Last week, our excited Year 8's spent their morning getting creative with Waves. As part of their Year 8 topic of learning Waves, Students worked together in their different classes to create their very own wave machine.
These were entirely made of kebab sticks, marshmallows and duct tape. The wave machines do a fantastic job of helping students understand some key concepts of waves and how changes in wave energy affects the wave itself.
The different class groups ended the session by bringing their individual wave machines, each roughly 2m long, together to create the schools longest ever wave machine! Although we failed to make it span the length of the entire corridor, we were very pleased with the effort put into the task by the Students, and surprisingly only a small amount of marshmallows were lost to temptation.
We’re thrilled to announce that Nord Anglia Education is continuing its partnership with UNICEF for another three years! Since 2017, this unique collaboration has provided incredible opportunities for our students to engage in meaningful social impact initiatives that raise awareness of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), helping foster empathy, social advocacy, and global citizenship in all our classrooms.
Turkan, Tia, and Renad – our student Social Impact team – returned from Houston in June. The final part of their Houston experience was to provide feedback to the school’s senior leaders about what they had learnt during the UNICEF training and to propose their ideas for change.
EDIB stands for Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging. At The British International School Abu Dhabi, we are committed to giving our students an experience that is inclusive and representative of all nationalities, genders, abilities and religions. In essence EDIB is an extension of our school’s core values: Kindness, Honesty and Respect.
