Our Founder

Develop a passion for learning.
If you do, you will never cease to grow.
Anthony J. D'Angelo

Astor International School was founded by a mother of three kids, Ms Elena Holloway, who is passionate about learning and education. She is an entrepreneur with over 10 years of experience in business and 15 in finance. Elena has a Master's degree in Finance, a Bachelor's degree in Economics, and a Bachelor of Arts in International Business.

"As parents, we all want to nurture and empower our children, and to grow them to be life-long learners. We want to cultivate a sense of community in our children, with a healthy environment for learning.

A shorter school day enables children to explore thinking and learning through intentional programmes. Flexibility and affordability are important to us.

Keeping our school small, we are open to listen to every parent and to meet every child’s needs in terms of learning as well as scheduling.

We are immensely proud of our teachers, our students, programmes and the driving philosophy behind Astor."
