The quality of work produced by the year group as a whole was outstanding and we therefore felt we needed to celebrate their achievements.
The eleven students below received Principal’s commendations for their exceptional efforts producing scrapbooks, videos and even 3D models:
As well as the above, a large number of students were also awarded with Head Teacher Commendations.
Freyha Khogali in 7S explains below how she constructed her project, and why she enjoyed the process:
“What?” I said when I found out; what was I going to do?
‘’Last summer, Year 6 were told that they were completing an introductory project and we could display it in any format we wished. Through the first week of school, I decided on a scrapbook.
However, when I found out that we were completing poems about ourselves in English as well as ‘Slam Poetry’ in Languages, my idea expanded into a poem book. I found ways to change subjects- for example, I turned a PSHE icebreaker into a poem about my classmates and BISS Puxi. In between these were pictures of myself. This was an enjoyable experience, even though it was difficult. It was a challenge to come up with ideas, but when it was completed and you could say “mine was chosen!”, a proud feeling came’’.
We would like to say a huge well done to every Year 7 student who worked hard for this project.
Your fantastic efforts have been recognised and you have shown us what you can do!
Holly Mitchell, Head of Year 7
On Friday 26 April, Year 9 students were taken on an interactive, immersive and educational experience, in which they were able to take an A – Z look at chocolate production, taking them from bean to bar!
The BISS Ball, held at the W Hotel in Shanghai, was a dazzling affair, combining elegance with purpose. As guests entered the venue, they were greeted by the enchanting ambience that set the tone for a fantastic fundraising evening.
Year 9 students and a very brave Year 12 embarked on a new adventure on the 25 April. Accompanied by two members of the French department, they explored the Former French Concession around Fuxing Park to discover the history and some of the stories of the time when the French thought they could, perhaps settle, in Shanghai.
This year’s NAE-UNICEF Student Summit will take place in Houston, Texas, from 12 to 19 June 2024. We are thrilled to announce that the following three students have been selected to represent BISS Puxi at the summit: Tianyu, Jaeyoon and Salma!
