Last week, Year 4 completed their independent writing as they wrote a setting narrative.
Using inspiration from ‘The Whale’ by Ethan and Vita Murrow, they used writing techniques such as fronted adverbials, modified noun phrases, similes and metaphors to plan, draft and publish incredibly atmospheric pieces of work.
The children’s use of ominous and eerie language to describe the ocean setting displayed outstanding learning.

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!
