I was so happy the other day to hear from my excited son in Secondary that Tenby International School is introducing inter house music, like they have inter house sports to compete for house points. I don’t know exactly how it works, but each house, red, green, blue and yellow, is requested to form a band of musicians and singers and perform a song together and compete against the other houses. I am very pleased about the inter house music, as I have noticed that my children need these sort of activities to stay motivated, as they take practicing more seriously, when they are determined to improve their skills and need to work towards a goal like performing with their friends and competing against other students.
As mentioned in my earlier posts, my children are keen participants in sports and the performing arts, in fact all co-curricular activities where they get to use their creativity and other non-academic skills, therefore I am so grateful that Tenby organises all these kind of activities, because by doing so, it shows how important it is to Tenby to provide an all-round education for our children. And it works well, because my children always seem to have something to look forward to in school and that is really important for them in order to stay interested and motivated on a continuous basis.
Just another example of Tenby’s commitment to providing the best all-round education for our children and how they get it right with a good mixture of academics and co-curricular activities to maintain a healthy balance.
