Brillantmont International School recently celebrated the success of its students at the prestigious THIMUN conference in Singapore, under the leadership of Victor McClean, the Head of Academics. This event highlighted the school's long-standing commitment to fostering globally minded citizens through participation in Model United Nations (MUN) conferences. Over fifteen students from École internationale de Brillantmont engaged in real-world diplomacy, tackling critical global issues such as sustainable development and international security. The experience not only enhanced their understanding of complex subjects but also honed their public speaking and collaboration skills, embodying the school's dedication to holistic education.
The participation in THIMUN Singapore underscored the transformative impact of MUN on students at École internationale de Brillantmont. Beyond academic growth, the conference nurtured essential life skills like teamwork, emotional intelligence, and independent research, aligning with the school's Service and Leadership Programme. Students returned with a broader perspective on global issues, a strengthened sense of responsibility, and the confidence to engage in meaningful dialogue. The event also facilitated cross-cultural connections, emphasizing the importance of empathy and collaboration in addressing worldwide challenges. Brillantmont's encouragement for every student to participate in at least one MUN conference reflects its belief in the value of these experiences in shaping informed, compassionate leaders.
