On May 21, 2016, a team of 21 NMS students from 7th to 12th grade embarked on a 5km race through Tiergarten to raise awareness for breast cancer.

Special thanks go to Ms. McCabe who accompanied the runners during the race, and to Mr. Fraikin, who allowed us to join his training sessions.

The IB students’ final exams are done!
