Mr Sean O Neill Weekly Update - 14th October 2022

Dear Parents and Students,

Over the years, our BIS International Day has been the occasion when the wonderful diversity and energy of our multicultural, international community is most clearly expressed. In typical BIS fashion, our students, parents and teachers came together today to make sure International Day 2022 was the biggest, boldest, most creative and colourful yet!

Mr Ian Battersby Weekly Update - 14th October 2022

As we reach the end of the first half-term of the 2022-2023 academic year, it provides us with an opportunity to reflect on what we have accomplished over the last two months. We are also coming to the end of our focus on ‘Care’, so in assembly this morning, we took time to think about how much care we have seen at the Early Years and Infant Campus since the start of the year.

What a difference a year makes! This time last year, we were heading into Half Term albeit virtual. Our community, like this year, were looking forward to the break from school but travel was still restricted and strict Covid protocols remained in place.

The IPC at BIS - Capturing Curiosity and Celebrating Learning

When you reflect on your own childhood and school experiences, what memories come to mind? Memories of fondness, pride or celebration? Or do you cast your mind back to moments of dread and embarrassment? Hopefully, it’s the former over the latter but whatever your personal experience back then, you understand the significance of positive school experiences for your learners now.

One of the things I love about the BIS HCMC Community is that although we are proud of what we do, and what we achieve - we are always looking for small ways to make what we do even better.

Mr Sean O'Neill - Weekly Update 9th September 2022

Dear Parents and Students, I believe every school should have a vibrant culture of the arts at its core. Education in Drama, Music, Art and Literature brings benefits to each individual, each community, each culture. The arts not only develop our students’ empathic, aesthetic and analytical, problem solving skills within each discipline - they equip learners with the platform to excel in all aspects of their learning across the curriculum.

Mr Ian Battersby - Weekly Update 31st August 2022

One of the reasons that BIS is such a great place to learn is because there is such a strong sense of community. The pandemic has forced many information sessions to be online, but as we now learn to live with Covid, it has been super to see so many parents join us on campus for the three coffee mornings held across the primary campuses this week.
