Valentine's Day at the LFiA

Grade 11 and 12 students visit the SESAME center

As part of the Physics and Chemistry specialisation class, students in grade 11 and 12 had the opportunity to visit the SESAME (Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East) center in Salt.
First, a physicist explained how the particle accelerator works. An engineer then explained the various fields of application, from archaeology to medicine and the environment.
They were also able to see that many of the concepts they had learnt about in their specialisation are now being used in advanced research, and that there is an immense field of knowledge open to them.

Our students have talent

Congratulations to Malak Jallad and Naya Jouineau who took 1st place in the Duet category and 2nd place in the Team category at the UDO (Middle East Street Dance) Championships in Dubai from 16 to 18 February 2024.

"Screen trained, online life balanced, well-being secured."

As part of the pHARe project, the month of February is dedicated to the safe use of the Internet. With this in mind, and in collaboration with the fantastic Orange coding school team, our students from 6ème to Secondes explored essential skills for using technologies responsibly and wisely, and navigating safely in this digital environment.
We would like to thank Orange for this initiative, and for all their efforts in making this experience a success.

Primary school students visit the lycée

Primary school students took a trip to the lycée to discover the “BADASS” exhibition on the theme of comic strip heroines.
The visit gave the young students an opportunity to explore new cultural and artistic perspectives presented in the exhibition.

Presentation of specialisations to grade 10 students

The LFiA organised a presentation of the seven specialities taught at the lycée for students in grade 10, led by teachers and students from grade 11 and grade 12, to help guide them in their career choices.
Many thanks to all those involved.
