BIS Abu Dhabi will be performing a dance called ‘The Swimmers’ based on the real-life story of Syrian sisters who fled their country. They became refugees, took a boat to Europe and one of them reached the Olympics in 2016. The BSME Dance group have been inspired by this story to capture the crossing of the ocean in a dinghy to create a powerful and moving dance. We wish the dancers a fun weekend of dance styles during their workshop opportunities in African, Breaking, Hip Hop. Jazz, and Contemporary dance along with a successful group performance. Good luck.
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.
