Just as the name entails, "International Day" is a special one-day event in GLI that will bring other countries inside the classroom. The students will have a chance to get their very own GLI Passports stamped, and they can "visit" the countries featured for the event.

Here are some things that you can experience in an International Day: 1.

If this sounds exciting, here's one good news: we will have our first International Day on April! Two countries will be featured this time: Cambodia and the Philippines.

Details about how to join the International Day will be posted soon.
