"By the time our youngest students will have graduated, technology will have transformed the world as we know it. Our young people will live, work and relate to others in ways that may simply be unrecognizable from those of today.

We must therefore help students to develop the skills, knowledge, values and personality to ensure they will thrive and be happy in this ever-changing technological of their future. This is our challenge.

The pioneering aviator, poet and literary laureate, Antione de Saint-Exupéry, loved these complex challenges. He understood the transformative power of technology and education, and took personal action to promote story-telling and creative writing.

By naming our school ‘Exupery’, we honour his legacy. We are an IB World School, dedicated to developing the next generation of designers, entrepreneurs, innovators and artists - people who will not only exceed their own expectations in years to come, but contribute positively and effectively within their communities.

As a parent myself, I know how important it is to find the right education for your child. I would be very pleased to share with you further details about our innovative vision for education".

"Like the great humanist and writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, I believe that "only the children know what they are looking for.” The task of all adults is only to help them to find it. "The Little Prince" is one of the most beloved and significant books in my life. It reminds adults of what was important when they were little children, and also manages to teach us that important things happen here and now, not at some later time. Therefore the name for this school - Exupery - came naturally.

Exupery International School is a place where teachers are mentors that help children not only master the academic program, but, most importantly, find their mission. After all, the happiest people on Earth are those whose childhood hobbies have become part of their professional life. If a person is engaged in what he or she really likes, then they have both the motivation and desire to move forward and achieve true results".
