Empower the next generation of diplomats! Our year 10-12 students took a big step towards that vision by leading a Model United Nations (MUN) debate for our year 9s. It provided a fantastic platform for these younger students to hone their research, public speaking, and critical thinking skills as they tackled global issues. Their passion and engagement truly embodied the DBS motto: "SEMPER AD MAIORA" (Always to Greater Things). They embraced the challenges with a spirit that reflected the "Five DBS Pillars," particularly the focus on academic excellence and creative thinking. We were incredibly impressed by how they navigated complex situations with maturity and respect.  This MUN Day was a testament that DBS equips students with the knowledge, values, and skills they need to thrive as global leaders in the 21st century. We can't wait to see what these future diplomats achieve! View Gallery
