As a young school, we staunchly believe that ‘Sky is the limit’ when it comes to providing with global opportunities to our children to emerge as global citizens and 21st century learners tapping on every possible lucrative offer as a life- changing prospect. With this intent, we gladly opened an opportunity for our students for a virtual student exchange program with Jacksonville Country Day School (JCDS), which is located in the north-eastern part of Florida in the United States. We happily offered this as an exposure to our children to the global culture and diversity. Our 5th/6th grade students collaborated and exchanged their learning and knowledge about their country as worthy Paul Georgeans, taking the glory of their school and our nation to the next level.

The program took place in various stages at multiple levels, where our students had put their best foot forward as worthy representatives of PGGS. Each child boarded the virtual flight to ensure meaningful exchange of learning between the two schools. Distance didn’t deter any member to fall back or pick up slow. Their excitement, level of enthusiasm and inquisitiveness pushed us to take the exchange program for the entire quarter, which was indeed a remarkable achievement!

With the grand success of the exchange program for the academic session 2020-21, we wish to continue with our partnership with JCDS next year as well in the best interest and learning of our children.
