Week 1
Week 1 is officially in the books, and what a kickoff to this incredible journey! A double rainbow stretched across the sky today symbolizing good luck, positive change, and new beginnings. This week we joined new teaching staff orientation and soon after met the entire faculty, who welcomed us with open arms and genuine warmth. The week was a vibrant blend of culture, tradition, policies, procedures, safety briefings, curriculum overviews, and the joyful return of hundreds of educators from around the globe after their summer break. The energy was electric, the enthusiasm contagious, and the welcome filled with kindness, laughter, and countless smiles. Here's to an amazing year ahead; we did it!
