Taster Experience 

Year-round tours and taster days

Fairview International School offers year-round tours and taster days for families interested in learning more about our school and the three IB core programmes; the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme, and the Diploma Programme. Our tours allow prospective families to visit our campus, meet our teachers and staff, and see our facilities in person.

During taster days, students can experience a typical day at Fairview International School by participating in classes, activities, and workshops alongside current students. This provides them with insight into our teaching methods, curriculum, and school community.

We encourage families to schedule a tour or taster day at their convenience to discover all that Fairview International School has to offer. Contact us today to arrange a visit and begin your child's journey towards a world-class education.

Fairview Little Explorers

Join us for a Sunday morning of outdoor play and discovery for children aged 3–5! 

Explore the woods, enjoy stories, and have fun with hands-on forest adventures. Led by a certified Forest School instructor.

Our Forest Play Morning encourages children to connect with nature, build confidence, and enjoy learning through play. Parents and carers are kindly asked to supervise their children throughout.

This is a fully outdoor session, so we encourage everyone to dress appropriately for the weather. Waterproof clothing, warm layers and extra scocks are highly recommended, even for parents, as little feet (and big ones!) can get colder than expected during winter months.

We aim to run sessions in most weather conditions; however, if the weather becomes unsafe or too unpleasant, we will notify families on the day via email, so please keep an eye on updates.
