I am honoured to serve as the Early Childhood Programme (ECP) Principal at Footprints International School, where I have the privilege of leading a dedicated team committed to nurturing curiosity, creativity, and a love of learning in our youngest students. Drawing on over 13 years of experience in early years and lower primary classrooms, along with a Master of Psychology in Child Development and ongoing doctoral studies in Educational Leadership, I continue to learn and grow alongside our children and educators. I am passionate about fostering an environment where children grow as Curious Explorers, Kind Listeners, and Brave Leaders. Together with families and educators, I aim to create a nurturing environment where every child feels safe, respected, and confident enough to reach for the stars!

Dear Footprints Community and Parents,
As Primary Programme Principal, I am honoured to lead our dedicated and caring Primary team. Now in my fifth year at Footprints, one of my greatest daily joys is connecting with our wonderful students. With a Certificate in School Management and Leadership from Harvard Business School Online, a Master’s degree in International Cultural and Business Studies from Passau University, and over 9 years of experience as a teacher and educational leader, I am passionate about student well-being, personalised learning, and strong family partnerships.
I am extremely proud of the ongoing enhancement of our Primary programme, in particular about last year’s introduction of the Komodo Wellbeing Program for Grade 5 to effectively monitor and support student well-being. Our reading and phonics curriculum together with our successful reading intervention program has also led to record-high literacy rates in the school year 2024-25, with over 50% of our students being secure in their grade-specific reading levels.
During this new school year 2025-26, I am excited about strengthening teacher collaboration and instructional practices through the approach of Trust Based Observations, about strengthening our students’ social-emotional learning with an even stronger focus on our well-established Jigsaw program and about expanding hands-on mathematical learning through investigations and projects, enabling our students to apply learned skills in real-world contexts.
I look forward to supporting you and your child on this enriching journey!
Sincerely,
Christine Guenster

As the new Vice Principal of the Primary Programme, I am excited to bring over 10 years of international experience to a community that truly puts students first. Throughout my journey in education, I have had the privilege of teaching and leading in diverse settings across Europe, Southeast Asia, and the UAE. These experiences have shaped my passion for inclusive, high-impact education and strengthened my belief that every child deserves to feel seen, supported, and inspired. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in International Education and am currently pursuing a Master’s in Educational Leadership. My mission is to create systems that allow our teachers to thrive in the classroom and our students to flourish in a safe, well-organised, and joyful learning environment. I am proud to join the dedicated team at Footprints and look forward to building a strong, connected school community together.

Dear Footprints Families and Community,

Welcome back to a new academic year! I’m thrilled to start my eighth year with you, inspired by the remarkable growth we witness each year. It is truly an honour to be a part of such a dedicated community.

Last year, we set out to empower student leadership. I’m incredibly proud to share that they have truly embodied what Footprints is all about: building a community of responsible, determined, and compassionate learners who make meaningful contributions to humanity. Their leadership was evident in their active involvement in Student-Parent-Teacher Conferences, their thoughtful selection of our new school mascot and logo design, their enthusiastic facilitation of inter-campus sports competitions, and their passionate dedication to community service activities. From river cleanups to building shelters, serving as hall monitors, and beyond, they’ve shown commitment to making a positive impact.

This year, we’ll place a strong emphasis on Socio-Emotional Learning for all grade levels, adopting the Wellbeing Curriculum from Cambridge which provides our students with the tools and strategies they need to navigate their emotions, build healthy relationships, and thrive in all aspects of their lives.

We’re also committed to strengthening the connection between our school and the wider community through Enhanced Service Learning and Community Service, Guest Speaker Integration and Strategic Involvement in Local and International Competitions.

By fostering a strong sense of community and providing our students with a well-rounded education, we’re preparing them to become the leaders and changemakers of tomorrow.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership.

As the Vice Principal of International Secondary Program at Footprints International School, I consider it both an honour and a responsibility to support our students, staff, and community in fostering a positive and dynamic learning environment. I am committed to promoting academic excellence, holistic development, and a culture of respect and collaboration. Together, we aim to nurture confident, responsible, and well-rounded individuals prepared for the future. I look forward to a wonderful School Year.
