The gavel has come down on the 6th Annual NISCMUN conference! After months of hard work and planning by the student executive team and school staff at Northbridge International School Cambodia, we can safely say that we have hosted a conference we can be proud of.
Many events have occurred this year at Northbridge International School Cambodia that have been missing for a few years, parents in classrooms for meetings, packed audiences for our Secondary production, International Day, numerous sports events, overseas cultural trips and countless local field trips. All these events have one thing in common, an opportunity for new experiences.
