Get to Know the International Club

By S. Costa Franco

What is the international club? 
The International Club is a student-led initiative aiming to enhance the integration of Portuguese as an additional language students into the school community. In this club, both International and Brazilian students from multiple year groups join together to engage in a variety of fun games and activities, which allow laughter to be shared, friendships to be formed, and everyone's lunchtime to be just a little more special. As a school that is consistently expanding its reach towards accepting pupils from a range of backgrounds and nationalities, it is important that the entirety of the school community embrace the linguistic and cultural diversity that is consequentially aggregated to our environment, and initiatives like the International Club do just this. We are proud to have the opportunity to strengthen the connections created between our students, and to further promote values of inclusivity and make our school community even more welcoming to all.
