PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Foreign School had an excellent start for the 2022 2023
year
smooth start can be attributed to a great team of passionate teachers who have set the students on the right path
could not succeed without our hard working and supportive administration team, who make sure the facilities and logistics of the school run like clockwork, and the amazing parents who believe in what we do at KFS Last but not least, we have to credit our awesome students who have come into the year eager to learn, collaborate, socialize and have fun at school. I have high hopes for the rest of the year and will keep you updated on our social media and through this newsletter

The Boys and Girls Volleyball teams traveled to Daegu for their first tournament of the season The morning started slow for the boys’ team. They fell to AIS in three intense matches But the afternoon proved to be their time to shine With some serving runs complemented by some aggressive net play the boys team came alive to win both of their matches against GIFS and DIS The boys team ended #2 overall in their pool of play.
The girls’ volleyball team started the morning on fire. They went three matches against DIS for an exciting win After lunch they continued their win streak thanks to some amazing serving runs. The girls played with a lot of heart, great attitudes, and teamwork but fell in their final match against AIS. The girls’ team finished the day #2 overall in their pool of play as well Both teams were great ambassadors of KFS Please congratulate them on their success as
see them today. The teams will travel to Busan, November 17th for a shot at becoming SKAC champions
