Name Change Update
After receiving strong support from our school community through the recent survey, the name change to Ulsan Hyundai International School was approved by the Hyundai Education Foundation Board at their most recent meeting.
We are now finalising the required paperwork with the Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education. Once formal approval has been granted, we will begin implementing the necessary logistical changes. We anticipate that most of this process will be completed over the winter break, and the school will start with the new name from Term 2.
New Buses
UHIS will be getting brand new buses!
Look out for the new, smaller, more comfortable buses sometime next week.
Winter Show Talents
The students have been invited to show off a talent during the talent show part of our Winter Show.
The form for registering a talent show entry is included below.
At UHIS, we value open and respectful communication with our parent community. If you ever have a concern or question, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the school directly so we can listen, clarify, and work together toward a positive solution. The school has a consultative body called the School Consultative Group for such a purpose, and the doors of the Principal’s and Executive Board Member’s Office are always open for discussion at all times. Through open discussions and by exploring the solutions together, we can ensure that every concern is handled fairly and in the best interests of the whole school community.
Construction Work
Construction work to build a new car park and alternate entrance for the school will begin next week and continue through to the end of the year. The diagram below shows the area that will be affected. Learning and school operations will continue as normal, though there may be some occasional noise during the construction period.
Please note that the construction of an additional entrance is required by the government and the cost is being born by HD Hyundai.
Last Friday, the students enjoyed a wonderful Halloween party organised by our PTA and many helpful parent volunteers.

Halloween
Our amazing Halloween party is next Friday, 24th October, from 2pm to 4.30pm, and the PTA and helpers are already busy creating a wonderful experience for our students.
Please note:
Students are encouraged to dress up in a Halloween costume on this day. They could come to school wearing the costume or change after lunch. All costumes should be appropriate for a school setting.

Candy donation are welcomed by the PTA and should be sent to the Admin Office before Thursday
Parents are very welcome to attend the Halloween event. Make sure you dress up!
Masks Decorating Competition
All students have been given a blank paper mask to decorate in with their most imaginative Halloween design.
Please bring your mask on the day of the Halloween party. The most creative mask will win a prize!
A letter from the PTA
This year, our PTA has become much smaller, and it has been challenging to manage activities.
As a result, we are facing a shortage of funds for organizing school events and activities for the students. To support these programs, we will be starting a voluntary donation campaign. There is no set amount — even a 500 KRW donation is deeply appreciated. You can contribute anytime through the PTA donation box located at the school. The donation box will be placed in a visible spot during school events, so please feel free to participate when you attend. If you would like, you may include your child’s name with your donation to be acknowledged, or you may give anonymously if you prefer. All donations are managed separately through the PTA account by the school and are used 100% for student events and activities. We sincerely appreciate your warm support and participation. Thank you
Parent Consultative Group – Prospective Member
Mrs Park Hee Eun (Hayome’s mother) has kindly expressed her interest in joining the Parent Consultative Group. If there are no objections or additional parents wishing to join, Mrs Park will become a member of the group from our next meeting.
In accordance with the group’s policy, if more parents express interest, an election will be held to determine the new member. Please contact Mr Green if you would like to discuss this matter further.
The school is very appreciative of parents who actively contribute to our community by sharing their perspectives and supporting collaboration between families and the school.

Invitation to the WeHOPE Culture Festa
UHIS has been invited to take part in the upcoming WeHOPE Culture Festa, an international community event celebrating diversity and cultural exchange in Ulsan. The festival will take place at Taehwa Riverside on Saturday 8th November and will feature cultural performances, activity booths and an international flea market.
WeHOPE has warmly invited our school community to participate through performances, cultural displays or family-run booths. This is a wonderful opportunity to share the international spirit of UHIS and connect with the wider Ulsan community.
If you are interested in being involved, please contact the school.
Ramen for Lunch
To help keep our students safe at lunchtime, we ask that students in Mrs Sim’s and Miss Staines’ classes do not bring ramen for lunch. It is not possible to supervise each student as they pour hot water and move around the cafeteria.
Art Updates
Please remember that Miss Yuli posts an update of what each class has been doing in art each week.
As part of our whole-school approach to PSHE through the Jigsaw program, we have created a Jigsaw Charter together. This charter helps us build a safe, respectful, and caring classroom community.
Each class has discussed and agreed on simple rules to help everyone feel comfortable to share, listen, and learn together. These include taking turns to speak, using kind and positive words, respecting others’ privacy, and listening carefully to each other.
The Jigsaw Charter will guide how we behave and interact, supporting our students’ emotional wellbeing and social development throughout the year.

We wish our UHIS families a joyful and peaceful Chuseok. This special time reminds us to pause, give thanks and celebrate the people who bring meaning to our lives. At UHIS, we are grateful for the strong sense of community that connects our students, staff and families, much like Chuseok itself, which celebrates gratitude, family and togetherness.
May your days be filled with warmth, good food and happy moments shared with loved ones.
Happy Chuseok from UHIS 🌕🍂
Name Change Survey
As many of you will already be aware, as part of our ongoing development, UHIS is exploring the possibility of changing our name to Ulsan Hyundai International School. This change would reflect more clearly the international education we provide, our diverse community, and our strong ties to both Ulsan and HD Hyundai. We would greatly value your thoughts on this proposal.
Please take a few minutes to read the explanation contained below and complete our short parent survey.
We surveyed parents in February 2024, and we are now running a second survey to ensure that every parent’s opinion is represented, including new families.
We hope to hear from every parent, so we will be sending gentle reminders and giving friendly follow-up calls from next week.
Thank you to the parents and staff who attended our School Consultative Group meeting on Wednesday, 1st October. As always, the school is very grateful to Mr Donnison, who acts as a parent representative and shared valuable opinions and feedback from a parent’s perspective. We are keen to hear from any parent who wishes to join this group, and Mr Donnison is happy to hear from parents who would like to suggest agenda items for our next meeting.
The group discussed a range of important topics for the school community:
Policy Reviews – All school policies and handbooks are being updated and are now available on the school website as live documents. Parents will always have access to the most up-to-date versions.
School Name Change – A parent survey on the proposed new name, Ulsan Hyundai International School, will run from 3rd to 17th October. Reminders will be sent to encourage all families to share their views.
CIS Accreditation – UHIS will begin its new CIS accreditation cycle with a preliminary engagement visit in May 2026, followed by a second visit in 2027. Parents will have opportunities to meet the CIS visitor.
Facilities Update – Construction of a separate entrance to meet legal requirements will be completed by December 2025. Student drop-off arrangements will remain the same.
School Bus – New buses will begin service soon, possibly by the end of Term 1. From the academic year 2026/27, the school plans to introduce a modest bus fee (much lower than nearby international schools) to cover improvements such as a dedicated bus monitor, freeing teaching assistants to focus on classroom support. Further details will follow.
Assessment – The school is considering moving from Cambridge Insight and Checkpoint tests to MAP testing, which offers more useful feedback for teachers and parents. Parent opinions will be gathered in October before a final decision in November.
The next meeting of the School Consultative Group will take place on Wednesday 28th January 2026.

This contribution will help cover the cost of external support and resources, allowing the small team of volunteers to create a safe, fun and memorable experience for all.
You can contact the PTA via their KakaoTalk group, which anyone is free to join.
It has been a busy and joyful week at UHIS, filled with learning, celebration and community spirit. Our Chuseok event brought families, staff and students together to enjoy performances, games and traditional treats, reminding us of the importance of gratitude and togetherness.
Looking ahead, we are excited to be taking part in a range of sporting and community events with SKAIS, as well as preparing for Open Day and our much-anticipated Halloween celebration.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support and involvement in school life.

Fire Alarm
On Thursday, we carried out a fire drill to ensure that all staff and students are familiar with the correct procedures if the fire alarm sounds during the school day. The drill went smoothly, with everyone evacuating the building safely and assembling at the designated area at the far end of the football pitch.
We would also like to remind all visitors that, in the event of a fire alarm, they must evacuate immediately and join us at the muster point at the end of the pitch. For this reason, it is very important that all visitors sign in at reception on arrival so that we can account for everyone on site.
Regular practice like this helps us to keep our community safe and ensures that students, staff and visitors all know exactly what to do in the unlikely event of an emergency.
Bus Code of Conduct
To help us keep the school bus a safe and respectful space for all children, we kindly ask all families to complete the Bus Code of Conduct Form. If you have not yet done so, please submit the form by Friday 12th September using the link below:
Thank you for supporting positive behaviour and safety on the bus.
Also, for safety reasons, students should board and get off the bus only at their designated stop. We check boarding based on the stop that was registered, so using a different stop may cause confusion and raise safety concerns.
SKAIS Events
The South Korea Association of International Schools (SKAIS) is a network of international schools that work together to share best practices and organise interschool events.

Lunches
To help lunch run smoothly, we ask parents to consider:
Microwaveable lunchboxes – If food needs to be heated up, it should be in a microwaveable container. Spills most often happen when we have to transfer food to another container to be heated.
Cutlery – Please provide eating utensils.
Dropped Lunches – Sometimes students drop their lunches. If a lunch is dropped on the floor, the Admin Office will contact parents for a replacement, so that your child can still enjoy their lunch. The school cannot provide food.
