| Where
shall we put the ISSE? |
· Summer of 2001:
The ISSE moved again, to
what is hoped to be a more permanent
resting place. This time the move was
slightly more dramatic, all the way to
the other side of the Kennedylaan. The
new premises have much that the previous
ones could not offer, with more
classrooms, better sports facilities and
a larger library. It only remains to be
seen: where shall we put the ISSE next?
· Summer of 1999:
Rumours were already
flying before the Class of '99 graduated
about the problems the ISSE was having in
accommodating the growing numbers of
students. It very quickly became clear
that the new building (on the
Henegouwenlaan) to which the ISSE had
moved only two years previously was too
small. The search was on for another new
site.
· Summer of 1997:
Many of us remember with
light-hearted mockery the old ISSE
building on the Jerusalemlaan. These
premises died a slow and painful death as
the school's size expanded and the "cardboard
box" - as is was fondly known -
could no longer feasibly be maintained.
The students left, the bulldozers
arrived, and the ISSE made way for a
grassy wetland. The plans to build
retirement bungalows never seemed to come
to much, and nature has retained a firm
hold on the patch of land ever since.
