“I thought it was the best conference for PE that I’ve been to, it was really well organised and run, the presenters were excellent and the range of activities and workshops that were offered to us was outstanding. I have come away with so many new ideas to share and try out at my school, and it has left me feeling inspired to go back and do what I do better!”
“It was a great conference and as a first time presenter I was made to feel comfortable and supported through the whole process. The conference was set up for great networking and a relaxed atmosphere for easy learning and many practical take aways.”
A fantastic conference! Loved the junk trip. Everyone should do that! Thank for all the hard work your committee put into organizing.
A fantastic weekend. It was a real pleasure to get together with like minded professionals from around our region. The only thing I wish was that I could split myself into three so I could attend all the workshops I wanted to!

As a local student in an international school I lived through many experiences that I didn't understand until very recently. In 2019, students at international schools around the world began to protest against schools that were impeding them from their own values, traditions and languages.
