Dar es Salaam Independent School

Welcome to the vibrant world of Class 6K! We are thrilled to start this final primary year with you. Year 6 is about more than just academics; it’s about preparing our students to be the leaders of tomorrow.

Excellence via Cambridge
Following the Cambridge Curriculum, Class 6K focuses on mastery. As we approach the Cambridge Checkpoint exams, our goal is to turn "learning" into "understanding." These assessments are not just tests; they are a celebration of everything your child has achieved during their primary years.
Thinking Globally
Through Global Perspectives, 6K students will engage in deep inquiry. We ask the big questions: How does globalization affect our local markets? How can we communicate more effectively across cultures? This curriculum ensures that when our students move to secondary school, they do so with a broad, empathetic worldview.
Exploring the Highlands
• Day Trips: Our day trips this year are highly "subject-integrated," meaning a single visit to a local site might involve a Math data-collection task, a Science observation, and a Creative Writing prompt.
• The Iringa Expedition: Alongside their peers, 6K will head to Iringa. This overnight trip is the ultimate bonding experience. Exploring the cold, beautiful landscapes of the Southern Highlands provides the perfect backdrop for students to reflect on their primary journey while visiting sites of immense historical and geographical importance.
