At our International School of Granada, we believe there are achievements that go beyond visible results—those built with consistency, discipline, and an exemplary attitude. Today, we want to recognize the effort of our student Riki Freires Mariscal, who at just 15 years old is experiencing an especially prominent sporting moment.
A path built with daily work
Riki’s sporting successes are not the result of chance, but of many hours of training, sacrifice, and perseverance. His progress demonstrates that constant work, combined with a strong and committed mindset, is key to reaching ambitious goals both inside and outside the sporting arena.
Achievements that reflect dedication and self-improvement
In record time, Riki has managed to reach the podium in two highly relevant competitions: the Spanish Cup held in Cantabria and the Andalusian Ranking in Cádiz. These results are a reflection of a sustained process of effort, discipline, and personal growth—values that we actively promote at our school in Granada.
Sports and studies as a formative balance
Beyond his sporting successes, we want to highlight Riki’s ability to balance high-level sport with his studies. At our institute in Granada, we consider it fundamental for students to understand that academic training and personal development can advance hand in hand, reinforcing each other.
An example inside and outside the classroom
Riki stands out not only for his sporting results but also for his daily attitude at the center. He is a committed, responsible student and a great classmate—qualities that make him a positive role model for his peers and an example of consistency between academic and sporting effort.
Values learned through sport
Sport teaches lessons that go beyond competition: respect, consistency, effort management, and personal work. At our bilingual school in Granada, we understand sport as a fundamental educational tool for the integral development of our students.
Support from the educational center
As a bilingual institute in Granada, we accompany our students in their personal, academic, and sporting challenges, offering an environment where they can grow with support and guidance. Recognizing these achievements is also a way to reinforce motivation and confidence in their abilities.
Pride in accompanying this journey
From our school, we want to express the pride we feel for the path Riki is taking. Seeing how our students pursue their dreams with effort and commitment reaffirms our conviction that to educate is to accompany, guide, and celebrate every step of the process.
A message that inspires the entire community
Recognizing the effort that leaves a mark is also an invitation to the rest of the student body to believe in the value of constant work. At the International School of Granada, we will continue to focus on an education that forms committed, persevering individuals capable of reaching their goals.
