Dear Parents and Caregivers,
As this is the last week of the 2020 school year, Lihir International School wishes you all a merry Christmas and a prosperous and happy New Year in 2021. We hope to see you all back for the new school year on Wednesday January 23. May you all have a safe and enjoyable Christmas break with your families.
We farewell Mrs Patricia Armstrong this term at the completion of her second year at LIS. We thank her for her commitment to her students and to the LIS team and wish her all the very best for the future.
