Räumlichkeiten & Lage
Bereit für eine fördernde Lernumgebung
Unser Primar- und Sekundarschulcampus befinden sich fussläufig ca. 5 Minuten voneinander entfernt. Beide Gebäude liegen praktisch in der Nähe des Bahnhofs Wallisellen. Somit sind wir aus vielen Richtungen einfach zu erreichen.
Unsere grossen und hellen, modern ausgestatteten Klassenzimmer bilden den perfekten Rahmen für ein förderndes Lernumfeld.

Für uns sind ausserschulische Aktivitäten ein sehr wichtiger Bestandteil unseres Lehrplans, weil sie unseren Schülerinnen und Schülern dabei helfen, eine Leidenschaft für etwas zu finden.
Das Verlassen der eigenen Komfortzone unterstützt ihr Kind dabei, wichtige Fähigkeiten zu erlangen, die im späteren Leben hilfreich sein werden.

🎸✨ The Secret Gig hit ISZN recently!
Grade 2 and 3 students took part in a brilliant live writing session led by Times Tables Rock Stars and Pobble. They were joined by thousands of students from schools across the world.
The prompt? The Secret Gig – a surprise concert by the legendary TTRS band. Students imagined discovering a hidden show, built bold stories, and blended maths with creativity in unexpected ways.
It was energetic, imaginative, and completely original. A global moment that made writing exciting.
Huge thanks to @TTRockStars and @teampobble for making learning come alive.

🎉 Samar Kashyap (ISZN Grade 1 Student) Shortlisted in Global Maths Storytelling Competition! 🎉
We are so proud to celebrate Samar Kashyap, a curious and creative Grade 1 student here at ISZN, whose story “The Tally Challenge” has been shortlisted in the 2025 Young Mathematical Story Authors (YMSA) Competition! 🏅📖📊
Samar’s story follows Tom, a student given the task of scoring a school sports camp. He rises to the challenge using clear, clever tally charts. It is a playful and thoughtful way to show how maths can be part of everyday life.
“I like all the sports in it and I tried to make tallies understandable in a fun way… I would like all maths teachers to let kids make stories out of math to make math easier and more fun!” – Samar, age 7
The judges praised Samar’s original idea, the clarity of his diagrams, and the message that everyone can take part — not just the athletes. We could not agree more.
Well done, Samar. You have shown us how powerful young voices can be when learning meets creativity. 👏🌟

Grade 5 PYP Exhibition 🌍
The Exhibition marks the end of our students’ primary journey — and the beginning of something bigger.
They explored issues that matter, connected them to their values, and shared ideas for action with clarity and confidence.
They learned to ask better questions, challenge assumptions, and reflect on what kind of impact they want to have.
More than anything, they showed that understanding leads to responsibility — and action.
A big thank you to Mark Williams and Jennifer Schmidt, for guiding and preparing them so thoughtfully every step of the way. 🙌
We’re incredibly proud of the capable, compassionate young people they’ve become. 💛
