This week, Nursery children have been exploring colours via different activities.
They were engaged with colour mixing and creating new colours. They were so happy to share with their teachers - ‘I make jungle colour,’ ‘this is brown, for brown bear,’ ‘I added black in. It is darker.’ It has been great to see children fully experimenting with a range of colours and making links to the things they have known.
Across all five classes, we have also incorporated colours into physical activities. Using colour as a sign, the children changed from tiptoeing, and hopping, to sliding, crawling, and slithering – the children had so much fun and really loved it! Every day, with their friends or in their class, they went on this little adventure.
Some children fell interested in the colour pattern game, noticing the pattern and continuing the pattern. They also enjoyed looking through coloured shapes. They initiated different ways to test their ideas out - using the magnifier, stacking the shapes together, and putting the shapes in water. We had a ‘Colourful’ week!

Here, at BSB Sanlitun, we were pleased to host two weeks of visits of two Juilliard specialists from New York, across 3 full working days. Our Primary students got to experience a variety of lessons and teaching styles as Nick Mahmat and Brian Drye stepped into our classrooms and led music and drama activities.
What a wonderful day we had hosting our annual Chinese New Year Temple Fair on campus on Sunday. This great community event included games, a Lion Dance, Dragon Dance, a face changing performance, traditional crafts, a bouncy castle, food vendors and gift stalls.Thanks to everyone who made the event possible and magical!
