International events at Nobel Algarve
Nobel Algarve is proud to be part of Globeducate. As such, our pupils gain invaluable opportunities for international cooperation and collaboration.
Throughout the academic year, Globeducate regularly organises events in which schools from different countries take part. These are unique learning experiences that give an added value to the international preparation of our pupils, making them readier for the global world and more respectful towards other cultures. They are usually hosted by a family at the host school and have the chance to make new friends.
These international events are a vital part of the global preparation of the students, who acquire a universal and open vision of the world. They also pave the way for a higher degree of academic and professional mobility and a better understanding of today’s global problems. Thanks to the participation of schools from all over the world, the pupils improve their language skills while they interact with students from other countries and cultures.
