This week I have observed a sense of joy as families have been purchasing the yearbook. This book is a collection of moments shared with friends, families and teachers and signifies a completely different experience to the last few years.
All these great moments are created by caring practitioners who recognise the importance of human connections, the value of ensuring the school environment engages beyond the academic and the sense of joy and happiness that everyone feels.
At the end of each academic year, we have a number of staff moving on. I want to take this opportunity to thank all colleagues who have supported our youngsters through their journey. To work in a school environment is not always easy, it is a fast paced, energetic and an ever-changing space. The school environment needs to adapt to provide for the children, all of whom are different, all unique and all with their own challenges a place to flourish. To our teachers, staff and colleagues: thank you.
“A good educator is like a candle; it consumes itself to light the way for others”
I am also aware lots of our families are now making plans for Eid Al Adha, I wish you all a safe and blessed break, look after each other and keep each other safe. Eid Mubarak.

In 2014, Mrs. Lowe arrived to teach at the British International School Abu Dhabi, excited to work with the Physical Education Department (PE) 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.
