🌸🐣 Program for Person and Value Development – Påskefrokost 🐣🌸
As part of our Program for Person and Value Development (PPV), we held our traditional coffee morning Påskefrokost with parents.
It was a meaningful opportunity for parents to connect, get to know each other, and build a stronger sense of community.
We truly appreciate the continued engagement and support from our parents

Global Money Week 💰💵💲

As part of this year’s Global Money Week, we marked the release of Entrepreneur Day, where our students had the opportunity to present their own creative business proposals.

Throughout the week, the focus has been on building financial awareness from an early age — helping children understand the value of money, the importance of making thoughtful purchasing decisions, and the habit of saving for the future.

By encouraging these skills, we aim to empower students to become confident, responsible, and informed decision-makers in their everyday lives and beyond.

Celebrating Pi Day with creativity and problem-solving! ✅
Students brought their own pies and worked together to estimate their circumference, bringing the concept of π to life. They also sharpened their mental math skills with the 24 Game, where the goal is to combine numbers to make 24.
A delicious way to experience mathematics in action.

Last week, our MYP students proudly presented their Personal Projects — the result of months of hard work, reflection, and perseverance. 🎓✨

Throughout the process, students developed and demonstrated important ATL skills, including research, communication, and self-management, while exploring topics they are truly passionate about. The Personal Project is an important milestone in the MYP, giving students the opportunity to take ownership of their learning and showcase their growth.

A big thank you to our mentors for guiding and supporting students along the way, and to the parents and classmates who came to celebrate and support them during the presentations. Your presence made the day even more special.

We are incredibly proud of all our students and the work they shared!

Last week we celebrated Mother Tongue Week in our PYP classrooms 🌍📚

Throughout the week, students shared stories in their mother tongues, read to classmates, welcomed parents into the classroom, and explored traditions through cooking and cultural activities.

It was a wonderful celebration of the many languages and cultures that make up our school community. Language is more than words — it carries identity, culture, and connection. By celebrating our different mother tongues, we nurture respect, understanding, and open-mindedness in our truly multicultural community.

A big thank you to the families who joined us and helped make the week so special.
