Year 3 enjoyed an exciting field trip to the China Museum of Science and Technology on 19th April, 2023. This was a great opportunity for students to reinforce all of the scientific knowledge and theory that they’d been learning throughout the year so far and see some of it in action.
The museum included green energy and conservation, where displays showed renewable energy and recycling. In the physics area students could review what they’d learned about forces in term 1. The robotics and space rooms showed students a glimpse of the future while the biology area fit in well with our current topic on Under the Sea!
Highlights of the trip included a robot that mimics your movements, a virtual reality experience and exploring forces through different small experiments.
Here’s what some of our students learn about the trip!
“I learned that robots can interact with humans now.“
“I could see how far sound can travel”
“My favorite part of the museum was the virtual reality machine because I’ve always wanted to try this.”
When discussing how we could use what we’d learned to help the current ocean problems: “We could design a robot fish to help us clean the ocean of plastic“

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.
