The story begins in 2016 when a family became part of the Surval community, marking the start of an unforgettable journey. The elder sister's enrollment for the 2016-2017 academic year opened doors to extraordinary experiences, including educational trips to Dubai, Morocco, and Japan. These adventures were not just about travel but also about significant progress in learning French, showcased through her detailed travel journals. Her achievements were recognized with the Highly Commended Student of the Year Award, setting a inspiring precedent for her sibling. Following in her footsteps, the younger sister joined in the 2019-2020 school year, facing the unique challenge of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the global crisis, the school remained a beacon of stability and joy, offering a plethora of activities like cycling, hiking, and culinary classes, ensuring that the spirit of adventure never dimmed. This resilience and commitment to student well-being earned her the same prestigious award, cementing the family's deep connection with the school.
The bond with the school only grew stronger over the years. After graduating, the younger sister took on the role of a Survalienne Ambassador in Mexico, staying closely connected with the school's community. The summer of 2022 marked a new chapter as both sisters returned to the school, this time as staff members for the Surval Summer Camp. Leveraging her expertise in photography and content production, the younger sister embraced the role of Camp Photographer, capturing the essence of summer camp life for social media and the Survalienne community. The experience was so rewarding that she returned the following year, and even extended her involvement to the winter camp. Her work goes beyond mere documentation; it's about preserving the joy of discovery, the thrill of new friendships, and the creation of lifelong memories. This role allows her to give back to the institution that played a pivotal role in her personal and academic growth, while also inspiring the next generation of students.
