The COBIS Student Achievement Awards 2021 received nominations from outstanding students across the globe, yet it was one of their youngest nominees who stood above the rest.
To celebrate Earth day, 22nd April, the Eco-committee would like to challenge students, parents and teachers of BISB to think what they can do to reduce the food waste they produce and even try to grow some food from scratch.
This year's Global Campus Visual Arts competition gave children an opportunity to learn more about Climate Change. The Year 6 Extended Literacy class took the opportunity to think about which aspect of Climate Change was most important to them and what we should be doing to combat it. The children were then asked to depict this in a medium of their choice to illustrate their thoughts.
On Saturday 13th March, 12 of our Year 10 and Year 11 students competed in the challenging annual ISMTF (International Schools Maths Teacher Foundation) Junior Maths Competition.
The NCSS Challenge is a programming competition open to all school students and teachers. The Grok Learning website team, based in Australia, have been running coding competitions like the challenge for over 12 years.
This year we are running a really special summer camp at BISB. In collaboration with the British Theater School in Manchester, we are offering a Summer Drama Camp led by native English speakers and British actors.

Students in Year 8 are being ambitious in their use of Minecraft in History this month to extend their understanding of the Slavery and Abolition topic they have been studying.
This year's Global Campus Comic Book Competition focused on students using their creativity, imagination and innovation in inventing solutions to combat climate change.
As the first MIT-STEAM Challenge of the year lifted off, the prospect of being virtual did not affect our students. Thanks to their ingenuity and Minecraft Education, they were able to create new objects/processes to allow life in space to continue as normal (as normal as you can be in low gravity) for those participating in sport, art or preparing food.
Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V is reputed to have said, “I speak in Latin to God, Italian to Women, French to Men, and German to my Horse.“ We can question his attitudes to gender politics and equine husbandry, but there’s no doubt Charles V was a successful language learner, as at home in the salons of Siena as in the stables of Schleswig-Holstein.
How lovely to have the students back in school! The corridors are buzzling, everywhere you can hear laugh and chit chat. In our last Year 7 German lesson we’ve tried to catch a bit of the Christmas spirit in our lesson by learning new things about Christmas and German Christmas vocabulary.
Our students achieve more than they may have thought possible. We believe there is no limit to what students can achieve socially, personally and academically. This year, our students’ academic results reflect our shared commitment to excellence.
