“Best school for better world”
The Russian International School “Galaxy” is a lay private nursery, primary and secondary school with a complete cycle in two sections:
Anglophone and Francophone.
It is located in Makepe, towards the Saint Monique Catholic Church and operates in a one-shift system of education.
We believe that every child is a Galaxy, unique and capable of everything. Our role as teachers is to see the child’s strengths and weaknesses and guide them gently through the process of education, making learning interesting and meaningful for the child.
We value uniqueness of every child.
We motivate them to be independent and responsible learners.
We teach them to love and care for each other and our planet.
We believe, that discovering the world and learning about Russian culture and traditions will make a great impact on their development, helping them to grow into inquirers, life-time learners, adults, who can look at daily situations from different perspectives.
Russian International Secondary School Galaxy is a Candidate School for the International Baccalaureat (IB) Diploma Program (IBDP).
This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy, a commitment to high quality, challenging, international education that RISS Galaxy believes is important for our students.
