My first days at St Clare’s were unforgettable. During Arrivals, everyone was extremely welcoming and helpful. The staff guided me on a tour of the school, answering all my questions and making me feel at home from the very beginning. That day was also special because I made several new friends, which made the start of my journey here much easier and more exciting.
Orientation Weekend was another important moment. It gave me the chance to meet more classmates, learn about the school in detail, and get to know the directors and teachers personally. The activities were well planned to encourage interaction, and I felt it was the perfect way to start building connections and adapting to the new environment.
The highlight, however, was the St Clare’s Olympics. The event was very well organised, with everyone involved and participating enthusiastically. It was not only about sports but also about teamwork, school spirit, and having fun together. Seeing students cheering for each other and enjoying every activity created a great atmosphere of unity.
Overall, these first experiences have shown me the importance of interaction in building friendships and creating a strong community. From Arrivals to Orientation Weekend and the Olympics, every moment has helped me feel included and part of something bigger.
