Family Days at Preschool – Vibrant, Joyful, and Full of Heart!
In the third week of May we had a fantastic time during our Family Days in preschool! Music, movement, a ball pool, giant bubbles, soft cubes, sports games, and creative fun like bookmark making, cookie glazing, bracelet crafting, and — of course — tasty homemade lemonade. So many little things came together to make it feel truly special.
Some more favorite highlights? The personalized souvenirs! Families could take home charming DIY flower pots and snap a photo on the spot — with an instant print tucked into a handmade frame created by the children. A simple, heartfelt keepsake to remember these joyful moments at home.
A big thank you to our Preschool Principal and the wonderful team of teachers and nannies for organizing it all — and to everyone who joined us. You made it such a warm and happy celebration!

Science Fair
On Saturday, March 22, our students delivered an outstanding performance at the DISR Indoor Football Match Day, facing strong competition from Deutsche Internationale Schule Riga (DISR), the International School of Riga (ISR), and Jura Docenko Futbola Skola “Alberts”. We competed in the U9 and U13 categories.
Our U9 team made a fantastic debut, winning four out of six games, while our older players demonstrated sharp strategy, excellent teamwork, and some spectacular goals!

Sports Day in Primary
Think bounce castles, sprint races, and balancing through the “Mine Field.” Picture determined faces at the Monkey Bars, skipping ropes cutting through the air, and the challenge of carrying water in a team relay.
Students joined forces to build towers using just paper cups, elastic bands, and a lot of communication — proving that teamwork really makes the dream work! From football and floorball to “Aqueduct” and some fantastic gymnastics performances, the day was packed with action, laughter, and learning.
A huge thank you to our incredible students and dedicated teachers who brought this event to life! A special shoutout goes to Ginta Strode, our PE Teacher and Sport Program Coordinator, for organizing it all. It was a joyful celebration of movement, teamwork, and school spirit!

International Day
Around the World, Right Here on Campus — That’s How We Did International Day at EIS!
From Chinese lantern-making to Brazilian rhythms and Jamaican dreadlocks and Indian dances — this year’s International Day was a true celebration of global diversity at Exupery International School.
Eager to explore and collect stamps, our students set off on a whirlwind journey across continents — all within the walls of EIS. Each guest received a “passport” to mark their visits as they moved from country to country, sampling traditional foods, learning cultural dances, and discovering fascinating facts about different parts of the world.
This vibrant event brought together our entire community — from Nursery to High School — with students, teachers, and parents all taking part. The day was filled with color, creativity, and connection, reminding us of the beauty of an open mind and a curious spirit.
Special thanks go to our incredible teachers for making it all possible — your dedication, inventiveness, and energy transformed classrooms into countries and lessons into memories. And thank you to all the families who joined the journey!

Theatre
This season, EIS students brought two thought-provoking plays to life.
Our G8–12 performers staged Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw — a sharp, witty tale about how language can shape identity and open new doors.
Meanwhile, G6–8 students presented The Blue Bird by Maurice Maeterlinck — a poetic journey in search of happiness, reminding us that joy is often found close to home.
Both productions were beautifully directed by our Russian Language Teacher, Helēna Afanasjeva. Congratulations to all the young actors and crew for their talent, dedication, and heart!

TOK Exhibition - What Shapes the Way We Understand the World?
Our G11 students recently transformed the EIS foyer into a stage for inquiry at the Theory of Knowledge Exhibition, examining how we come to know—and doubt—what surrounds us. Guided by TOK’s core prompts, they questioned the role of imagination in producing knowledge about the world, probed the relationship between culture and what we accept as truth, and even wondered whether some things remain genuinely unknowable. They reflected on whether certain forms of knowledge belong only to particular communities of knowers and considered which disciplines admit the least room for interpretation.
Each learner then selected an object—from everyday artifacts to cutting-edge images—to bring their personal inquiry into the physical realm, inviting visitors to engage directly with the ideas at hand.
