Hello and welcome to the blog of Griffin English Centre!

Have you ever heard of a creature that is part lionĀ and part eagle? Sounds crazy, right? But it’s real—well, sort of!

Let us introduce you to the griffin — the magical creature that gives our school its name!


šŸ§šā€ā™‚ļø What is a Griffin?

A griffinĀ (also spelled gryphon) is a mythical creature. That means it comes from myths, which are old stories told for fun or to explain the world a long time ago.

The griffin is half lionĀ and half eagle:

  • The bodyĀ of a lion 🦁 (strong, brave, powerful)

  • The head and wingsĀ of an eagle šŸ¦… (smart, fast, watches everything)

Pretty cool, right?

In old stories, griffins were guardians. They protected treasure, knowledge, and even kings! They were known for their wisdomĀ and strength.
