The children in Reception have been interested in Pirate play and have had a lot of fun playing pirates and their ‘mateys’. They have made treasure maps by crumpling paper and staining it with tea, very colourful parrots to sit on their pirate’s shoulders, eye-patches and swords to add to their role-play.
They have also been exploring the ideas of ‘floating’ and ‘sinking’, predicting and experimenting whether the objects they collected from outside and within their classroom would float or sink. We had some interesting conclusions from tour experiment when we found out that some objects that floated in the beginning of the experiment would sink to the bottom after a while.
The end of the term concluded with our Easter picnic. We had a lovely time outside where children brought in picnic food to share with their friends and family. Happy Easter everyone!

The British School of Beijing, Shunyi Campus offers the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), which is renowned for its active learning approach. This method is integral to early childhood education, providing young learners with a solid foundation for their future academic and personal development. At BSB Shunyi, active learning means children learn by doing — through a thoughtful blend of teacher-guided activities and independent exploration that develops both their academic skills and their love of learning.
The British School of Beijing recently hosted BritMUN 2025, a Model United Nations (MUN) event that highlights the exceptional organisational and leadership skills of our students. This year's conference was a remarkable success, attracting student delegates from many different schools across Beijing, including the British School of Beijing, the International School of Beijing, Dulwich College Beijing, and Beijing World Youth Academy.
