Faculty Sponsor: Mr. Lane Hunt

Student participation in Model United Nations is a valuable and important component of the AISJ high school experience.

This school year AISJ will send student delegations to MUN conferences in:

  • The Hague, Netherlands THIMUN
  • Beijing, China BEIMUN

AISJ will be sponsoring a The Johannesburg Model United Nations. This conference takes place for one day on campus and for two days at the "The Campus" conference centre in Bryanston. Student delegations from other international schools in Africa and local South African schools will join approximately 100 AISJ students in this very exciting event. This is a THIMUN affiliated conference.

Through JOMUN, every high school student has the opportunity to participate in a world class Model United Nations conference. To participate in JOMUN, students need to see Mr. Hunt during the first days of school.

Participation in MUN conferences require student payments to cover conference fees, travel and other expenses determined by conference organization.

THIMUN 2010
“Good Governance”
AISJ represents Sri Lanka at THIMUN 2010

12 students from AISJ attended the grand daddy of all MUN conferences, The Hague International Model United Nations conference in the Netherlands, last week.  With nearly 4000 students from schools around the globe, this is the largest MUN conference in the world.

Once again, our students made a great impression on other delegations and directors with their thorough preparation and their knowledge of the issues. Andrew Macaulay, a junior but a veteran to THIMUN, was selected as a chair for the Human Rights Committee. Michael Haskell and Victoria Williams, seniors, were also veterans of THIMUN and shared their expertise with the students new to the THIMUN conference.

THIMUN is an intense conference so only experienced MUN students are taken. Fellow seniors Sam Gips, Mathew Vaidyan, Ian Santulli, Shreya Kalra and Sam Selsky accompanied Michael and Victoria. While juniors Julia Pimentel, Trish de Jager, Theji Jayaratne, and Catherine Scholtes rounded out the delegation.

Mr. Musgrove and Mr. Kissack chaperoned the delegation and were extremely impressed by the way the students performed and conducted themselves in and out of the conference.

Well done AISJ THIMUN delegation.
