On the 12th of March, Uplands College staff members and pupils welcomed representatives from the following schools onto campus:
- Westlake Academy, Texas, USA
- International School of Brussels, Belgium
- Gauß-Gymnasium, Worms, Germany
- Edmonton Islamic Academy, Edmonton, Canada
The Conference got off to a good start. There were ice-breaker activities as the pupils got to know each other. The pupils then introduced themselves and the country they came from. They had to name a few unique features that their country has that no other country has, and this exercise proved a great eye-opener for everyone to learn about other countries and to expand on their general knowledge.
