A unique Primary School, offering a British based, child centred education in the Turks and Caicos Islands
In May, the Grade 1 and 2’s went to visit the Fire Station. The children were shown around the station, they got the chance to sit in the fire engine and were able to spray the water hose! The children also learned about fire safety and what to do if there was a fire at home. The children even got into the local newspaper.

Last week we had a visit from Inspector Duncan, don’t worry the children weren’t in trouble! [Read more…]
Last Wednesday Grade 1 and 2 visited the Our Lady of Divine Providence Catholic Church. The children were very well behaved and asked lots of super questions.
This year grade 2 have been looking at a range of different artists, this week we have been painting pictures in the style of Claude Monet. The children looked at a selection of paintings by Monet and we chose the ‘Lily pond at Giverny’ to practice our painting skills.
In the last few weeks, Grade 2’s have been practicing some yoga poses as part of the school day. The children really enjoy it!
Everyday at school, children face new challenges. Some of us are better at one subject than another, some of us are good at singing and dancing and some of us are good at P.E. Everyone shines in their own way. You might find it interesting to complete this questionnaire online; it can show you what kind of learner you are. It will also tell you whether you are more dominant using your left brain (verbal, mathematical, analytical) or right brain (visual, artistic) or use both equally.
