UHIS Newsletter – T1W9 – 2026/27 – Ulsan Hyundai International School

Nine weeks of great learning have brought us to a well-deserved break. We hope all our students and families have time to rest, recharge and enjoy the holiday. We look forward to more learning, fun and community moments throughout the rest of the term, including the lead-up to Christmas.

Halloween at UHIS

We had a wonderful time celebrating Halloween at UHIS. Thank you to the PTA and the parent volunteers who helped organise, decorate and make it such a great day.

We are also very grateful for the generous candy donations. A special well done to Ms Murray’s class for creating fun activities for the other students to enjoy.

Ms Temple’s Maternity Cover

We are pleased to share that Ms Tanisha Roberts will be joining UHIS to cover Ms Temple’s maternity leave. Ms Tanisha is already well known to our students and has worked at UHIS as an EAL teacher and support teacher for a number of years . She also holds a full teaching licence and knows our school community well.

To support a smooth transition, Ms Tanisha will begin working alongside Ms Temple in Week 14 of this term. We are very confident that she will do a wonderful job and that the class will be in excellent hands.

Mr Green Out of School

Mr Green will be out of school on the afternoon of Friday 23 October and will unfortunately miss the Halloween event. He will be travelling to Cambodia to lead a Council of International Schools (CIS) accreditation team visit to International School of Phnom Penh.

The visit is entirely funded by the school being visited and comes at no cost to UHIS. Taking part in CIS visits is a valuable professional opportunity, providing the chance to see effective practice in international education in context, exchange ideas with colleagues and bring learning back to our own school community.

Part-time EAL Teacher

UHIS is seeking a passionate and dedicated part-time EAL Teacher to support students learning English as an additional language. The role starts in December 2026, and applications close on 13 November 2026.

We would be grateful if families and friends could share this opportunity with suitable candidates. Read the full job advert and application details.

Christmas Gift Giving

For many years, the UHIS community has supported disadvantaged children at Ulsan Children’s Home through our Christmas Gift Giving programme, a valued school tradition. We are delighted that 11 gift promises have already been made. Thank you for the generous start. Families can still choose and reserve a requested gift.

PTA KakaoTalk Groups

Our PTA has created optional KakaoTalk groups for each class to help parents stay connected and support events for students. If you would like to join your class group, please use the invitation link or QR code shared by your PTA representative.

Bottle Cap Collection

We have reached our bottle-cap target, a fantastic achievement. Thank you to everyone who has collected and sent in caps. Bottle caps are still very welcome as we begin sorting them into colours and designing our mosaic artwork. The collecting may be complete, but the creative part is only just beginning.
