Ten years ago, I watched every single film nominated for the Oscars. Helped with the Tarsus betting pool! I hadn't heard of any of this year's nominees, but thanks to this recommendation, I now have a pick for best short film.

So excited for #Bookweek! Here's my #ishrshelfie 🤓 Thanks to @kristihov @mreaglelearning Bernadettefitzg Jenny Lee for crafting a massive ISHR Book Week in the midst of a crazy school year. 👏👏👏

Our middle schoolers returned today, after more than four months of distance learning! 🎉👏🥳 We had a special Back-to-Campus day to rebuild connections and ease the transition. @ISHannover @ISHRLearns

It was our first day of having all students on ISHR campus at the same time. @kristihov and Bernadettefitzg had the library ready to welcome them 👏📚😁

Lucky me: a tour of the most beautiful international school I have seen (ISHelsinki) and a great mentoring lunch with HoS @KNaglee. Inspired!

Welcoming our new ISHR faculty with a Goosechase scavenger hunt of Hannover city. It all came down to finding a real dog! Duncan FitzGerald for the equalizer challenge. #ishrlearns

ISHR's commitment to experiential learning runs deep: fire training for our new staff got a bit intense! Thankfully everyone had some practice at using an extinguisher. #healthandsafety

Thank you, Nancy!

Quick trip to run the Berliner Halbmarathon. I was slow, but happy to finish after an IT band injury a month ago. #BerlinHalf #Halbmarathon

What a joyful first week of school we’re having here at ISHR! I am enjoying a new office view of the courtyard, a hub of learning and play. @ISHRLearns

While I made the most of all those pandemic webinars, it felt wonderful to be learning and digging into the work together as a team. Thanks Susie March for guiding us through building comprehensive sexuality education at ISHR!

On this beautiful September day, our g8 science classes were sparking inquiry with some outdoor learning. @ISHRLearns

Today's joy was helping lead an IFSEL session on Voice and Identity (combining SEL and DEI) for middle and high school faculty at Shanghai American. With @nickhaisman in England and Genta Branstetter in HK. Can't imagine that would have been possible pre-covid!

Our grade 8s @ISHannover are an impressive bunch. Today’s assembly included music, speeches on service projects and an anti-bullying skit. Courageous students guided by a great advisory team!

I can’t wait to read this! I’m so inspired by Chrystia’s model of leadership. And proud of Michelle MacAleese for publishing it 👏

So excited to see the Giller Prize and cheering on Glorious Frazzled Beings, edited by Michelle MacAleese (👏congrats👏)

Ready for day 2 of this amazing gathering of passionate educators to build an International School Anti-Discrimination Taskforce #ISADTF International Baccalaureate KDSLGlobal and AIELOC DEIJ and @EcolintGeneva Glad to have the opportunity to represent @ISHannover #ishrlearns

“Move beyond ‘allyship’ and engage as an advocate…Their presence is revolutionary – uplift them, and in turn, you will play a part in breaking the cycle of oppression that plagues our ecosystem.” The #ISADTF was a remarkable gathering - what’s next?

My first post-Covid school trip with the 8th graders to Camp Adventure near Walsrode. Campfires, marshmallows and grade 8 social-emotional learning through relationship skill building! ⁦@ISHannover⁩ ⁦@ISHRLearns⁩
