Editorial This second edition of Peak Perspectives looks back with fondness at sweet memories made last year and also looks ahead to another school year full of adventures. In this edition, we welcome a new Director General, a whole cohort of fresh Grade 6 faces, new students and staff from all over the world… even a new magazine Co-Editor-In-Chief and a new Agony Uncle! Mr Philips has generously agreed to reply to your worry doll letters. You can anonymously complete the form at the end of this issue or pop an unsigned letter in the Peak Perspectives box outside the restaurant. We will publish his advice to you (again, anonymously) in the next magazine. If you’ve written an interesting story, taken a stunning or funny photo, made a video, penned a thought-provoking article, designed a puzzle, drawn a picture, or created anything else you’d like to share in the magazine, please don’t hesitate to send it our way. We want this magazine to allow our whole community to shine. lrismediateam@regentschool.ch Katyayani Datla and Daniela Frenkel - Co-Editors-In-Chief (With support from Mrs Shaw)
