The IB staff at Ermitage took the opportunity to mark the DP2 student's '100 days to Graduation' and have a celebratory lunch. The significance of 100 days is truly felt by both staff and students, with a sense of achievement, challenge and a few nerves along the way.

Students were treated to pizza, drinks and giant cookies, along with balloons and music.  It was lovely to be able to share positive, supportive and encouraging messages from the teachers to the students through a display on the wall. The students also had personalised messages of encouragement that their families had secretly provided prior to the event, and it was lovely to see how much they enjoyed reading them. A huge congratulations to the students for reaching this stage in the course, along with messages of good luck for the next few months for all!
