BIS HCMC have had the pleasure of working with Binh Tho School for the past 5 years. Binh Tho children visit us throughout the year and take part in a number of different activities with our students, such as: F3 playdates, Project Impact (Secondary), Friendship club and Busy Hands (Junior).
It was the week they had been waiting for! 4 students from BIS HCMC flew all the way to Boston to join 25 other Nord Anglia Education students for STEAM Week @ MIT - a unique, five-day long event packed with STEAM-related challenges, learning and adventure at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
It’s one of the biggest events in NAE’s calendar - STEAM Week @ MIT kicked off this weekend on 29th April! An interesting fact unknown to many about MIT is its motto, “mind and hand”, or Mens et Manus in Latin. We would like to share a blog post by Mark Orrow-Whiting, Nord Anglia Education’s Director of Curriculum and Student Performance, on why he believes the “mind and hand” philosophy is integral to NAE’s STEAM curriculum, which has been enhanced in a collaboration with the university.

On Wednesday 28th March 2018, our student-gymnasts represented BIS HCMC in the annual BIS Invitational Gymnastics competition. There were over 50 competitors from BIS, BVIS and ISHCMC performing in both floor and vault routines, levels ranging from 1-4.
The instinctive reaction, of a teacher on lunchtime duty in the canteen, upon seeing a Year 6 child skipping, is to remind them of their behavioural responsibilities. However, when that child happens to be a Year 6 girl called Kathy, whose skipping is inspired by the barely containable pride of one who has just achieved a great success on behalf of the school, the correct reaction is to understand and smile.
Wow! It has been a whole year since Language in Focus was launched at BIS Primary. We have already learnt about Polish, German, Malay, Thai and now Korean. It has been so much fun exploring lots of different cultures.
There was confusion in Year 2 this week as the classroom chairs went on strike due to the fact that they didn’t think the children were treating them very well! The children soon realised their mistakes and wrote letters back to the chairs to get them to return to the classrooms so the children could continue to use them! Read more about how this strange situation unfolded...
