It is with great pleasure that I congratulate Laerskool Fairland School on being selected as a “2010 Inviting School Award” recipient by the International Alliance for Invitational Education! This honor has been given based on the implementation of Invitational Education philosophy in your school and validated through a school visit, recommendation, the Inviting School Survey and your submission of your school portfolio. The People, Places, Programs, Policies and Processes all provide positive messages and intentions that make your school a most inviting place for effective teaching and learning.

Everyone associated with Laerskool Fairland School should be proud of the fact that your school has now joined an elite list of schools and districts around the world that prove every day that invitational practices make a positive difference in the lives of our children.

Official recognition of this honor will be at the 2010 World Conference in Columbus, Ohio, September 29 – October 2, and is something your school community should take great pride in. Your attendance and personal acceptance of this award exemplifies your commitment to invitational theory and practice.

On behalf of everyone affiliated with the International Alliance for Invitational Education, congratulations! Your hard work and dedication is a tribute in itself. This recognition is hoped to be a springboard of further implementation of the IE philosophy and of a growing relationship with the Alliance.

Best wishes,
Dave Chapman
