As the new academic year begins at Northbridge International School Cambodia (NISC), we’re excited to welcome back our returning students and extend a heartfelt greeting to all new families joining our vibrant international school community.

Discover the NISC House System: Building Belonging and School Spirit

One of the most cherished traditions at NISC is our school house system, a cornerstone of student life that fosters connection, collaboration, and pride across all grade levels. Every student and staff member belongs to one of four dynamic houses:

  1.  Cobras

  2. Ibis

  3. Stingrays

  4. Elephants

These houses are more than just teams—they are inclusive communities that promote friendshipteamwork, and cross-cultural understanding.

House Competitions and Events: Leadership, Learning, and Fun

Throughout the school year, our houses engage in a variety of exciting events and competitions, including:

  1. Athletics and sports days

  2. Academic challenges

  3. Creative arts showcases

  4. Community service projects

These activities help students develop leadership skills, build resilience, and experience the joy of working together toward shared goals.

Find Your Voice, Your Team, Your Place at NISC

Whether you're a quick-thinking Cobra, a graceful Ibis, a powerful Elephant, or a swift Stingray, you play a vital role in what makes NISC unique. Our house system ensures that every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to thrive.

Looking Ahead: House Events and Celebrations

Stay tuned for upcoming house eventsfestivals, and friendly competitions that will culminate in the crowning of the winning house in July 2026. It’s going to be a year full of learning, laughter, and unforgettable memories.

Let’s make this school year extraordinary—by supporting one another, celebrating our differences, and growing together as one NISC family.
