In our House Meeting this Wednesday, we discussed our Third Wellbeing Pillar: Building Positive Friendships.

Being an international community, we also discussed the importance of developing friendships with people from other natioanlities and cultures.

We started off the session by answering the following questions:

• How does the boarding house support and encourage international friendships?
• What advice would you give future students coming into an international school environment?
• Can you think of some examples of famous international friendships?
• Self-Reflection – Do you embrace the international community, or do you prefer the convenience of building friendships within your own culture and language?

Additionally, each of us wrote down three adjectives that we felt describe a good friend.

The Boys, here to eat cookies and answer questions.

“I think he means SOCIALISING”

The adjectives our house felt were the most important characteristics of a good friend.
