The day we were waiting for was here… the day that we went on a long flight to Australia for The Young Round Square Conference. Thinking about what Tasmania was going to be like, Doy, EJ and I were so excited, that we couldn’t be silent for a second!

Regents has just launched a cutting-edge learning programme for children aged 7 to 11 who are new to English. Known as ‘Intensive +’, the programme is unique to Regents. It is based on up-to-date research which recognises that, whilst many mainstream subjects are a challenge for children who are new to English, it is essential that they participate in ‘active learning’ scenarios with their peers in Music, Singing, Sport and ICT.
What a great start to the Year we’ve had. I knew this School was special when I made a preliminary visit in May, but the students here have a passion and bravery like nothing I’ve ever witnessed before.
