Book day is coming soon! Dress up as your favorite character for the entire day for only KRW 2,000! All of the money we collect is going to go to charity. This event is for the entire school, and we hope to see you as your favorite book characters on 28 March! Personally, I’m going to dress up as Pete the cat. Book day is celebrated for us to promote the love of reading! Some suggestions for costumes are Harry Potter, Strawberry shortcake, Doc Mcstuffin’s, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and Bluey. 

 

Francophonie Week

Ramadan

At Dulwich College Seoul, we recognize and respect the significance of Ramadan for our Muslim students, staff, and families. This holy month is a time when many Muslims go through a challenging but meaningful experience. Ramadan is special because Muslims fast from morning to evening, meaning they don’t eat or drink during daylight hours. At the end of the month, there is a joyful celebration called Eid, where families and friends gather to enjoy delicious food and exchange gifts!

As a community, we believe in supporting others through kindness and awareness. The Dulwich College Seoul community wishes a happy Ramadan to all our Muslim friends and families!

Join us for an event on Fostering Male Allies ft. Best-selling Author James Rhee of Red Helicopter

We are pleased to invite you to the AMCHAM Korea‘s Women’s Leadership Committee’s very first event this year on 27 March on fostering male allies to advance women’s empowerment in the workplace. James will speak about the ideas behind his book, the red helicopter, whose Korean version recently came out, and how it relates to the topic at hand, the importance of male allies in creating more inclusive workplaces (and more successful companies). 

This event is intended to bring male allies into the fold. We thought it would be a perfect opportunity to lower the barrier for male allies who want to support women’s empowerment but may need some pointers and strategies to do so. 

After a brief talk by James, Dulwich College Seoul’s Director of Communications, Marketing & External Relations Namju Cho will moderate a panel of distinguished speakers including James, Joo-Seuk Maing (맹주석), and Jade, Young-ok Kim of LEGOLAND Korea Resort.

Dulwich College Seoul is proud to sponsor this meaningful event and host it at our College, in partnership with AMCHAM KoreaBritish Chamber of Commerce in Korea and AHK Korea (Korean-German Chamber of Commerce and Industry). Diversity and inclusion are core values and we are looking forward to the robust discussion to be had! (We recently hosted the Women in International Schools Empowerment (WISE) conference and our historic all-female academic leadership team was extensively covered in local media.)

Space is limited so please RSVP early via this link here. Light refreshments will be served afterwards. See flyer and link for details.
