16 novembre - Carnaval de TES
Le Carnaval de TES est l'un des plus grands événements de l’école qui regroupe à la fois les fêtes déguisées traditionnelles locales, Halloween, et les autres Carnavals à travers le monde. Toute la communauté de TES y participe. Les étudiants, les enseignants, l’équipe administrative, et les parents se déguisent et viennent à l'événement. On y trouve bon nombre de stands de nourriture et de boissons, mis en place par chaque classe de collège et lycée. Des jeux sont organisés par les P4. L'année dernière, il y avait une Escape Room. Y sont présentés différentes activités et des prix sont distribués pour le plus joli costume, la famille la mieux déguisée et il y a un atelier de citrouilles sculptées la veille. Les fonds récoltés par la vente des tickets sont reversées au conseil des parents d’élèves. De plus, les classes vendent de la nourriture et des boissons pour gagner de l’argent, et l’utiliser ensuite pour des événements et des voyages scolaires.

- On the 13th of September, the 13th Annual Firefighter Games took place in Estonia. Over 600 students took part, including some who came from our own P5, S4 and S6 classes. They were expertly coached and cheehttps://gallery.mailchimp.com/cbb376715209d810ef07940aa/images/dd2ee0d0-dab2-4532-928d-b9d586654a4a.jpgred on by Hilppa Elmgren (P5ENA Class, Maths & Sciences Teacher) and Tuula Friman (S6 Class & Finnish Language Teacher).
- During the first weekend of the school year, S2 class teacher Triinu Tõrv organized a 2-night camping trip by a lake outside of Tallinn. The class had a great time pitching tents, cooking, hiking through the forest, bog swimming and learning outdoor skills from a survival guide.
- P1P2 French Section enjoyed a miniature singing exchange with P2 English section. First they performed beautifully a song in French and were treated to an English song in return. It was a lovely way to mix the French and English sections together and to get everyone out of their classrooms.
- As part of their PE curriculum, Upper Secondary students are organizing certain events and activities for the whole school throughout the school year. Last week saw the ‘Capture the Flag Championship’ – a firm favourite for everyone in the playground.
- On Thursday, September 27th, P2A, P4A and P5 class students were lucky to be treated to their own piano concert assembly by Ellen Jansson, a friend of Miss Lydia’s, who is a professional pianist. They listened to a variety of music from France, Russia and Ireland and discussed it afterwards. She made our school children feel very fortunate by taking her time to play for them just for the love of it, as the next evening, Miss Jansson performed in Alexela hall in Tallinn.
- Last week saw the European Day of Languages. To celebrate, radio station Vikerraadio asked 13 TES pupils to sing ‘Brother John’ in 14 different official European Languages. The rendition was filmed and can be viewed on the official Facebook page of TES as well as the Parents of TES page. It was played on the radio station as part of a competition to see who could guess the 14 languages correctly, with the winner becoming the proud owner of a new tablet.
