Each classroom was set up like one of the seven continents of the world. Students took their passports and travelled from one continent to the next, collecting their stamps as they went, to get a brief glimpse into what life is like around our wonderful planet. Children learned how to make (and eat!) Kimbap, how to play Ddakji, and how to write some Chinese symbols in Asia. Children built igloos and painted penguins in Antarctica. They created some aboriginal art in Australia as well as some pattern-making art in Africa! The children will be going into greater depth as we learn about each continent throughout our final term, but we hope this introduction day got them excited and ready to learn more!
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.
