Following our Pastoral Programme, tonight we had a nice discussion about being in a community with people from different cultures. We came to the conclusion that we can find a lot of things in common with people even from a completely different continent. We shouldn’t be prejudiced, in the end, we are all differently same. We are valuable human beings who deserve to be treated with kindness and understanding. We were very happy to see the girls getting along and work together as a small group in a big international community.

We also watched a video on nonviolent communication.

Tonight, Jessica made an excellent presentation about how we can read a painting.

1- Have a look: attention

2- Reading artworks through topic or subject: topics

3- What is that about symbolism

4- How would they do that: biographical information.

5- Anyone can do that: emotions & feelings

A few weeks ago, the girls picked names to buy a small present anonymously for another girl from the House. Tonight we exchanged our gifts for Secret Santa. They really enjoyed this moment as they tried to figure out who was their Secret Santa.
