Our gardening CCA has been running since January 2018. It was put together originally by the PTA and it grew from strength to strength with many students gaining 'green fingers' and learning about how easy it is to care for plants.

Our gardening CCA has been running since January 2018. It was put together originally by the PTA and it grew from strength to strength with many students gaining 'green fingers' and learning about how easy it is to care for plants. We have grown many plants and flowers over the months in our self-built bedding boxes and also created our very own caterpillar plant holder. We really wanted to create something special to remind everyone what joy gardening can bring. The students came up with the idea to paint a garden mural which they designed, drew, and painted. We then created invites to invite our heads of school to a finale garden picnic to unveil the wall. The picnic was completed with our homegrown tomatoes in sandwiches and a homemade chili and mint chutney. It has been a fantastic CCA to be a part of and I have loved working with Paul Adamson who is the real 'green fingers' amongst us. Please do pop along to the front of Team Falcon building, where you will see our hard work first hand and don't forget to sign up to our club in the new year.

Deputy Year 3 Group Leader
The British International School Abu Dhabi (BIS Abu Dhabi) was deeply honoured to welcome Her Highness Sheikha Shamma Bint Sultan Bin Khalifa Al Nahyan to its campus on Thursday, 17 April 2025. Her Highness, President & CEO of the UAE Independent Climate Change Accelerators (UICCA) and The Climate Tribe, is a distinguished entrepreneur, thought leader, and researcher with a deep commitment to sustainability, climate change, and gender equity.
At The British International School Abu Dhabi, we believe that education is not just about academic success—it’s about nurturing compassionate, responsible young people who understand the importance of giving back. This Ramadan, I have been truly moved by the way our students have embraced the spirit of the holy month, demonstrating kindness, generosity, and a genuine commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.
Inspired by the latest Nord Anglia INSIGHTS article exploring why the Early Years are the most important years of a child’s education, we know that a child’s most significant learning happens during this time - in ways that are not always immediately visible.
