New Zealand

Welcome!

 

In order to provide the opportunity to get immersed in the Anglo-Saxon culture that contributes to the development, not only of English skills, but also of the integral development of students, a relationship has been established with the New Zealand Department of Education.

 

The members of this country have recognized the approach of the school, focused not only on the development of the language, but also on the experience of a culture that is characterized by respect for plurality, the ability to use dialogue as a tool for mediating conflict and for incorporating a view of the world that accepts and includes everyone.

 

This academic and cultural immersion program is offered to ninth grade students, who will have the possibility to live with a local family and go to school for an academic term or for a full semester, validating their school year in Colombia with the academic processes carried out in that country.

We are the only school, nationwide, that has developed an academic immersion process with New Zealand.

We train and evaluate our students on international tests in the English language, all this with the purpose of educating citizens with 21st century skills.

Leonistas in New Zealand

The Internationalization agreement with New Zealand goes further and is complemented by the recognition of culture in classrooms and school spaces.

That is why we invite you to visit the collection of New Zealand´s books that we have in the María Eugenia Villarreal de León Library for consultation by all members of the Leonist Family.

We invite you to know our exchange with Brazil!
