We were super impressed by the quality of the submissions last year, as well as the thought and effort that had clearly gone into the creation of all artworks. Well done everybody! We are looking forward to bringing the competition back, bigger and even better this year.
As before, the shortlisted students from each age category will be submitted to our Global Campus for judging, with successful students having their artwork exhibited at the UNICEF office in New York during the United Nation's High Level Political Forum in July 2023.
However, every student is a winner, as any student who enters a high-quality piece of artwork for the competition, can also submit it as evidence for their BISAD Diploma to receive potentially a Bronze, Silver or Gold Award for their ‘Arts’ or ‘Leadership’ category and will also receive 5, 10 or even 15 house points for their efforts.
The theme for this year’s competition is Sustainable Development Goal 4 – Quality Education. Please click this link to see the resources and useful links that were shared with students earlier this week, supporting them to login into our Global Campus, learn about SDG: 4 and get inspired!
The competition has been launched now, so that students have time to get inspired and can make use of the February and Spring Break holidays to produce some impressive artworks.
The deadline for submission of student artworks to their Head of Year is 11th April. We can’t wait to see what imaginative and skillful artworks they come up with!

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.
