Finding My Voice: A Personal Learning Moment
My amazing learning moment was overcoming fear. I still remember how nervous I used to get whenever we had to do a public speaking project in different subjects.

A great choice for our families
As a parent, I highly recommend Colegio Terranova. It is an excellent institution academically, with a very high standard and a holistic approach that truly prepares students for the future.
Gabriela Jaramillo
Parent
Colegio Terranova was not just my school it was the place where I began to discover who I am and what I want to contribute to the world.
Every experience, every teacher, and every opportunity shaped my path in a unique way. Representing the school in international settings, traveling, learning about new cultures, and connecting with incredible people taught me the value of curiosity, respect, and teamwork. Today, I look back with deep gratitude, knowing that much of who I am the way I think, lead, and dream was born there.

Nurturing balance for future success
I, Gonzalo Iturbide Ale, parent of a 5th-grade student, am very pleased that our daughter studies at Colegio Terranova, where balance is fundamental for the well-being and development of students, helping them reach their full academic and intellectual potential. The school’s holistic education and academic program combine the best practices, allowing students to be well-prepared for the future.
Gonzalo Iturbide Ale
I was a student at Terranova School, Class of 2023, and I am very happy to share that in February 2025 I published my first book, Cortina de Niebla (Fog Curtain), a project I developed over several years. Much of the inspiration came from my Language and Literature classes; my teachers had a profound influence on my writing and how I understand texts.
