Student Council members and a small group of Upper Primary students were given the pleasure to attend a presentation and Q&A session with Mrs Viola Di Canossa, from the United Nations Development Programme, here in Beijing.
Mrs Di Canossa spoke with the students about the Sustainable Development Goals, and learned about what actions the students are taking both at school and at home to promote these important initiatives! Council members asked insightful questions about the history of the SDGs and progress to date, as well as more broadly about the United Nations, demonstrating both their curiosity and personal interest in taking action to see the Goals achieved.
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!
