Having experienced different living and working circumstances throughout this global pandemic, one thing it has made us all realise, is the importance of spending time away from our screens, and the benefits of regular exercise. As access to facilities and opportunities has been limited, many of us have turned to walking or running as a form of regular exercise.
We would like to offer our families the opportunity to join our new running club. The running club is for all ages, all abilities and for all of our BIS Abu Dhabi community. If you are currently walking with ambitions to start jogging/running, or you are running competitively, we want you to join!
The club would like to offer the opportunity to:
As the running club is community based, members will have the opportunity to shape and develop the club together to enhance the experience for everybody.
The running club encourages our families to get involved, if you are interested please complete the short form by clicking here and we will send more information.
The penultimate week of term always brings a mix of energy and reflection. Lessons are still purposeful, but there is also a sense of looking back, recognising just how far our students have come.
This year, we have seen strong academic success across the school. Students have worked hard, and the outcomes reflect that effort. But just as important have been the achievements beyond the classroom in music, sport, language, technology, and the arts. Our curriculum is broad for a reason, and it has been clear this year that our students are thriving in many ways.
Celebrating Our Shared Success: A Year of Partnership and Recognition
As we approach the end of a vibrant academic year filled with events, achievements, and memorable moments, I am delighted to share some fantastic news with you all. Our school has been honoured with not one, but two prestigious awards in recognition of our commitment to parent engagement: the MENA Parent Partnership Award and the ADEK Best Parent Engagement Award.
Read on to discover how these awards celebrate our collaborative culture, highlight parent-school partnerships, and support meaningful improvements for our students.
It’s something I’ve believed for a long time — that learning isn’t predetermined by our genes. It’s about growing, persevering, and learning through the process. I was really mindful of this idea at this week’s wonderful Primary Summer Concert, after which I found myself reflecting on whether these amazing children have an innate talent, or whether they have achieved so much because of hard work and practice.
I believe it’s the latter. These children, their parents, and their teachers all seem to share the belief that by trying and working hard, they will get better at what they do. This is what we call a growth mindset.
This week at BIS Abu Dhabi, we have had the joy of celebrating both ends of the school journey and it has been a beautiful reminder of how we support our students to dream big and grow into their future selves.
