A Welcome Message
From Our head of school- Ms. narmien deeb
Dear Families,
I am thrilled to welcome you to GEMS International School Somabay (GISS)—a place where learning is hands-on, meaningful, and designed to spark a love of discovery that lasts a lifetime. At GISS, we believe education should do more than teach facts—it should ignite curiosity, empower action, and help every child find their passion and use it to create their future in a socially responsible way.
Our incredible location on the Red Sea turns the world into our classroom. Imagine students exploring coral reefs while studying marine biology, designing sustainable aquaculture systems to protect the environment, or using solar energy to power real projects. Learning at GISS is filled with adventure, creativity, and real-world connections. Whether it’s launching a student-led business, designing AI-driven solutions, or using storytelling to drive social change, we make sure every child is engaged in deep, project-based learning that connects their passions to real action.
