Happy New Year

Wednesday, January 9, 2019 - 16:33 By Rachel Heimeier

I always find it challenging to get back into work and study mode after the festive season. But meeting with our teachers and staff today, I feel energised and ready for the spring term ahead.  The new year brings a world of fresh possibilities and opportunities. 

So welcome 2019, and to all staff and students, a warm welcome return to studies at IEGS.

We spent a week with European youth just like us, debating important issues that affect the EU and us everyday. Over the course of a week, we learned how to draft legislation, reach consensus on difficult issues, how to debate, how to speak in public and how to understand the other side of an argument despite feeling very strongly for your side.
