The PTA, in coordination with the Senior Service leaders group, Animal Aces, will be running an animal welfare awareness campaign throughout the school this month.
The campaign will kick off with an Animal Welfare Coffee Morning on Tuesday 17th April at 8:00am.
During the coffee morning, students will highlight the plight of Abu Dhabi's stray cats and the amazing work of some of the volunteer groups who manage the problem. The volunteer groups are self-funded, and are in desperate need of support. By us raising money to buy them cat food we would enable the groups to focus their finances on neutering the strays, the most humane way of managing the problem. There will be a prize draw on the 17th of April, with tickets available to purchase at 20D HS each. Every 57 DHS raised will buy 7KG's of cat biscuits!
In addition, from the 29th of April to the 3rd of May, there will be a competition for which class can bring in the most boxes of cat food. Collected boxes will be distributed directly to the animal welfare groups for their feeding and neutering program.
Please help us support these great local volunteer groups this month for this very worthy cause.
BIS Abu Dhabi PTA
As we draw this academic year to a close, I want to take a moment to reflect on what has been a truly remarkable journey for The British International School Abu Dhabi. This year has been defined by so much more than achievement, it has been a year of resilience, creativity, compassion, and bold ambition.
Read on to discover the unforgettable highlights, proud achievements, and inspiring moments that made this year at BIS Abu Dhabi truly remarkable.
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.
