We are really pleased that we have been able to get swimming up and running again for our PE classes, LEAP and Bronze, Silver and Gold swim teams at Northbridge International School Cambodia.
The Aquatics team have been working hard to ensure a safe environment for all swimmers. Our students have been enthusiastic and actively participated in our PE swimming classes.
During the lessons, the students are being assessed to see which level they meet and what we can work on in order to improve their technique and fitness levels. We are very excited about our new Aquatics center and cannot wait to begin our swimming lessons in the new pool.
Swimming has been around for many years and is known as one of the best all-body workouts a person can do. It is a low-impact workout which means that it does not put stress on the joints, but at the same time, it involves all muscles.
Swimming has many benefits for your health. It is a great cardio-vascular workout which keeps your heart rate up, helping to make your heart and lungs stronger. Swimming helps in developing endurance as well as building muscle strength. It is appropriate for all ages and levels of fitness as well as ability.
Exercise in general improves your mood and helps to manage stress and swimming is no exception. For our Nagas team, swimming helps to develop a competitive spirit and determination to improve on their times. It has also created friendships between swimmers from different schools.
We look forward to continuing to provide a safe and fun environment for the students to learn about swimming and develop their own individual skills while staying healthy and keeping fit.
World Book Week is here, and at NISC and we've been diving headfirst into the enchanting world of stories! This year, our theme is "Reading is Magic," and it's been a week filled with wonder, imagination, and the sheer joy of books.
Action Learning Camps, or ALCs, are often cherished highlights of students' school years. Memories of playing team sports, roasting marshmallows, and sharing whispered conversations into the early hours of the morning leave lasting impressions. But ALCs are more than just fun—they're foundational experiences that support students’ growth in a number of ways.
We often associate gratitude with iconic moments, such as when our children are born healthy, we are offered a good job, a family member or pet survives an illness or operation, or when our children graduate from school. Events like these can be very moving and emotional, and sometimes even life changing. However, what if we made it a habit to include gratitude in our daily lives?
