Junior School Prefects
The Junior School Prefects are participating in their weekly duties everyday where they share their various experiences, hobbies, and interests with the Junior School students. Playing basketball, tag, and even hanging out, having small talks with the younger students, we are working towards building a stronger bond between the two schools of NLCS Jeju!
Recently, we have organized a small Halloween event for the Junior students where we decorated halloween-themed cookies, specially handmade by our wonderful Prefects! Building on this success, we are planning more holiday-themed celebrations throughout the year. Christmas preparations are already underway, and we’re excited to bring even more joy and creativity to the students as we continue to strengthen the connection between our schools through meaningful interactions and festive fun!
