Moonlight in Monaco
Tuesday 25 November 2025
First trialled in New York over the summer, we closed the Autumn term with an evening reception for parents and schools overlooking the harbour in Monaco.
More like a cocktail party than a traditional show, the evening began with a talk by our colleague William Petty from Bonas MacFarlane.
Parents based in Monaco arrived early for the talk, some bringing their teenagers. All were introduced to a range of leading schools to help them consider the next steps in their children's education.
