Our Year 5 and 6 students have returned from the U11 Federation of British International Schools in Asia (FOBISIA) Games in Thailand with an outstanding collection of medals, achievements, and unforgettable experiences.
A team of 23 Primary School Years 5-6 students travelled from Singapore to compete against leading British international schools across Asia, taking part in a week-long celebration of youth sport, teamwork, and international collaboration.
Outstanding Results Across All Sports
Throughout the week, students competed in athletics, swimming, tee-ball, and football, rising to the challenge of competing in hot and demanding conditions. At every stage, Dover Court students demonstrated not only athletic ability, but also exceptional sportsmanship, teamwork, and respect – values that sit at the heart of our school community.
Dover Court’s strong sporting programme was reflected in a superb set of results across all four disciplines:
Building Character Through Sport
While the medals and results are impressive, what truly sets Dover Court students apart is their character. Throughout the Games, our students were recognised by organisers and peers as some of the most respectful, friendly, and supportive participants.
As Ellie Woodcock, Head of Primary PE, shared: “We are incredibly proud of the children, not only for their sporting success, but also for the way they represented Dover Court off the field. They were consistently recognised as some of the most sporting, friendly, and respectful students at the Games.”
This reflects Dover Court’s philosophy of developing well-rounded learners, where sport plays a key role in nurturing leadership, empathy, and perseverance. This success would not have been possible without the dedication of our coaching team, who provided expert preparation and constant support throughout the Games.
We are also incredibly grateful to our parent community, whose encouragement and presence in Thailand created a fantastic atmosphere for our athletes. The support of our DCIS Wolves families continues to play a vital role in student success.
Inspiring Future Champions
Sport is an integral part of life at Dover Court. From Early Years through to Secondary School, students are encouraged to develop a lifelong love of physical activity while building skills that extend far beyond the playing field.
Opportunities like FOBISIA Games allow students to challenge themselves, work as a team and grow in confidence—experiences that stay with them well beyond Primary School.
For prospective families, it is a powerful example of how Dover Court International School nurtures not only academic success, but also personal growth, wellbeing, and excellence beyond the classroom. For our current families, it is yet another reminder of what our students can achieve through determination, support, and the strength of our community.
We are incredibly proud of every student who took part. They truly are exceptional ambassadors for Dover Court International School.
