Opportunity & Success on a Global Stage
The King’s Group vision is to create a global community of pupils and staff; broadening horizons, fostering understanding and raising aspirations by connecting our academies with other schools across the world.
At King’s Academy Gomer, we believe that an internationally minded curriculum builds cultural understanding, improves communication skills, and promotes knowledge and awareness of the wider world. We use opportunities within our curriculum, such as our daily assemblies, MFL and cross-curricular teaching, in addition to enrichment activities such as International Day and overseas partnership projects to explore people and places beyond the limitations of their surroundings.
As we start a journey to be accredited by working with the British Council, please see us ‘travel’here on our own learning journey…
Coming soon: International Day 1 – Tuesday 15 October 2024.
Brenball
Last week, our Swiss teacher trainees finished their three-week placement. On Friday, to mark their final day, they taught us an amazing Swiss/German game called Brennball (Burnball)—and we had a fantastic time. It is safe to say the competition was heating up as we dodged, ran, and scored our way through the game. It is not every day you learn a new game from across the globe, but with thanks to our Swiss friends, we have got a whole new way to have fun and keep fit in PE! Danke schön, Swiss students! See you next time!
