Students were challenged to design a computer game to raise awareness of current environmental issues such as water pollution and plastic waste. After designing and building their game, our teams delivered a presentation to the judges in which they explained their concept and process.
The competition provided our students with the opportunity to work collaboratively and apply their coding skills to solve real-world problems. More than this though, it was just good fun and the students enjoyed the experience immensely.
Adithya and Oliva from Year 6A created a game with the aim to get your fish to his beloved wife fish in the corner, while avoiding the plastic pollution. Click here to see their game.
Imad and Rania from Year 6D created a game to use the left and right arrows to collect the falling trash. Click here to see their game.
Sami and Jade from Year 6C created a game where the user collects plastic water pollution. Click here to see their game.
We eagerly await the results!
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.
