Note: The following video originally appeared on Hannah's blog Pomelo Seed. Be sure to bookmark it for amazing photos, videos and commentary as Hannah makes her way around the world! Heavy downpours during our recent weXplore outing to the Chewonki Foundation in Maine left our students and faculty with soggy socks and drenched hair, so what better way to dry out than a frolic on the beach? Hannah C. shows...

At this time three weeks ago, we were packing up our backpacks or kayaks and beginning an adventure outside of the confounds of the Chewonki Foundation campus in Maine. Judging from the smiles and animated storytelling upon our reunion, I feel confident in saying that everyone learned a lot about themselves and each other during the trip. Our goal for the trip was for the students to engage in a...

In a situation very reminiscent of our Berlin 2011-2012 term, our time in Boston has provided us with easy access via rail to other nearby cosmopolitan cities. Due to this, our students were able to visit both Washington, D.C. and New York City this term and experience each city's unique attractions, delicacies and neighborhoods. Our trip to NYC occurred mid-May, which allowed our students to visit the city in the...

While enrolled at THINK Global School, students are encouraged to be creative during the course of their studies and travels. When the students document these thoughts, we are often delighted with the results. In "Painting to the Beat," 9th grader Sydney M. uses a series of photos to document the creative process she utilized during the development of her Art exam. Our end of year Art exam included listening to...

With our 2012-13 school year sadly drawing towards its end, we can now gleefully reminisce on all that our students and faculty accomplished as they made their way across three continents. Our academic adventure began in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and to commemorate his experiences in the "Paris of the South," Global Studies teacher Nick Martino recently launched an iTunes U course entitled "Understanding the Argentine Identity." Understanding the Argentine Identity...

The following opinion piece was written by Global Studies teacher Nick Martino and originally appeared on his blog Defenders of Ma'at. Why was 9/11 so important in the psyche of Americans, specifically New Yorkers?   We don’t get attacked. We attack others. We rarely lose. Wars aren’t fought on our home turf. We don’t live in fear.   Former Secretary General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, stated, “Freedom from...

Whether getting lost on the subway or walking for miles by foot, I always found myself encountering new and fascinating sights while in New York City. Home to the yellow taxi cab and giant slices of pizza, NYC is constantly glowing and humming even into the wee hours of the morning. Among NYC's bright lights are its many advertisements, and Times Square feels like a breeding ground for them. I...

My goal for our visit to the USS Massachusetts was to use it as a weXplore trip that would benefit all TGS students. Students in Mr. Cailey's IB History class, for instance, have been studying war strategies used in World War II, so getting a chance to spend the night aboard a battleship that was involved in the Allied Island Hopping Campaign would be a perfect opportunity to further their...

As I write this, I'm waiting for our students to return from their weXplore, a five-day excursion that takes students beyond their host city for immersive cultural experiences. For the past two months, we as a school have called Maun, Botswana, our home. It's a small town on the edge of the Okavango Delta and, for many travelers, a doorway into Africa. But Maun is only one perspective, and it...

There's something profound about witnessing the Nxai Pan migration in person. Thousands of zebras moving together across vast landscapes, accompanied by wildebeest, all drawn forward by instinct, survival, and shared momentum. For our team at THINK Global School, this wasn't just a spectacular wildlife viewing. It became a profound lesson in how we approach education. A Different Kind of Classroom Botswana is a place that invites attention. From the dusty...

Picture this: Across the vast landscapes of Botswana, elephant families gather at watering holes after months of separate journeys. Some have traveled familiar paths, while others arrive for the first time, tentative but curious. In these moments of convergence, something beautiful happens. Individual stories merge into collective wisdom, creating bonds that will sustain them through the seasons ahead. This month, we find ourselves in a remarkably similar moment as we...

Kali, who joined TGS from Kenya in 2023, has had incredible experiences alongside her classmates across seven (soon to be eight 🇮🇹) countries over the last two years. From scuba diving in Australia to experiencing Tet in Vietnam, Kali has seen the world, learned from its inhabitants, and gained perspectives that we hope will inform her for years to come. To close out her TGS career, Kali is putting together...

Tattooing is the most misunderstood art form in Japan today. Looked down upon for centuries and rarely discussed in social circles, people with tattoos are outcasts in this country, banned from most public spaces such as beaches, bathhouses, and even gyms. Tattoos have an extensive history in Japan, and to truly understand the stigma behind them it is essential to be aware of their significance. The first records of tattoos...

Greetings TGS, Long time reader, first time blogger here. Some of you may have noticed that I can be a little patriotic... My friends in Abu Dhabi used to joke that New Zealand has "small country" syndrome because it is always determined to be the best. I think like the Canadians, we are determined not to be seen as the same as our more populated neighbours. With that in mind...
