BIS Abu Dhabi students were super busy across the Holy Month of Ramadan carrying out random acts of kindness and spreading the joy throughout their communities.

Many students took on the challenge of completing the BIS Abu Dhabi Ramadan 30 Day Challenge, which encouraged students and staff to complete a kindness challenge every single day for 30 days.

Challenges included car washing, picking up litter, handing out cakes and treats to neighbours, holding doors open, packing shopping for people in supermarkets, talking to someone new in school, donating colouring books to children’s hospitals and donations to Red Crescent along with many, many more. These caring acts not only spread lots of joy around our communities, but they also gave the students the opportunity to achieve Bronze, Silver, and Gold on their BISAD Diplomas and win points for their House!

In addition, many thanks to parents and students for your generosity in donating toiletries to our own BIS Abu Dhabi community. There were so many amazing donations which were organised and divided into well over 100 gift bags for all the fabulous men and women that support BIS Abu Dhabi. A selection of students handed these out to the security staff, cleaning staff, maintenance team and the bus drivers which were greatly appreciated by all. There were lots of smiling faces and happy people around!
