2024-2025 Re-enrolment Campaign
The LCS 2024-2025 re-enrolment campaign will take place soon. You will receive an email next week inviting you to notify us whether you wish to continue your child’s schooling at LCS or not via the Eduka parent portal. This is essential and necessary to update your personal data (addresses, passport, visa…) to allow us to work on the 2024-2025 school structure so that your child will be in the class composition.
The media club live on Twitch AEFEINFO
On Monday, March 18th at noon, the students from the LCS Media Club broadcasted live the show they had prepared on the theme 'News on all fronts.' This broadcast was part of the AEFE Webradio Week, in which 50 schools from around the world are participating. LCS had the honour of opening this week of school radio broadcasts.
On the agenda: local as well as international news! And an interview with the writer and translator Alex Gilly by the CM2 students!
The show has been prepared for several weeks during sessions at the CDI supervised by several teachers from different disciplines. These 11th and 12th-grade students are motivated by the search for information and its transmission to other LCS students. This is their 2nd live broadcast this year, and their ease in mastering this media, which is radio, is pleasing to hear. Every week, they delve into current events and broadcast on the LCS TVs, as well as on their Instagram feed.
Environmental awareness by year 7 students
As part of the program, 5th-grade students produced a powerful video on the human impact on marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Available HERE, it underscores the urgency of preserving biodiversity. Guided by their teachers, these young people have explored environmental issues and call for action for a sustainable future.
Thank you to M. Blanc, Biology and Science Teacher in middle school.
UCL (University College London) visit
We would like to thank University College London for visiting us at LCS and taking the time to explain to the students the various aspects of university life at UCL.
New South Wales High Schools Handball Championship 2024
The annual New South Wales Schools Championships are scheduled for Tuesday, May 21st (girls) and Wednesday, May 22nd (boys) at Sydney Olympic Park. LCS is once again assembling a boys' team and aims to gather enough girls for next year's event. Parents of selected players will soon receive an email. Having clinched the championship twice already, LCS hopes to defend its title once more this year.
With the Brisbane 2032 Games looming on the horizon and Australia securing automatic host spots, we anticipate a promising journey for handball in the years to come. We are enthusiastic about the prospects of handball as a participation sport and the elite pathway opportunities it offers to players. The upcoming School Championships serve as a pathway leading to these exciting possibilities.
We are pleased to offer your child a badminton tournament (singles) open to students from CM1 to 3ème (Year 4 to Year 9).
Events at school
George Washington University visit!
Located in Washington, D.C. (USA), the George Washington University (GW) offers undergraduate degrees across 7 schools (art/design, business, engineering, humanities/sciences, international affairs, media/public affairs, public health). GWU goes beyond the typical university experience with an education that is deeply connected to our location in the centre of the U.S. capital city. Whether taking a class at the Smithsonian Institute, learning from a policy expert at the World Bank or attending a lecture by a world leader, our 10,000 undergraduates have access to the organisations and individuals who shape the future. Our students put their knowledge into action through research, internships, and community service, three hallmarks of a GW education.. gwu.edu
Don't miss this opportunity as it is rare for American universities to visit. Email Ms Salier if you are interested in attending on Wednesday 27 March @ 7.30-8.30am in D119. All parents & students are welcome.
