Fostering Progress &

The Athletics Department at Mark Twain International School strives to create and maintain a balanced and stimulating sports environment accessible to all our students during the regular school programme, but also outside the school day. Consistent with the Mark Twain IS mission, gym teachers, coaches and parents work together within the programme to inspire students to develop self-worth, but also to be considerate and to value their team members and opponents.
The safe and inviting environment fosters progress and achievement, allowing students to attain high aptitudes and enjoy themselves in the process. As a result, students will improve their physical condition and skills and also learn the significance of sports discipline, teamwork, commitment, fair-play and the excitement of competing. Mark Twain IS students have equal opportunities to participate regardless of ability. The gym teachers and coaches will consider the following factors when deciding upon the teams: dexterity, previous experience, and social rapports.
Mark Twain International School has been my educational haven since the tender age of 6. Now, navigating the second year of the diploma programme, my academic journey spans from delving into computer science to embracing the world of arts, particularly music. Being an active member of the musical theatre club has allowed me to showcase my talents on stage, thanks to the school's commitment to providing opportunities for students.
The experience at Mark Twain goes beyond the curriculum. Engaging classes led by passionate teachers have made learning a joy. Mark Twain is more than a school; it's a second home where the warmth of belonging lingers. The plethora of opportunities the school offers has been instrumental in shaping my growth, leaving me with a reservoir of memories and skills that will stay with me throughout life

Mark Twain International School was my home for 12 years and continues to be a place I hold very dear to my heart. It is a community that nurtures excellence, self-empowerment and growth on both academic and personal levels, where the individual is viewed and appreciated as a whole. However, for me, Mark Twain is about the people - teachers and directors whom I daresay have become my family, my friends, people who I know will always welcome me with open arms and sincere smiles, people I look up to, who have guided me and shaped me into who I am today. Thank you, Mark Twain
