Unison World School, India
There was great anticipation at Kilgraston on Sunday morning as we awaited the arrival of fifteen girls and two teachers from Unison World School, India. This eighteen day visit marks the beginning of an International Exchange Programme between both schools where girls and staff will be immersed in each other’s cultures, living and learning together, sharing the hopes, aspirations and challenges which they face in their respective countries.
Unison is an all-girls residential school in Dehradhun, set in the foothills of the Himalayas and is ranked as number three school in India. The girls and staff will live in Kilgraston, attend lessons and visit historical, political, scientific and cultural sites. Their experience will be reciprocated next October when a group of Kilgraston pupils and staff will travel to India. It is hoped that the Exchange Programme will promote the advancement of international understanding, the dissemination of learning and the strengthening of cultural ties.
Head Girl Iona Godfrey-Faussett said in her welcome “This exchange is a very special opportunity for us to build a strong relationship between our two schools and to make firm friendships, sharing our ways of life with each other”.
