We are thrilled to introduce BISAD BUDDIES, a dynamic Friendship Nurture Group designed exclusively for our Primary students. 

Why BISAD BUDDIES?

Building Strong Friendships: Fostering healthy friendships is at the heart of BISAD BUDDIES. Our programme is tailored to help students form and maintain positive connections, creating a more vibrant and supportive school environment.

My name is Caleb Questel. I have relocated from the UK, and I am very excited to take on the role of School Counsellor here at BIS Abu Dhabi. I am an experienced Social Worker with specialist expertise in Learning Disabilities and Mental Health. Within social work, I have always championed the use of psychosocial interventions. I consider these to be a key component of counselling, as a means of bringing meaningful change in the lives of those I work with.

It's always a joy to share what's happening at BIS Abu Dhabi, especially during this exciting first term. We have so much to talk about, reflecting the vibrant life of our Primary and Secondary school.

We are thrilled to announce Aarav FS1C's remarkable achievement of being one of the winners at The National Young Authors' Fair – UAE, along with the publication of his book 'The Mystical Mind'. 

My name is Liz Ann Mathew, I am originally from India, and I am delighted to be joining BIS Abu Dhabi as a school counsellor. I am a Professional Social Worker specialised in Medical and Psychiatric Social Work with over 16 years of experience. I am a member of Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) and Social Work England (SWE).

Equipped with spades and curiosity, Year 3 have been unearthing pieces of history right here at BIS Abu Dhabi.

We are delighted to be partnering with Al Jazira Club who will be hosting football trainings at our school.

Our students are making waves as they embark on an exciting journey to explore the incredible properties of water!

As I experience my first start of a new academic term here at BIS Abu Dhabi, I am also getting my first opportunity to write a message in the newsletter. I want to open by extending a warm welcome to all new and returning families as we embark on this exciting journey together.
