Welcome Group
The Welcome Group was formed in 2008 to welcome new parents to the school and provides advice and support for families who have just moved to Milan. The group works closely with the school and class/year contacts to identify new parents, particularly those that come in the middle of the school year.
The Welcome Group is made up of parents from different neighborhoods or areas of Milan (Milano 2, city center etc). They are available to help answer any questions new parents may have about living in Milan. They also hold regular coffee morning and help new parents network and meet other families that may live nearby or share interests or needs.
New parents are given a booklet prepared by the Welcome Group which gives lots of useful information on how to get settled in Milan. The booklet has practical information on getting around town, shopping or obtaining services (official documents, utilities, health services, sports lessons etc). The most recent edition can be downloaded by clicking on the link below.
