The last few months were a challenge for everyone and our PSG was no exception. Usually towards the end of the school year, we organize a teachers and staff luncheon to show our appreciation for all their hard work. We were also very busy organizing the decor and all the bake sales for every Spring Concert, the Bingo Bash for Kids and the traditional monthly coffee mornings.
THEY GRADUATED! After much uncertainty and a very difficult few months for the world and our community, the class of 2020 officially graduated on the 6th of June, in a moving collection of pre-recorded video clips and live moments, such as the all-important Tassel Ceremony!

On Friday January 31st, 24 students from Yokohama Science Frontier High School (YSFHS) joined the combined Grade 7 classes from Saint Maur in a collaborative activity to build a catapult.
Six students from Yokohama Science Frontier High School (YSFH) visited Saint Maur between November 14th – 16th as part of the annual exchange programme. The students followed their Grade 10 and 11 hosts and as well as taking a keen interest in how Science is taught at Saint Maur, participated in the full range of regular classes and activities. The event provided students with the opportunity to find out about the differences between the Japanese education system and life at an International School. Many of the students were surprised by the differences between them.
