We have organic gardens that supply approximately 70% of the vegetables consumed at the school. We seek to create healthy eating habits in our students, who receive ongoing support for their nutritional status.
The house system is a traditional feature of British educational institutions. In homage to our Colombian heritage, our houses are Muisca, Quimbaya, Sinu, and Tairona. Students cultivate creativity, teamwork, and public-speaking skills in these spaces. During the year, students compete in poetry, music, theatre, dances, and sports; the house with the most points is crowned champion at graduation.
The school is a private educational institution governed and owned by Colegio San Jorge de Inglaterra S.A.S. It is bilingual with origins in the British educational tradition.
