Our balanced schedule combines morning lessons and afternoon activities across four enriching days, culminating in an exciting Wednesday trip.

Engaging afternoon and evening sessions are complemented by a unique 'house' system, mirroring the camaraderie and friendly competition of UK boarding schools. Additionally, our Wednesday Cultural Trip provides a structured, culturally enriching experience.
