2024 Carnival of Cultures World Tour

We celebrated some of the many beautifully diverse cultures in our City School community with our annual Carnival of Cultures. The children had their ‘passports' ready to be stamped as they took a trip around the world; they visited the USA, UK, Netherlands, Thailand, Taiwan, Italy, Iran, Canada, India, and Nepal, to learn about their cultures and arts through hands-on activities.

Project Learning Journey Y3: Roz the AQI Robot

Under the umbrella research topic 'dialogues between nature and technology', our Year 3 children embarked on their Project journey last year, which led them to become robotic designers and engineers. The children were first invited to explore how technology can help us engage with nature - using digital cameras and stereoscopes to explore the natural world around them - and they began to ask questions and exchange ideas about how we define nature and technology and their relationship: ‘Nature is wonderful and we can learn from it!’ ‘If nature could communicate to humans, what would it say?’ ‘How can technology help nature?’

‘Nothing without Joy.’ These words from Loris Malaguzzi are the heartbeat of teaching and learning at ELC International Schools. We believe that high quality learning is a joyful collective journey and helps cultivate the dispositions, capabilities, and aspirations of children for them to unlock their full potential and become impactful global citizens.
