“¿Por qué taller?

We are very proud to announce that this morning we had our Trinity Awards Ceremony for our Form VI students from this year and the previous one.

Our students have been working very hard since the beginning of their school career and as a result were able to successfully take the Trinity Examination…with outstanding results!

In Form V, they took the Graded Examination in Spoken English which test candidates' ability in listening and speaking. They are one-to-one oral examinations with a Trinity examiner.

In Form VI, they took the Trinity Integrated Skills in English (ISE) exam, which assess all four language skills: Speaking, Writing, Listening and Reading – interacting with each other as they do in the real world.

We would like to congratulate all our students for their great effort and achievement and know that there is more to come!

International collaborative and exchange program with India

We are very proud to announce that our school is partning with “Maria’s Public School” in Guwahati, Assam, India concerning International collaborative and exchange projects.

Form III Blue has already started learning about India, writing letters and receiving information from the twin Form III class in India and other classes will also participate in the project shortly.

We believe that this collaborative project will enable students to reflect about the importance of communication and of building peaceful bonds between different cultures in our planet.

Under the "International Year of Water Cooperation" we commemorate "World Water Day" with two projects: one project in which children reflected and shared raindrops: "Sharing our drop" and a play: "We are all water." Droplet visited different classes reflected  on the importance of protecting water.
