Last Thursday, our Brighton College community had the honour of welcoming Mariam Ottimofiore—author of This Messy Mobile Life and The Guilty Can’t Say Goodbye—whose stories wove together the complexities and beauty of life across borders.

With warmth, humour, and insight, Mariam shared her personal journey of living in 10 countries over 20 years, raising Third Culture Kids, and navigating the delicate dance of multicultural identities. Her reflections resonated deeply with our international families, offering both comfort and clarity on how to support children (and ourselves) through the ever-evolving nature of international moves.

A heartfelt thank you to Santa Fe Relocation Singapore for making this session possible, and to everyone who joined us in person and online.

As Term 2 draws to a close, Brighton College (Singapore) ends on a high note—quite literally—with a spectacular celebration of music and talent. The Young Musician of the Year 2025 showcase brought together nearly 60 budding performers, each one pouring heart and soul into their craft. From the first gentle notes of a beginner’s melody to the confident rhythms of our more seasoned musicians, every performance was a reminder of the joy and power of music.

Their recordings are now on their way to Brighton College UK, where they’ll join submissions alongside our Brighton College family of schools—an inspiring global symphony of young talent.

As we turn the page on Term 2, we reflect with pride and gratitude on the many vibrant moments our pupils have shared—experiences that have helped them grow in confidence and shine in their own unique ways.

Last week, we had the joy of hosting 19 pupils and staff from All Saints Primary School in Wales, visiting as part of a UK government-funded cultural exchange programme aimed at broadening horizons through international travel.

Our Year 6 pupils welcomed their pen pals with big smiles and warm hearts, while visiting teachers connected with our staff to share ideas on curriculum, classroom practice, and how we create inspiring learning environments.

A highlight of the morning was an immersive Mandarin workshop with Ms Wang, followed by a special opportunity to meet His Excellency, Mr. Nikesh Mehta, British High Commissioner to Singapore.

Experiences like this foster empathy, curiosity, and a global perspective, and we look forward to future collaborations with All Saints Primary School. Thank you Mr Handley for organising such a meaningful visit for pupils and educators alike.

🏕️ Year 4’s Great Outdoor Adventure! 🌿

Three days, two nights, and endless memories—our Year 4 pupils embarked on an unforgettable residential camp at Pasir Ris, filled with adventure, discovery, and teamwork.

From rafting across the water to navigating through orienteering challenges, conquering the high ropes at Forest Adventure, and mastering survival skills, they tackled every challenge with courage and enthusiasm.

But one of the most magical moments? Gathering under the stars to watch How to Train Your Dragon—a perfect way to bring our book of the term to life in an outdoor mini theatre setting.

We are beyond proud of our Year 4s for stepping out of their comfort zones, embracing the unknown, and supporting one another through every new experience. Here is to adventure, lifelong friendships, and the joy of learning beyond the classroom!
