Building a Cohesive Community through Get-to-Know FISCA Breakfast
Dear FIS Community,
The French International School Community Association (FISCA) recently organised a heartwarming volunteer breakfast to bring parents together and strengthen the sense of community within the school. The warm and engaging morning was filled with conversation and meaningful sharing over delicious food. Parents actively participated in discussions and exchanged ideas on the growth and development of our children.
The event was an opportunity for parents to connect and get to know each other, and to learn about how to become more involved with FISCA.
FISCA’s president, Pauline, presented how the organisation has supported the school. She encouraged members to give more active contributions to both support one another and the school. FISCA seeks more volunteers to help organise events, give creative ideas or share expertise. The enthusiasm displayed by the members in response to this call was inspiring.
Nadia, who generously hosted the breakfast, expressed her hope to bring parents together through creative and innovative events. She mentioned that a parent association is a relatively new concept at FIS, but it is an excellent way to get parents more involved in the child’s educational journey.
During the breakfast, various participants shared their thoughts on the significance of community-building and their experiences at FISCA. One parent remarked, “I have been a member of FISCA for about 6 months, and I was delighted with the success of one of the events we organised, the Family Fun Fair.” Another parent added, “As newcomers to Hong Kong, having a parent group has been immensely helpful in our adjustment. It is reassuring to connect with other parents who can share their previous experiences with us.”
As FISCA continues to grow and expand its initiatives, we extend a warm welcome to more volunteers and ideas from the FIS community. We are committed to providing further opportunities for parents to actively participate in initiatives and collaborate in creating a nurturing environment together.
