Our recent CM2 fall term, which took place between October and December in Dubai, was a memorable one for students as it coincided with Expo 2020. The Expo is the oldest and largest international event on the planet, and Expo 2020 is expected to draw a projected 25 million tourists from 190 countries. The purpose of Expo 2020 is to serve as a "global gathering to share ideas, showcase innovation,...

¡Saludos desde México! This fall, CM1 became the first TGS cohort to visit Mexico for a term. The decision to visit Mexico was strategic given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Visas were readily available to most of our students, meaning fewer students would need to conduct the term remotely. Additionally, the country's moderate climate meant that our students could routinely spend time learning and socializing outdoors.  The pleasant climate, coupled with...

With the first term of the 2021-22 school year officially in the books, we asked our CM1 students to share their thoughts regarding their time in Botswana. You can find their reflections below and a comprehensive overview of our Botswana term here. Rite of Passage "So many things happened here in Botswana, and so many more things were learned from the people and the places around us. Personally, I was...

I learned a lot during my first term at TGS, especially how to communicate effectively with the limited resources you have. The module I participated in exposed me to many things, whether it be learning or bonding with people. Most importantly, this term reinforced the fact that my decision to come to TGS was the right one. -Class of 2023 Student Aarushi A. As a traveling high school, we are...

So many things happened here in Botswana, and so many more things were learned from the people and the places around us. Personally, I was more inclined towards the biodiversity and nature aspect of the term, especially the Rite of Passage and the weXplore, but everything was absolutely amazing! -Class of 2023 Student Camille A. A new school year is always an exciting affair, but the start of our 2021-22...

1. Hi Maxim. It's been two years now since you graduated from THINK Global School. What have you been up to in that time?  Since graduating from TGS, I have been attending the University of Toronto studying mineral (mining) engineering. I know you might be asking why, out of all engineering, I chose mineral engineering? It's because I want to throw myself into the space mining industry. I figured it...

Another school year has concluded at THINK Global School, and it is safe to say this was truly a year unlike any other. Like many schools worldwide, we opted to switch from in-person learning to remote learning for all four terms. While this was a difficult decision to make, the transition was eased by our students' work already being planned, tracked, and assessed via our project-based learning platform, Headrush. Digital...

Another school year is coming to a close at THINK Global School, which means graduation is right around the corner for the Class of 2021. And while their academic experience was different than previous classes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all of our graduates continually demonstrated the characteristics we value so much as a community: perseverance, continual improvement, a thirst for knowledge, and the practicing of environmentalism, to name a...

Term 3 (our winter term) is officially in the books here at THINK Global School. Although our students could not travel due to the ongoing pandemic, they again impressed us through their creative approaches to project work and unyielding community spirit. This post sheds light on some of our CM1 cohort's highlights (more on what cohorts mean here), including a look at our favorite outcomes from the Mind and Body...

Let’s start things off with a question: When planning a vacation, do you opt for a trip where every aspect is meticulously planned? For example, do you only feel comfortable when there is a set amount of time for each activity -- an hour here for lunch, two hours here for a modern museum, perhaps an hour for the botanical gardens before arriving at your all-important dinner reservation? Or, on...
