Hello ISB, I am a house captain candidate and here are my areas of interest and why you should vote for me.

In sporting and Eco week events I would like to make sure everyone feels included and experiences achievement.

International day is cool since the whole community gets together but doesn’t it get a little bit dull after a hour and 30 minutes? I would combine my love for sport and internationalism by helping house captains host an international day penalty challenge

Each goal ticks that student or parent’s nation off a world map. Imagine the fun roaming the campus finding more nationalities to play our game. The more goals, the more countries we celebrate!
