Janet Lewis and José Carlos Rosell went to

the annual conference of the LAHC which

took place in Bogotá, Colombia from 15th

to 21st April. Ariana Valdivia and Alonso

Saldarriaga also attended.. The theme of

the conference was “Putting the student at

the centre”. They enjoyed listening to four

world famous speakers, Doug Fisher,

Rhonda Bondie, Dr. Nikki Woodson and

Barb Oakley, plus breakout sessions from

Patrick Mussolini and Daniel Bonilla. Apart

from this, they also took part in various

workshops and discussion forums. Ariana

and Alonso worked with other students

from LAHC schools preparing a project on

how to promote social justice. It was a very

valuable experience and they hope to share

new knowledge and ideas with our school

community.

This year we have six students signed up to take the

IB Diploma course. We are proud of the results that

our students have received in the Cambridge

Language Exams in English. We are also very

pleased with the French results our students have

obtained with Allianza Francesa. On 27th April,

Alianza Francesa gave prizes to three of our

students for their excellent results in the DELF

exams which they took last year. They were María

Alejandra Ruiz, Augusta Pérez and Christopher

Garayar. Congratulations!

During the week of 16th April all the students of Euroamerican College took part in Earth

Week activities which were organized by Ms. Dolly Parra and the ESD Committee. On

Monday students had to think about what they would do to help the planet. Tuesday was an

energy free day where nobody could use electric devices whilst on Wednesday we reflected

on how our overuse of plastic is affecting the environment. On Thursday the students worked

with the ESD doorways and on Friday the whole school community enjoyed eating a healthy

picnic together.

On Tuesday 24th April, Euroamerican College was host for the Grade 4 ADECOPA Festival with

almost 500 students taking part. Many thanks to our Head of PE, Ruben Cornejo and his

team for organizing this event.

Continuing with sports activities, towards the end of term, the PE department organized House

swimming galas from Nursery to Grade 12. Both participants and spectators enjoyed this event.

From 26th to 28th April, ten Secondary School students took part in a leadership

workshop with Ben Walden from Contender Charlie. Please look at

www.contendercharlie.com for more information on the work which this company

provides not only for students, but for leaders, head teachers and teachers.

It is important to note that specialist trainers have been hired, who are in charge of the

training of the selected students with a view to sporting events in different events, mainly

those organized by ADECOPA. This contract is made thanks to the funds raised in the 2017

Ecological Festival.

On Friday 4th May, the Early Years and

Primary section had their Student Led

Conference Day. For the first time, this

involved not only the tutors but also the

specialist teachers. On the same day,

the 11th grade students, through the

CAS programme, delivered the school

supplies to the children of San Lorenzo

School, located in Manchay. We thank

all the families who collaborated so

that this campaign could be carried out

successfully.

The French artist, Jibé has

painted a mural over the

water treatment plant

which deals abstractly with

the theme of water

treatment. In the middle,

the circle represents the

pond. On each side the

water passes through a

multitude of colorful toys

representing the plants

that clean the water. In the

extremities the mural ends

with a point because the

water goes on its way

towards a new use.

The 12th grade students also started a

new CAS project. They have programmed

and started the English classes for the

primary students of Colegio Virgen de

Chapi.
