WSC – Beijing

Today we went to the Great Wall of China which was luckily not crowded so we could really enjoy the views. Our trip included a ride with a chairlift to the top of the hill where the wall is located, walking up and down very steep stairs and lastly going on an adventurous ride down a slide. Later, we drove to the Summer Palace which is a beautiful landscape collection of pavilions, temples and gardens. We were impressed by the amazing architecture and the beauty of the whole area. Tomorrow, we will spend the day getting ready for the competition by debating and writing essays.

Year 8 Musicals – Mamma Mia & Grease

Grade 8 students had their drama performances Mamma Mia! and Grease on the 5th and 7th June respectively. They showed a lot of commitment and cooperation as well as dedication, not only for acting but for scenography and character development. We are really proud of them for taking on such a monumental task. Singing and acting in a musical demands courage and a lot of risk taking. Congratulations to both grades, 8M and 8I for their courage and effort. Well done.
