Park of the Imagination (0)

7:33 am by , under

Learning about Physics, Maths and Science may not be an easy thing to do. That is why teachers at St. George's College had to look for interesting, creative and dynamic resources to help their students.

"Parque de la imaginación" in San Miguel, offers a range of activities in which students learn about all these topics mentioned above. We had Year 7 and Year 8 participating in this study visit and they were more than happy to be part of this outdoor activity.

Thanks to "Parque de la imgación"students easily understood how the Earth works and why things happened the way they do in a dynamic and entertaining way. They learnt about gravity, force, energy, nature, and others.

We look forward to visiting this place again!

Year 7 students started to work in pairs in order to create a useful product for their classmates. They had to invent an innovative gadget to be use in class or at school. They came up with very interesting ideas.

At home, they had to prepare adverts and a speech. They use big images, colours and different fonts in their writing. The organization of their adverts was very attractive.

At school, this is what we saw: students became salespersons which was a very interesting experience for them.
Fluency, body language, content, creativeness and accuracy were evaluated.

Casual Day (0)

7:29 am by , under

Casual Day was an excellent opportunity to help people in need.

Patrulla San Jorge collected money inside and outside the school and students brought warming clothes for poor people living in the highlands of Peru. As we all know winter time in aggressive with people in the highlands were the temperature is very low. Adults and children die every year because they have no resources to protect themselves from the cold.

On this day, students left their uniforms at home and attended to school wearing casual clothes to represent that they were here to help giving their clothes to people in need.

This activity taught our students that giving feels better than receiving, that they can make a change helping other, and that spending a little of their time to help is rewarding.


Thank St. George's College!

Sports Day (0)

7:29 am by , under

What an amazing way to encourage students to work as a team!!

Four houses were present in this event: Pegasus, Minotaur, Griffin and Fenix.
The crowds were cheering loudly; the participants were doing their best; parents, relatives, students and friends were supporting their teams; and the school was all decorated for the event.

It was a wonderful party the one we got on that day. We had many competitions having students and families involved. We all shared a great time together. We all felt very attached as a big family.

At the end of the day Fenix house won, but we all felt rewarded with this memorable experience.
