Globeducate Students in Global Final of WWF Wild Wisdom Quiz

Globeducate Students in Global Final of WWF Wild Wisdom Quiz

Two students from Agora Lledó International School, Spain, will represent their school, country and Globeducate in the global final of the WWF Wild Wisdom Quiz, with only six teams competiting. From across our Globeducate schools, 23 teams entered and four of these secured places in the Top 20 Leaderboard. 

The students, from the 5th Grade of Primary, came first in their national competition in November and will take part in the final on 9th December. The theme this year is big cats as 2022 is the year of the tiger - a once in a 12 year opportunity to come together to celebrate and secure a future for the most awe inspiring species of our planet.

In its 15th year, Wild Wisdom is tracing the trails of tigers and the vast wild spaces they inhabit across the globe, and as the apex predator of the food chain, is the umbrella species of the ecosystem.

Pablo Gómez said: "I'm thrilled to be a finalist. It's exciting. At first I was nervous, but as the questions went on I relaxed. I prepared for the competition by watching videos on the ITZA website and also by researching outside. I've become very interested in big cats since starting this quiz, but now I'm trying to learn more and more."

Sofía Gascó said: "I am very happy to be a finalist, because I have worked hard and I have given the best version of myself. Watching the videos on ITZA and reading information about felines I have learned a lot and I like them more and more.

"Thanks to this competition I have realised how important felines are. When I was selected for this competition I was very excited and wanted to give my best and now I am a finalist. I am looking forward to the 9th of December."

Education Director Oanh Crouch said: "Our schools are enthusiastic participants in the WWF Wild Wisdom Quiz – many of whom go through to compete in the national finals. It truly reflects the passion our students have for wildlife and the natural world. We are extremely proud of Pablo and Sofía for their success in representing their school in the global final stage of the WWF Wild Wisdom Quiz. Good luck to these two young students. All of Globeducate are all behind you!”
