The school was founded in 2002 and in its first year of operation the on-roll numbers were a modest population of only 50 students now nearing 700+ students. However, these are exciting times as we continue to grow and emerge as the thriving leading provider of education in the region. Our new state of the art building has a capacity of up to 1200 students.

The school is located outside the boundaries of Hay Al Sharooq (HAS), the current housing complex for OLNG (Oman LNG) staff. The HAS complex was built in 2002 and contains 130 purpose-built villas with a large recreation club with two swimming pools, a multipurpose sports hall, a park, a small commercial Centre, clinic, mosque, a dedicated training center for OLNG employees and several maintained offices. The complex is located between the OLNG Qalhat plant and the city of Sur, a 15 minutes’ drive from the town center.

Hay Al-Sharooq International School is an independent educational LLC, fully owned by Oman Development Foundation (ODF). HASIS was founded in 2002 in a small facility in the OLNG compound to provide an education to the young children of locals and expatriates working for OLNG. At this location, the School grew from just fifty to over seven hundred children and in time provided an education for girls and boys from the ages of three to seventeen. In the last few years, it became clear the School required a new, modern facility to take it to the next level, and HASIS opened in its new home external to the OLNG compound in September 2018.
