Each month our Round Square Committee will be highlighting two of the six pillars of Round Square via a digital postcard and a presentation in chapel.

Round Square is an international program supporting the educational philosophy of Kurt Hahn. It is based on six pillars known as IDEALS, an acronym for Internationalism, Democracy, Environment, Adventure, Leadership and Service. The objective of the program is to empower youth to become committed, responsible global citizens through active involvement taking place on all levels from school activities and events, to exchanges and third world projects. Although every student at BCS is a Round Square member, students can take it a step further by joining the committee.

On April 12-13, Emma, Evan, Liam, and Hannah—members of our Round Square Committee—presented on this month's two pillars, Internationalism and Democracy. There are many ways internationalism is shown through our campus from the flags that hang in chapel representing the countries our students are from, to presentations about exciting cultural traditions around the world, and of course the international bazaars organized with the help of our dining staff. Democracy is shown on our campus through our yearly prefect elections, Model United Nations conferences, and the Duke of Edinburgh award.
