Dance, an activity common to all cultures and as old as old can be, allows children at Northbridge International School Cambodia to simultaneously connect to a sense of unison and self-expression.
This week has been an exciting week for those of us interested in mathematics education at Northbridge International School Cambodia. We were honored to host educators not only from neighboring schools but also from across international borders for the Southeast Asia Maths Conference featuring Liz Gibbs.
During Primary education at Northbridge International School Cambodia, our students are beginning to form their identities and perceptions of the world, and the role of school counseling and Personal, Social, Health, and Economic Wellbeing (PSHE) education cannot be overstated. These two components play an important role in shaping the holistic social and emotional wellbeing of students whilst equipping them with essential life skills.
The world is changing, and so are educational philosophies at schools like Northbridge International School Cambodia. In the past (and in schools of lower quality today), schools were focused only on teaching knowledge and hard facts – trigonometry, electron shell configurations, important historical dates, etc., with the goal of passing standardized tests.
Theory of Knowledge (TOK) is a unique subject that not only equips Northbridge International School Cambodia students with critical thinking skills but also fosters a deeper understanding of the world around them. As parents, you play a crucial role in supporting your child's education and helping them make informed choices.
Held every year on 21 February, International Mother Language Day is observed worldwide - including here at Northbridge International School Cambodia - to promote linguistic and cultural diversity and multilingualism. The theme for this year is “Multilingual education is a pillar of intergenerational learning.”
As parents, we all want the very best for our children and their education. We strive to provide them with the tools and strategies that will empower them to navigate the challenges of learning and excel in their academic endeavors. Nevertheless, to thrive in life and prepare them for an uncertain future, it is imperative that Northbridge International School Cambodia students acquire knowledge beyond mere academics.
At Northbridge International School Cambodia, we recognise that lessons learned outside of the classroom are just as vital as the learning that takes place inside, with field trips to destinations around Phnom Penh held throughout the year, as well as special annual Action Learning Camps, known as ALCs.
