MANILA, Philippines - In continuing to deliver quality international education in the country, Esteban School formally renames itself the Australian International School (Australian IS). The announcement coincided with their celebration of a family sports day held last Feb. 26.
The event kicked off with a parade led by the students, together with a square-off between the school’s two houses – Wisdom and Integrity. The two teams battled in a series of sporting events, showcasing their talents, skills, and athleticism. This year, Integrity proved to be mightier emerging as the champion after winning in the various sports challenges.
After a morning of competitive and fun-filled events, the whole community of Australian IS relaxed with a picnic for all students, parents and guests. More than 400 people participated in the family day which fostered camaraderie and goodwill among parents of the students. The students of Australian IS also wowed the crowd with their talents as they performed several special numbers.
Representative from the Australian Embassy Carolyn Atkinson graced the event and talked about the outstanding quality of Australian education. Atkinson expressed confidence that Australian IS will deliver a very high standard of academic excellence to its students. She recognized the educational institution as a pioneer and one of the largest and most instrumental organizations in promoting Australian education in the Philippines.
What sets a graduate of AIS apart from other students is the Australian high-school diploma that one will earn. “It gives the student an edge when they apply for a university anywhere in the world,” said David Esteban, Australian IS’s director for marketing and communications.
“Enrollees and prospective enrollees will enjoy the high standard that we are offering to them,” added Esteban. “They will be exposed to an environment that nurtures their passion for learning and gives space for creative and personal growth.”
Australian IS sets a new standard in student-centered, progressive, international education in the Philippines. Students and parents that come to Australian IS will be joining a happy and healthy, welcoming school community.
