AFS - An Intercultural Global Platform
At Vantage Hall Girls Residential School, AFS (American Field Service) serves as a vital intercultural platform that enriches the educational experience for both students and staff. This initiative fosters the development of inclusive, culturally diverse communities through a range of interactive programs, including both domestic and global exchange opportunities. These experiences promote personal growth, cultural exploration, and a strong sense of belonging among our students, ultimately cultivating active global citizenship.
Our school offers a variety of virtual and in-person activities and competitions that celebrate diversity through art, dance, music, science, literature, and poetry. These platforms encourage students to embrace and appreciate different cultures, enhancing their understanding of the world around them.
Furthermore, our Virtual Pathways to Global Classroom Training equips educators with the tools to impart global citizenship education effectively. This training emphasizes the importance of appreciating diverse cultures and methodologies, leading to improved learning outcomes.
Additionally, the Virtual Effect+ Workshop empowers students to develop essential 21st-century competencies, preparing them to navigate and contribute positively to an increasingly interconnected world. Through AFS, we are committed to fostering a rich educational environment that champions diversity and inclusivity, ultimately shaping responsible global citizens.
