As I prepare to write a graduation speech, I paused to read the memories shared by our graduates. Many reflect that a sports tournament, a camp, or a field trip was their most meaningful experience.
When learners step outside the traditional classroom, they become curious and engaged. #classof2025

Flight 13 @airasia.bsky.social from BKK to #Denpasar. Less legroom, partially filled plane, #carryononly, a smooth flight that landed early. Immigration in #Bali was quick too! Grateful to be home!

Second last flight #HongKong to #BKK! @cathaypacific.bsky.social on a partially filled flight. Lots of legroom, space, and snacks. Landed into one airport and had 6 hours to transfer, time to #grab to #donmuang, and then to book a #sleepbox for 3 hours. Sleepbox is a great- definite recommendation

Christmas Chemistry- IBDP 1 students taught 10 minute mini-lessons to year 1 and 3 today. Communication and Organizational skills expanded and perfected as they repeated their lesson to 8 different groups in two hours. I am so proud of their efforts #IB #chemistry
