World Kindness Day is a global celebration which promotes the importance of being kind to each other, to ourselves and to the world. Our amazing students at BIS Abu Dhabi are going to be spreading kindness even more than usual on this day.
We have lots of fun kindness-themed activities and surprises planned throughout the day for both Primary and Secondary students to make this a super special day – all of which you will find out about in our next newsletter!
For the moment, what we can share is that the students will be asked to come to school wearing yellow, the colour of kindness. We can’t wait!
“Because that’s what kindness is. It’s not doing something for someone else because they can’t, but because you can.” – Andrew Iskander
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.
The British International School Abu Dhabi, part of the Nord Anglia Education family, is proud to announce that three students have been selected to attend this year’s 2025 Nord Anglia Student Summit in Houston, Texas, a transformative leadership event focused on global citizenship, sustainability, and student-led innovation.
Read on to discover how these young changemakers will collaborate with peers worldwide to drive meaningful impact.
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.
