    Message from Belinda Greer

    Dear Parents This has been an incredible term in our schools. When we came back after Christmas, we were all hopeful that the tide was turning in the City’s fight against the pandemic. We had already seen many of the restrictions relaxed or removed – but we knew that the biggest one was still in place: the requirement for your children and our staff to wear masks during class. I have to tell you that, in all my many years in education, I have rarely seen one decision have such an impact on so many people at the same time. The day that the mask mandate was removed led to one of the biggest explosions of energy in our schools that I have ever known. In these last few weeks, our schools have been hosting so many events. From art shows to sports days – from PYP Exhibitions to the outstanding ESF Evening of Dance that took place in ESF West Island School. It has been incredibly emotional for all of us to see your children so happy as they were once again able to join with their teachers and their fellow students, mask free, to celebrate their friendships and their learning together. This short video HERE will give you a flavour of just how happy, joyous and full of energy this term has been. I know that it is only the start and that we can look forward to many more events in the weeks and months that lie ahead of us. I want to thank you all, from the bottom of my heart, for the way in which you have supported and worked with us during these long years of Covid. The dark days are over and the sun has risen once again. The future for ESF, our schools and, above all, your children is a bright one. Whatever you are doing over the break, I hope that you have a wonderful time. When you come back, recharged and refreshed, you will find us as we always are: raring to go – and ready to make good on our promise to you to help every one of our students be the best that they can be. As always, thanks. Belinda Greer Chief Executive

  • Oculus 2022-2023

    Audition for Live Blind Concert: the sign-up deadline is Friday, 7th April

    Hi! We are the Oculus team of 2022-2023. This year, we will be hosting the first Live Blind Concert in over three years! The aim of this event is to raise awareness regarding visual impairment and the extent to which it impacts the lives of those with it, as well as to appeal to the community through music and creativity in hopes of generating more support for the visually impaired. In addition to the concert, we will be filming and compiling a video for those who cannot make it to the live performances which will then be uploaded onto Youtube.

    The 'blind' aspect of our concert is that audience members will be blindfolded to experience the music, so don't be turned away by the pressure of performing! If you are interested in auditioning, please fill in this form by Friday, 7th of April.

    Any type of music is allowed, you will only be asked to perform around 2 minutes of your chosen pieces for the auditions. Both groups and ensembles are welcome!  Sincerely,
    The Oculus Team 2023
