Windermere Preparatory School welcomed more than 1,000 students — 7th and 8th graders — from 20 of its sister schools across parent company Nord Anglia Education’s network in North, Central and South America to its 48-acre campus on the shores of the Butler Chain of Lakes to celebrate the 2024 Global Games, a five-day annual event focusing on sports and global connectedness.
From Dec. 3-7, 12- to 14-year-old students from eight different countries competed in a variety of sports — from basketball to soccer, swimming, tennis, beach volleyball, and many more — at Windermere Prep’s athletic facilities as part of an educational strategy aimed at helping students develop a sense of global connectedness while also showcasing their skills in a range of sports and engaging with students from different countries.
“The Global Games isn’t just about athletic achievement,” said John McCall, Regional Managing Director for the Americas region of Nord Anglia Education, in a press release. “It’s about teamwork, school spirit (and) making new friends. We’re committed to delivering our mission of empowering students to succeed in school and life by providing opportunities for students to build relationships and leadership skills through athletic competition.”
