Peer Mentoring Programme
A safe space for our younger students (mentees) to reflect, feel heard and be supported.
A growing opportunity for the older students (mentors) to be empowered with leadership skills.
The Peer Mentoring Programme was founded in 2019 by Ms Ford, the Deputy Head of Secondary Care and Guidance Leader, and Mr Randall, our then Drama teacher and Programme Coordinator. Currently, we have a total of 28 trained mentors across Year 10 and Year 13. These mentors and their mentees meet regularly to discuss the mentees' goals and concerns, supporting them with suitable strategies for each situation. With their new skillset as a mentor, they have created and will continue to make a tremendous positive impact in our community!
In next week's newsletter, you will learn more about the origins of this flourishing programme, and how subsequently it created another dimension to the learning experience we provide here at BISB.
Stay tuned to peek into more exciting behind-the-scenes stories about this programme!

On Monday, Year 6 had an exciting and unexpected visitor—a general from Hua Mulan’s army (played by Mr. Brown). The students were captivated as a letter from Mulan herself was read aloud, informing them that their enlistment in her army was required.
On Wednesday morning, Year 6 embarked on another adventure with a thought-provoking trip into the woods.
Year 8 Sapphire is raising awareness of sustainability as part of their Service-learning project.
We are excited to announce that if your child is in Years 1-3 you will soon be able to sign your child up for our first Spring Camp coming in April from Monday 14th to Thursday 17th.
