MUN

2019-02-28T16:10:33-04:00

In 2018 we participated in the MUN hosted by the Rotary Clubs of Barbados for the first time. Every year more than 400,000 students from schools around the globe beyond take part in Model United Nations (MUN). The Model UN is an authentic simulation of the UN General Assembly, UN Security Council, or other multilateral body, which introduces students to the world of diplomacy, negotiation, and decision making.  Four of our students spent 6 weeks – every Saturday from 9 – 1 pm – researching, writing and presenting. 23 schools from around Barbados were represented and each “delegate” was assigned a [...]

2017 International Trip to Japan

2019-02-08T18:02:28-04:00

2017 International Trip to Japan This was a rare wonderful opportunity to see the breathtaking natural beauty, witness amazing living history and enjoy the exotic tasty food of the Land of the rising sun, Japan.  Students and parents embarked on a twelve- day history and cultural trip to cities of historic Hiroshima, ancient capital Kyoto, a day in tranquil Nara, neon city of Osaka and the ultra-modern high tech mega city of Tokyo.  They indulged in traditional hotels called ryokans that are surrounded with wonderful gardens and pristine landscapes for relaxing strolls in solitude places such as temples and shrines.

Classroom to Boardroom 2016

2019-02-08T16:36:37-04:00

Classroom to Boardroom (C2B) 2016 Back in October 2016 I sat in a corporate boardroom in awe of the outcomes of a young woman’s leadership and of two people who worked so hard and presented like consummate professionals. The people that filled me with pride were our very own Saskia (DP 2) and Saxon & Nico (DP 1).  Saskia had spent the week leading a team of 30 people (whom in the main she had never met before) to present solutions in response to a very real challenge. The challenge was set by one of the Caribbean's leading companies, Harris Paints. [...]
