May I begin by wishing all students, parents and your wider families a wonderful holiday as it approaches at the end of this week. This is a special time to be relaxing and enjoying the company of friends and family, as well as looking forward to what the New Year holds.
This has been an extremely successful term for the BIS Abu Dhabi students. The first part of success of course was the fact that the school was able to reopen fully for all students from the very first day. All the safety measures such as mask-wearing and social distancing have still been closely followed, yet having all students in their classes with their teachers has been so wonderful to see. I know that for all the staff here it was just so nice to feel like we had our school back again!
The students of course have been amazing. At all levels we see great progress in learning, demonstrating again how effective we all worked together, at school and at home, to support the students through the pandemic. I would also commend all the new students who have joined this term as they have adapted so well to their new surroundings. It has also been fantastic to be able to expand the wider provision and offer a CCA Programme as well as special events such as Kindness Day or National Day.
My thanks to all the parents that continue to provide great support for their children’s learning, and also adapting to the various regulations. It was great that we were also able to relaunch our parent coffee mornings this term and so nice to see so many of you there. More will follow next term.
This time of year is often described as a time of peace and goodwill, though of course that should surely be all times of year. With the greatest of goodwill from the BIS Abu Dhabi staff to all our community, we wish you a very peaceful break ahead and look forward to seeing you back in school in January.

Earlier in June, a group of our IB students jetted off to Iceland for an unforgettable adventure. Damian Toader from 12A shares his experience of this incredible trip, capturing the essence of Iceland's breathtaking landscapes and unique natural phenomena through his lens as the group's photographer.
Dear Parents,
As we approach the end of this term and the academic year, we take great pride in celebrating the multitude of successes our children have achieved. This period has been filled with events showcasing the diverse talents and interests of our students here at BIS Abu Dhabi. From the creativity of our dance performances, our success at sports competitions to the incredible ongoing school trips, from the talent displayed at the BISAD’s Got Talent audition and our Open Mic sessions to the World Scholars Cup and the Quran reading, our calendar has been brimming with opportunities for our students to shine.
