ISC-Erbil Organizes SLO™ Mini-Camp
ISC-Erbil Organizes SLO™ Mini-Camp
On February 19, 2010, the SABIS Student Life Organization® at the International School of Choueifat-Erbil organized their first two-day SLO™ mini-camp for students. Twenty-five eager students participated in the event conducted by the SABIS® Student Life Consultant, Mr. Roger Soweid.

The students engaged in activities revolving around the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, the Power of Positive Thinking, the FISH! Philosophy®, and many more thought-provoking topics. “I learned so much, not only about what Mr. Soweid taught us, but about life and the people around me,” said one of the participants. “It added and optimized everything I’ve learned so far at ISC-Erbil. It encouraged and inspired me.” Another participant commented, “The mini-camp was one of the best experiences I had throughout my four years at ISC-Erbil.” “It taught us ways to become better members of society and reinforced what we have learned at Choueifat.”
An integral part of the SABIS® Educational System, the Student Life Organization fosters self-development, strong leadership skills, and attributes that prepare students for college and beyond. Having demonstrated that they have a broad range of abilities and experiences and that they can be effective and valuable team players, students become strong candidates at top universities around the world.

“I want ISC-Erbil students to be exposed to more formal team work, critical thinking skills, and also to understand the qualities that develop good leadership skills,” commented ISC-Erbil Student Life Coordinator. “With the help of this training camp, I hope students will better understand the importance of SLO™ and their role in the day-to-day life not only on campus but everywhere else as well.”
A member of the SABIS® School Network, ISC-Erbil recently celebrated the achievement of reaching the 1000 student mark, a growth that reflects the school’s successful implementation of the SABIS® Educational System.
