Our under 11 FOBISIA squad have arrived in Phuket and are currently resting before 3 days of tough competition against some outstanding schools from across South East Asia.
Students not in Year 11 or Year 13 may have enjoyed a long holiday but they are now back at school and should begin planning their revision for the end of year exams.
School libraries should be places of opportunity; learning hubs where students can access the latest information, helping them to succeed in a global, competitive economy.
Year 4 and Year 5 set off this week on their respective residential visits to Ba Vi and Cuc Phuong. With a mixture of trepidation and excitement the children were waved off by parents on Tuesday and Wednesday morning.
Phase 3 invited parents, staff and pupils to their exhibition on the second floor this morning. It was a wonderful showcase of all the learning that has been taking place over the last term. There were Musical performances, presentations, puppet shows, art activities to name but a few. Our knowledge of rivers was put to the test with a ‘Rivers loop game’, meanwhile in 5B some students had gone missing and been replaced by Mr. and Mrs. Twit from the Roald Dahls classic, the Twits.
This week we were very lucky to receive an invite to the Secondary IB Art Exhibition.
This is an exhibition showcasing the final projects and works of Year 12 and 13 children.
In term II, BIS Hanoi's intrepid Biology & Geography students from Year 12 made the short journey to Ba Vi national park to soak up the sunshine and learn some valuable skills out in the 'field'.
With their colourful stalls set up, trading began; the proceeds of this project will be donated to the Tam Dao Bear Project which they will visit next week.
At BIS, we are always looking to provide students with opportunities to make links with others outside our BIS community. This helps to develop global perspectives and to understand a different culture.
The Whole School Science Assembly took place this morning and was led by the Secondary Science Department to mark the end of British Science Week 2018.
