The British School of Monaco

A huge congratulations to our House Captains of Plouhinec House, who have been crowned winners this half term 🏆
They have shown outstanding leadership, teamwork, and commitment throughout the term, setting a fantastic example for their peers and contributing positively to school life.
We are incredibly proud of their achievements and the spirit they have shown in representing their house. Well done, Plouhinec!

Last Tuesday, the school organised a wonderful Reading Buddies session 📚
Our secondary pupils visited our nursery and reception classes to share the joy of reading. The older children took great pride in reading stories aloud, while the younger ones listened carefully and engaged with enthusiasm.
These special moments create a warm sense of community across the school, helping to build confidence, nurture a love of books, and develop important listening skills.
We are so proud of all our pupils for the kindness, responsibility, and enthusiasm they showed throughout the session. ✨

Year 7 proudly put their laboratory skills into practice by creating their own indicator and using it to investigate the pH of different chemicals. In a fun and engaging experiment, they discovered that their indicator was made from an unexpected natural ingredient — red cabbage.
This hands-on lesson gave students the opportunity to explore scientific concepts through practical investigation, while developing confidence, curiosity, and essential lab skills.

Our Year 5 students enjoyed their first visit to the Secondary school during a wonderful taster day filled with exciting learning experiences. Supported by three Year 7 students, they first explored chemical changes and then took part in activities focused on mobility ramps, making the day both engaging and inspiring.
This special visit gave Year 5 a valuable opportunity to experience Secondary learning in a supportive environment, while also building confidence, curiosity, and connections with older students.

We are delighted to announce that Half Day Nursery places are now available for children joining The British School of Monaco in September 2026.

At The British School of Monaco, children enjoy a stimulating environment where curiosity, confidence and a love of learning flourish from the very start. The school offers big bright classrooms with just 16 students with plenty of outside space to play around.

In their science lesson, Year 5 explored how substances can change when mixed together through a series of engaging practical activities. The children observed colour changes, heat, extreme cold, fluorescence, and even the process of making biodegradable plastic from cactus leaf juice. They also worked with conductive dough, using it to build circuits and adding coloured lights to complete them.
Alongside these exciting experiments, they learned how to work safely and responsibly during practical science activities. The lesson offered a valuable opportunity to develop scientific curiosity, observation skills, and confidence through hands-on learning.

Our Secondary students take part in sailing lessons at the Yacht Club de Monaco, where they develop confidence, teamwork, discipline, and resilience in an inspiring setting. Each session on the water encourages them to challenge themselves, support one another, and grow beyond the classroom.
At British School, we believe meaningful education also comes through real experiences that help students become confident, curious, and capable young individuals. We are proud to see them learning and thriving through this wonderful programme.

Year 9 History students are doing source analysis to answer the question: “Why did the Gallipoli Campaign fail?” As part of their WW1 unit, they are carefully examining different historical sources, comparing viewpoints, and building their own arguments — just like real historians.
This is a great example of how we develop critical thinking and independent research skills in our History lessons at the British School of Monaco.
