BOARD PARENT
By
BRONWYN COX
Expression of Interest to serve on the board of the International School, Port of Spain.
Bronwyn Cox is the parent of two students enrolled at ISPS. She and her husband have four children, the eldest is a doctor who lives and practices in Houston, TX, and the next attends college
in Louisiana. The youngest are in the 8th and 10th grades and will both continue to attend ISPS
during the 2016-7 school year. The family moved here from Texas just over two years ago and
have been a part of the ISPS community since January of 2014.
She is the Wells Operations Manager for BP in Port of Spain. In this role she is responsible for
the safe, compliant and efficient operation of the offshore rigs. Bronwyn has worked for BP for
over 15 years with most of her career spent in Houston. Prior to BP she worked for Schlumberger for 5 years in their International team in the UK, Nigeria, Canada and the US; and previously
was a design engineer for Sagentia (Scientific Generics) in the UK. She has held a variety of leadership roles for over 10 years in both engineering and operations, and her teams have won several awards both within BP and in the Oil and Gas industry.
Bronwyn grew up in the UK, and completed GCSE’s and O-levels (10 A’s and 1 B). She was the
top student in her country upon completing A-levels with 5 A’s (Physics, Chemistry, Biology,
Mathematics and Further Mathematics). She continued her education after a gap year by
attending the University of Cambridge, reading Engineering and followed with the completion
of a Masters in Engineering and a Post-Graduate Certificate in Design, Manufacture and Management, also at Cambridge. Whilst an undergrad at Pembroke College, she was captain of the
women’s rugby team, played cricket, soccer and lacrosse for fun and was the coxswain of both
the College Men’s 1st Eight and the University Lightweights Men’s Eight at Henley.
As the parent of children who have spent most of their lives in the USA, Bronwyn is very familiar
with the American education system. This, combined with first hand knowledge of the UK System and MYP from ISPS would aid in discussions with many of the parents. Bronwyn has held
positions at a previous school in Houston where she was the Secretary and then President of
the Junior High Orchestra Parents Association. This association was a tax-exempt business
which organized events, raised money for the school orchestra and funded scholarships.
Bronwyn is excited to bring her leadership experiences and drive for excellence to ISPS.

Dear ISPS Community,
I have two sons who learn at the ISPS, in grades Two and Pre-K respectively. We are
Indian nationals and moved to Port of Spain from Rio de Janeiro in 2013.
I am currently working as General Manager, Commercial with Royal Dutch Shell. In this
role, I lead a team of commercial professionals managing Shell’s integrated gas chain in
Trinidad and working on several fronts to deliver the business’ full potential for all our
stakeholders. My career in the oil & gas industry started with BG Group in 1997 in India. Since then I have worked in a variety of roles and locations, including the UK, India,
Brazil and Trinidad and Tobago.
I was born and brought up in India. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering at the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) at Delhi, and a post graduate diploma in Management at the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) at Ahmedabad in India. During college years, I was also active in sport and community activities,
and was Dramatics Representative for my hostel at IIT Delhi and Class Representative

came to the oil & gas industry when I joined BG in India in 1997.
Nominee Statements:
I would like to volunteer myself as a candidate to serve on the ISPS Board.
My experience of working in different locations and cultures has motivated me to improve my understanding of how to develop and nurture learning and collaboration;
whilst celebrating diversity. I feel we can learn as much from our children as they can
from us, and I would be very happy to work with you in providing them the best environment we can to learn and grow up in.

Congrats to the Ashland Falls Cast & Crew
To Ms. Forde and the Cast and Crew of "Ashland Falls"
The performance last night was WONDERFUL.
New Skirt
In order to help us to apply our uniform policy,
a slightly modified quality skirt for girls was selected last year and has been on sale at Espree in
the Falls at West Mall near the school.
Along with seasoned performers like Sonrisa, Mandisa and Katy we have
many up and coming thespians like Vandita, Dominic, Kathryn, Goretty, Graham, Naomi, Lael-Anne, Poppaea and Maria (from middle school),. They all
did a tremendous job with a challenging play.
Well done!
Students will be required to wear the new skirts
and conform to the length requirements stipulated in our uniform policy (found in the
Parent/Student Handbook). Specifically, skirts
must be worn no shorter than 2 inches above the
knee.
The old skirt was grandfathered in for this year

Tech Tips
by Adrienne DeBoucher, Ed. Tech. Coordinator
Setting Up Email for Kids:
11 Essential Things to Teach Them First ...
Here at ISPS, we start teaching students about email safety and etiquette in the latter part of grade 2 and more intensely
when they get their first school Gmail accounts in grade 3. This has become a "rite of passage" and the last few years have
proven that there are less and less "mistakes' from them in using email. Cyber-safety and Digital Citizenship are taught at all
grade levels in elementary school. The school accounts are "locked-down" for safety while they are learning; they can only
send and receive email from fellow students and teachers.
However, upon leaving ISPS, they often want to keep in touch with
their friends. That, then, begins a family discussion and decision
about whether to let them have their own personal accounts.
This blog post by Liz at Cool Mom Tech brings up excellent points.
Below are a few examples. (For full article click here or on title
above.)
1. “All your email will be forwarded to me”
First and foremost, I set up a forwarding option so every single email
my daughter receives hits my inbox too. I tell her to inform her
friends that I see all of the emails she gets from them — no sneaking, full transparency.
While this isn’t a great plan for a teenager, for a fourth or fifth grader I think it’s totally appropriate. And without this plan, I wouldn’t
have learned so many of these watch-outs in the first place so that I
could help correct them.
5. “Emailing is not texting”
This may also sound like a duh, but one of my daughter’s friends wrote to the group about 8 times in 20 minutes asking, “is
anyone there? Are you getting this? Is this working? I don’t think my email is working”
I suggested my daughter write back and explain that she is not online all the time, nor is she checking email all the time, and
sometimes that means waiting for a response. Our poor children of the Immediate Gratification Generation! Waiting can be
so hard.

High School Biology
Matura Trip
On May 19th and 20th and June 2nd
and 3rd , students of the Biology class,
embarked on the second of two trips to
Matura, a small village, located on the
North East coast of Trinidad. The first of
these two trips occurred in March when
students were involved in a Beach
clean- up. This was not just a regular
beach clean- up, but one that facilitates
the successful nesting of the Leatherback turtle during nesting season. Matura supports the second largest nesting
assemblage of Leatherback sea turtles
in the Republic and is one of the five
most valuable nesting beaches on
earth, for critically endangered Leatherbacks.
On the second trip, the students became conservationists for a night and
learned about the dedication of a conservation groups called Nature Seekers.
Nature seekers is a non- profitable community based organization, established
in 1990 for the protection and conservation of the endangered leatherback
turtle in Matura. They act as an approved tour guide agency to facilitate
the viewing and the bonding of the marine turtles and visitors to prevent harassment and disturbance to the endangered marine reptiles. Over the last 10
years the Nature Seekers have helped
reduce the slaughtering of egg baring
leather back turtles from 30% or more a
year to 0%.Their conservation program
has received 7 national awards.
The students patrolled the beaches,
tagging and measuring turtles, collecting data and although an exhausting
endeavor, it was also exhilarating as the
students learned about the commitment of Nature Seekers. Unfortunately,
the enormous amount of seaweed
caused the turtles to have difficulty with
the egg laying process and also for the
hatchlings as they attempted to come
out of their nests. Students also got the
opportunity to do some kayaking and
hiked to Mermaid Basin.

Middle School
Grand Riviere Trip
By: Jan-Thais Chinapoo
When you’re in middle school, you
start becoming more and more responsible, and because of that we are also
given chances to prove it. The one thing
we 7th graders were the most excited
about was our first overnight trip to
Grande Riviere. Everyone was enthusiastic about it and couldn't wait for it to
happen! Finally the day of our trip arrived. This article is about my Grande
Riviere experience.
On the first morning I was all ready to
go. I had packed the previous night and
had woken up early to leave and get to
school on time. Of course I was nervous
leaving home but also excited for this
experience. At school of course I was
the first one there but eventually everyone arrived one by one. In no time I was
on the bus leaving school, heading to
our first stop!
The bus ride felt like a really long time
but I was rewarded when we stopped
for a short break to buy doubles, for
breakfast. After that, we drove for at
least one and a half hours to Matura to
hear a briefing about the leatherbacks
turtles. That only lasted about forty
minutes, however I received quite a bit
of information from it and so did everyone else. At the end we took a group
picture, then hurried to the gift shop to
buy a quick souvenir (a bracelet). It was
then time to jump back on the bus. The
ride lasts another few hours, but I slept
through most of it!
Finally...we arrived! We were separated into boys and girls and went to our
separate hotels. It took some time until
our room was ready, but eventually we
got to go in and get ready to meet with
our tour guide for a walk and begin our
water testing.
When we met up with the boys we
split into two mixed groups: one walked
through the town while the other went
to the beach. I was in the beach group
and the tour guide told us about erosion
prepare to go onto the beach to see the
turtles. I could not wait! It was an amazingly memorable experience as we
watched turtles come ashore, we
watched some lay their eggs and best of
all, we saw hatchlings.
We each helped carry them to the
water to prevent anything from happening to them and as we listened to the
tour guide, he explained to us about
nesting turtles and how they lays eggs.
It was great. I will never forget that first
experience seeing the turtles on the
shore!
and what it does to the turtle’s eggs and
also showed us things like seeds washed
ashore, along with a little background of
the town.
It was soon time to do our testing but
that only took us about 30 minutes so
we spent the rest of our time taking in
the beautiful scenery. We eventually got
to walk through the town and I admired
the entire community.
When we got back to our hotels we
had some free time before we had to
The next day began with an hour long
hike after breakfast! We broke into
three groups and group by group started the trail. My group was first so we
went slowly as it wasn't very easy.
We were still able to spend some time
admiring the scenery; we listened for
wild birds and looked out for snakes. It
was really fun to see all those things up
close. When we finally got to the waterfall we started water testing immediately, and one by one the other two groups
came and soon everyone was there. The
highlight of the day came when everyone headed down to the waterfall’s
main pool.
One by one every group came in and
we swam around and explored the river.
Continued on Page 11

VOLUME 23, ISSUE 35
I swam under the waterfall and
even caught a crayfish. Unfortunately, after about forty minutes it
was time for us to hike back.
That evening our final assignment
was to interview some of the residents, so we split up into groups of
three and visited the main Grande
Riviere community.
My group was lucky to get a
friendly and knowledgeable family,
however despite our great detailed
answers my group went in first and
came out last! Our final activity
after we showered and got ready
for bed, was to work a little on our
reflection packets as a group with
my roommates.
I could not believe it...the long
awaited trip had come to an end!
Bye, Bye Grande Riviere. There was
one more adventure in store however...The bus ride back felt much
longer than on the way up but maybe because this time I was awake.
We stopped at a beach for lunch for
about 30 minutes and got back on
the bus to head back to school.
Halfway there, however, our bus
broke down and we had to wait a
while for another to come! I could
not believe it! This delayed our return to school but we eventually
made it!
Grand Riviere was an experience I
won't forget and neither will the
rest of us. We learnt so much in only 3 days, more than I thought humanly possible.
We were able to get to experience
this because of how lucky we are to
be a part of this amazing school environment. I personally thought that
it was mind blowing, every part of
it. In the end this has helped me and
my classmates grow so much, I look
forward to more trips like this.
Until next week!

ISPS Hummingbird
Ambassadors
Several HS students visited Yerette —
Home of the Hummingbird in Maracas Valley
last week with Mrs. Sharpe and Mrs. Clarke.
The group comprised students from the Geography, and
Environmental Science classes as well as some members
from the Environmental Club.
The students engaged in an interactive session and
learnt many interesting facts about this mysterious,
national bird. They explored the quaint garden of the host
which was filled with many of the 14 different species of
hummingbirds found in this lush, tranquil, mountainous
environment of the Northern Range. They have
committed to becoming ‘hummingbird ambassadors’ and
plan on creating a hummingbird sanctuary on the school’s
campus in the new academic year.

ISPS Library takes reading to the court
The library has posted a suggested
“summer” reading list for students in
Kindergarten through Grade 12 on the
library website, which is located on the
school website. The lists are under resources. Studies show that students
who engage in summer reading come
back to school at least four months
ahead of their peers. It is important for
students to have a choice in what they
want to read. Students should also be
encouraged to explore other book lists.
The summer holiday is the perfect time
for students to discover new authors
and new genres.
