EtonHouse Conversations

How can you nurture positive and respectful relationships with your children? ‘The EtonHouse Parenting’ series host interactive webinars with experts who share practical hands-on strategies and real-life experiences to help parents develop deep, meaningful and sustainable relationships with their children. Our first session, ‘The Language Of Kindness - How do you nurture empathy in your toddler?’ is out now. 

University options and career pathways are important and critical considerations for all families. However, it looks different for every individual student. Some know as early as their primary or secondary years on what they would want to pursue as a career option while others may take up to their undergraduate years to figure things out. There are many questions that come to the fore when families start to think of this and we hope this sharing will aid you and your children as they embark on this very exciting and significant journey. We speak to Hannah Thompson, Careers and University Guidance Counsellor at EtonHouse International School Orchard to find out more.

In this podcast we discuss the EAL programme at EtonHouse International School. English as an Additional Language(EAL) learning caters to students whose native language isn't English and require assistance to develop proficiency in the English language. Students come from diverse backgrounds, and in keeping with the IBO's philosophy of intercultural understanding and respect, EtonHouse recognises that learning an additional language together with maintaining the student's mother tongue is essential as language is our means of thinking and communicating.  How do we get students well equipped in the language so that they can take an active role in the classroom and maintain a seamless pathway towards their higher education?

We speak to Kieran Macken, EAL coordinator and teacher at EtonHouse Orchard to find out more.
