This week, the girls and Madina spent some time reflecting together on the theme of excellence — what it means to each of us and how we can show it every day, both at school and beyond.

We’ll be doing another session soon with some of the other girls, as Talia and Meri were really disappointed not to be able to take part in this week’s video…

The Excellence Award this week goes to our dear Maia 🎉. At first, she didn’t want to take part in the video, but then she showed wonderful initiative — she went to her Spanish-speaking friend to have the questions translated, prepared her answer in English, and practiced with great determination.

I was so happy to see her take part that… I completely forgot to hit “record”! 😅

Well done, Maia! Your effort and perseverance are truly admirable — keep it up, it will surely pay off
