Crow Museum Visit

December 1, 2018 | Media

Toward the end of the fall semester, Form II made their second field study of the year to the Crow Museum of Asian Art in Dallas. They looked at many beautiful works of art, such as the head of a Buddha statue from China and a complete suit of samurai armor from the Edo period in Japan. The students were well prepared for this eastward journey by Fr. Augustine (social studies) and Ms. Williams (English). With Fr. Augustine they are studying Eastern civilizations and religions, including Buddhism and Hinduism. With Ms. Williams they are currently reading a work of literature (written in English) by a Korean author, A Single Shard. The docents and museum were wonderful. And we are proud to say that we impressed them as well by our knowledge, curiosity and excitement! @ Crow Museum of Asian Art

Beware the Ides of Form I

In Form I Social Studies, fifth graders were introduced to the life of Julius Caesar. Three students claimed to be the real Caesar, but only one was telling the truth. The other two were imposters. Using clues from each presentation, the rest of the class had to decide who was authentic.

Clean Water Supplies

Students in Forms VI and VII packed clean water supplies, including water bottles and iodine tablets, along with hygiene products such as soap and hand sanitizer, to be sent to communities around the world where access to clean water is limited.
