Each week, students in Year 5 and Year 6 have the opportunity to develop their leadership skills by listening to their younger peers read. Whilst the younger students share their books, the older students are able to model great reading habits, practice listening attentively and ask questions. It has been truly amazing to see how much joy sharing a story can spread!
Speaking about our love of reading... The BIS Abu Dhabi Book Club also took part in a delectable book tasting last week! The students in this CCA had the opportunity to sample a delicious tasting menu of high-quality texts, before deciding on the book that they wanted to explore in greater depth over the next few weeks - look at Our Literary Café! Very inviting!

In 2014 Mrs. Lowe arrived to teach at the British International School Abu Dhabi, excited to work with the Physical Education Department to implement and embed Dance within both the curriculum and the CCA programme. Schemes of work were created for FS1 to Year 9 and all PE teachers received professional development training to understand the fundamentals of Dance, to discover the importance of Dance and how movement can be creative and powerful.
Last week, Mrs. Stanier, our Head of Humanities, had the pleasure of accompanying three of our amazing students: Tia and Renad from Year 12, and Turkan from Year 10, to Houston, Texas, to take part in the NAE UNICEF summit. We were thrilled to be hosted by one of our Nord Anglia schools, The Village School in Houston, the first Child-Friendly City in the US recognised by UNICEF. The Village School is a boarding school, so the students got to experience what life was like as a boarding student there for the week.
