International Family Fair – Saturday 8th February – Please wear ISB Name Tags
The International Family Fair (IFF) is one of our finest ISB traditions as we celebrate the many cultures we are proud to have in our school community. For many in our community, this is the favorite day of the year – a real expression of the values and vision of ISB and a great day for the whole family.
Given the coronavirus situation we have been working hard to ensure that the IFF can go ahead and go ahead safely. Our Director of Risk Management, the IFF planning team, and the ISB Leadership Team have developed a number of safeguards with input from International SOS and other infectious disease experts kind enough to advise us.
These IFF safety measures currently include the following:
- We will regularly communicate that anyone who has been to China in the last 14 days, anyone who is unwell, or anyone with a fever should not come on campus. Signs are also in place to this effect at each campus entrance.
- All IFF vendors will be screened prior to coming on campus. This screening will include questions about prior travel and checking temperatures.
- Campus access will be limited to the entrance between the central office and the zig zag path. All adults should wear ISB name tags.
- ISB leadership team members will screen all non-ISB community visitors.
- Hand sanitizer will be available at 15 IFF locations.
- We have spread out our activities to make more use of our outdoor spaces.
Our expert advisors have assured us that IFF can and should go ahead and that our safeguards are appropriate.
Many thanks in advance to our IFF Team, our PTA and to all parent volunteers. We are looking forward to yet another demonstration of the spirit of ISB and our wonderfully diverse community.
