We took our fourth walk relating to Hungarian literature in the Kerepesi/Fiumei road cemetery. The idea of a cemetery to hold the Nation’s greatest was brought about by Szechenyi Istvan in 1843, and quickly, in 1885, it became an ornamental cemetery. In 1956, it was given the National Pantheon title and had been a part of National Heritage since 2016.
Many outstanding Hungarian history and literature figures are buried here, with about 1500 protected memorials. Despite the cold weather and rain, our group remained enthusiastic about taking a look at the graves of visiting graves relating to our syllabus, for example, Ady, Arany, Babits, Faludy, Karinthy, Kosztolanyi or Vorosmarty. Under our umbrellas, our tour guide gave us an insight into the personal lives of the poets and writers and showed us musical versions of significant works.

Last week, Year 6 had the exciting opportunity to visit the Secondary Science Labs to explore the fascinating phenomenon of plasma. Using plasma balls, students experimented with focusing energy in specific directions and attempted to light different types of bulbs.
The Lunar New Year celebrations at BISB began with a lively and fun assembly hosted by Jason and Sonia. Their energy set the tone for the rest of the day, filled with activities that brought everyone together.
We are incredibly proud to share that Laura Ivánka (Year 9) has achieved a remarkable milestone by winning the Fourth Award at the prestigious Taiwan International Science Fair (TISF), representing BISB on a global platform.
Our EYFS children had an incredible time on their recent trip to the fire station! They were thrilled to meet real-life firefighters and learn all about their important work.
