At EIS (EIS International Boarding School), we believe that true global citizenship involves not only academic excellence but also a deep appreciation for the world’s diverse cultures. Our commitment to community engagement allows our students to immerse themselves in the local culture and connect with the broader community.

Key Features of Community Engagement at EIS:

1. Local Integration: EIS is situated in a region known for its rich cultural heritage. We encourage our students to actively participate in the local community, whether by learning the local language, volunteering, or attending cultural events. This integration helps students gain a deeper understanding of the local way of life.

2. Friendship Beyond Borders: Our students have the opportunity to build lasting friendships with local students. This interaction fosters a sense of unity, understanding, and shared experiences across cultures.

4. Volunteering and Outreach: EIS students engage in various community service and outreach initiatives. These projects not only make a positive impact but also instill a sense of responsibility and empathy in our students.

5. Local Adventures: Students have access to local adventures, from exploring historical sites to participating in regional festivals. These excursions provide students with opportunities to learn about the culture and history of their surroundings.

6. Sports and Recreation: EIS students actively participate in local sports events and activities, promoting camaraderie and healthy competition with their peers from the region.
