Congratulations to our delegation of two teams from BIS Abu Dhabi who attended the Global Round of the World Scholar’s Cup in Doha!

As I look out on the new road development that is happening directly outside my office, it helps me to reflect on the journey that has happened over the last twelve months. As a metaphor for schools ‘the road is always fascinating’, whether it is a change of direction, a fork or a bump in the road as well as being the driver or the passenger, this is the beauty of education, no route is the same.

Clocking off… In almost every one of my many years in education, people have suggested to me, usually sometime in June, that I must be looking forward to ‘winding down’ in the summer term.  Every teacher knows that the ‘End of Summer Term Wind Down’ is an urban myth…….it never happens!

STEAM Week in our Primary years was an incredible experience that left a lasting impact on students and staff. Exploring Global Goal 11 and focusing on local wildlife, sustainable transport, and emergency preparedness, the children's engagement and enthusiasm was exceptional.

After several weeks of practice walks and training days to prepare, students from Year 9, 10 and 11 jetted off to Switzerland on 21st June to take part in the 2023 Nord Anglia Advanced Trekking Expedition.

As we come to the end of another incredible school year, it's a perfect time to look back and reminisce on the many unforgettable moments that have made this year truly exceptional. From enriching curriculum experiences to heart-warming community events, the BIS Abu Dhabi community has come together to create lasting memories and celebrate remarkable achievements.

This Summer, we have 30 awesome challenges for you to complete! It’s super simple; try out as many of these fun bookish tasks as you can over the holiday.

As we approach the end of the academic year, we wanted to take a moment to remind you of the school schedule for the remainder of this term.

Our Year 5 & 6 students have been experiencing our different language options.

BIS Abu Dhabi was proud to host another amazing chess tournament between 7 schools:

Technology is an essential part of education at our school. To be able to live, learn, and work successfully in our information-rich society, students must be able to utilise technology effectively and therefore parents are required to ensure that their child has a suitable learning device in school to enhance their learning experience.

We are thrilled to share the outstanding achievements of our talented students who recently participated in the F1 in Schools event. Over the course of two exhilarating days, our school's four teams showcased their remarkable skills, innovation, and teamwork, leaving a lasting impression on everyone involved.

It’s been a wonderful week across the school with so many exciting events taking place. A number of those occasions have included the BISAD Diploma Awards Ceremonies where the Bronze, Silver and Gold achievers from this year’s cohorts were announced.

At BIS Abu Dhabi, we think learning is best when our students are enjoying themselves and we're always looking for exciting new ways to bring our subjects to life!

Father's Day, BISAD Diploma celebrations, Splash Days, House Shirt Day, Year 6 Disco, Primary Transition Day and let's not forget BISAD’s Got Talent! What a week; the calendar is always full of these magical moments, another example of why BIS Abu Dhabi is now the school of choice for so many families and why we are at waitlisted across so many different year groups for the next academic year.
