A Cup of Coffee and Tea

On February 14 and 15, the Bach Sports Day took place. The two days were filled with laughter, attitude, and excitement, the consequence of the sense of belonging that has grown throughout multiple generations. In seven different activities, our 4 houses showed commitment and passion with the ultimate goal of winning. 

Just like any other sports day, the day is filled with memories that are accompanied by a reflection of the relevance of this activity in our school community. The event has become a point of connection to the growth of each student as an individual because the activities are very similar to prior years, yet the students participating are not the same; acknowledging how each individual has grown, in a way they are becoming a step closer to the citizens they aim to be. 

The results were very close yet the scoring was as follows:

The school, being a Round Square member, allows students the opportunity to go on an exchange. This year more than 30 grade nine students will embark on this cultural journey, visiting countries like India, Australia, Germany, South Africa, Jordan, Kenia, and the USA. Currently, we have 3 exchange students on our campus and many more will soon join us. 

On another note, this year Colombia will be hosting the Round Square International Conference, and the Anglo helping with the organization. This is something to look forward to as at the beginning of the next academic year, people from all over the world will be visiting us to get a glimpse of our nation's culture.

In other MUN-related news, six students represented the Anglo in the Abraham Lincoln model and left an amazing image of our school. We extend a huge congratulations for their amazing performance and highlight their achievements, as well as their efforts. Congratulations to:

• Mariana Gomez

• Elisa Morales

• Felipe Turriago

• Nicolas Guevara

• Cristina Hoyos

• Rafaela Salazar

On the 15th of February, nine grade students had their first visit to a University. During the day, they got a glimpse of university life in La Sabana and had the opportunity to explore different career options. From watching a mock trial to seeing the biggest simulated hospital in Latin America, they had an enriching experience. 

On the 1st of March, 10th-grade students will be visiting Javeriana University getting the opportunity to experience life on campus.

The much-awaited football match between 11th-grade students and teachers took place on the sixth of February. The teachers took the win after a very tight scoring, winning the game after going to penalties. The students were able to show their support to their peers during lunchtime.

The first week of February tenth grade students had to choose the logos for their jackets. A very exciting yet melancholic process, that manages to capture a glimpse of their personality and school experience in a clothing item. In just a few months they will be receiving the awaited 11th grade jacket.

On the 13th of February, the “sociales” teachers organize a workshop regarding global citizenship. Hosted in the William Shakespear, the school welcomed 4 other educational institutions, proving a perfect opportunity for collaborative learning. 

During the second week of February, five athletic teams traveled to Cali to compete at “We Are One Games” in Colegio Colombo Britanico. We extend a huge recognition to all the participants, their effort and commitment were not in vain, and they succeeded in bringing the overall win home.
