DVAC U19 Girls Volleyball – CHAMPIONS!
Our KS4/5 girls woke up very early to travel to Bratislava for the annual DVAC U19 Girls Volleyball Tournament last Saturday. After a short nap the soundtrack of Mamma Mia helped energise the team and as a result, the girls were unstoppable for the rest of the day. They played with passion and grit and won all their matches. BISB became DVAC champions again, defending their title.
In the Year 9 Hungarian Literature lessons students have been learning about the poetry of Endre Ady, the famous early 20th century Hungarian poet. As part of our topic, on 8th November we visited Ady Endre Emlékmúzeum.

Monday got off to an exciting start with the launch of the BISB Maths Week Code Breaking competition. At the time of writing, over 248 different entries have been received from staff, parents and students and the level of ingenuity shown has been absolutely outstanding. The winners of each of the three categories will be announced at the beginning of next week, along with the solution to each of the five codes.
