= PURPOSE
Our students are our legacy.
Our students excel academically and in extra-curricular through their experiences with CAFE.
Each student finds their passion and their strength. They often stay with us into adulthood, returning to serve, mentor and inspire the next generation. Our students leave CAFE as confident, purpose driven and highly networked individuals. At CAFE, we are proud that our students are our legacy!

PASSION
CAFE Manifesto.
The promise of experiencing the new, the fun. Traveling to the beyond, breaking barriers through the integration and expansion of an adaptable STREAM curriculum. The discipline to choose to swim. Music as antidote, family as harbor, friends as anchors. Recognizing and building on individual talents through team work. Developing courage, nurturing curiosity to seek and create innovative ideas, building them together. Building bridges through diversity, experiencing the world and fostering academic growth through the arts. Becoming world citizens through our explorations.
We explore the world together.
International exchange is one of our key features. Our children deserve to explore this vast world and create dynamic world views that take our nations forward.
