Monday, December 7th 2020
Happy December!
Can you believe we’re on the final stretch of 2020?
The IBlieve team has already been enthusiastically planning BIG new projects, events, and opportunities we have for you IB students next year in 2021!
In particular, we are so proud of our Y2 students who are already stepping up to support Y1 students through our upcoming IBuddies mentorship program – while they’re still IB students themselves. The IBlieve community continues to be amazed by our students who have a contagious love for giving back and helping others.
Keep motivating each other through our IB journeys. We’re stronger together. 🥊 🌏
Cheering you on,
Imogen and Katie❤️

Pfizer vaccine approved for COVID-19 in the U.K.
For months we’ve been wondering – when can we get back to “normal”? Social distancing and not being able to see friends & family has had an enormous impact on our social lives, as well as well-being. But most notably, the global pandemic has disrupted the education, health, and livelihoods of millions of families.
This week, the U.K. announced the approval of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, developed by the American drugmaker Pfizer and Germany's BioNTech, giving us hope about the future and other anticipated advances in the scientific community.
