and getting work done, student and teacher interviews, as well as other topics, including film and show reviews, to appreciate outside of school. Of course, other than literary articles, there are also collections of poetry, crossword puzzles, and drawings to enjoy for everyone. Happy reading!

Who We Are...

The Voice is the International School of Amsterdam’s official Upper School student Newspaper. We are grade 6-12 students who meet each week during lunch on Thursdays for planning, publication and development of the newspaper– there is no journalism class that supports the project. We commit our time and energy to support our school, our community, and our own growth as thinkers and writers. The Voice is open to all that share a passion for writing and wish to make the ideas of themselves and their communities heard.
