It has been a very productive first year and we are very thankful to all our parents and community for their support, especially in the first few years where facilities are still developing and the school is still expanding. 

We started in August 2013 with 39 students and knew the first year would be a challenge. We had a fantastic first year with many school events and field trips and our staff achieved greatly with our student body.

Both our grade 1 classes have waiting lists. Our grade 2 has a waiting list. Grade 3, 5 and 6 are almost full with grade 4 being the class with most open places. However if last year was anything to go by, then that should also fill up during the course of the year.

Our second year as a school is rapidly approaching and we hope it will be as fulfilling and exciting as the first one.  

We have now raised 15842NOK, almost 2000 euros, for the first Chrome the Dome event ever. Deposits can still be made for one more week.

It was a great success and all credit to everyone who participated. The date for next year's event is set for 6th June 2015. Preparations have not started yet, however I strongly believe that since a small group of like-minded individuals managed to raise so much in a short period of time, imagine what next year will bring. 

To those I will not see again before Autumn - have a lovely summer vacation! May the wind be on your back and the road rise up to meet you. 

The talent show was a great success. On the day we had 28 performances including dance, martial arts such as Capoeira, singing and more. All the children did an excellent job on the day and we all had a great time. There were 4 judges taking notes and I will consult with the judges to decide an overall winner on the day. That is going to be very difficult as there was such engagement and effort from all students. Congratulations!!

On a final note, these pictures are courtesy of a parent of a grade 1 student. Her name is Rita Catarino de Almeida e Silva. We are extremely grateful for her continued engagement and energy in the school.
