During this time of remote learning during the Northbridge International School Cambodia Virtual School Experience, we have had to upend accepted norms around screen time for children.

Necessity is said to be the mother of invention, and I think it safe to say the sudden shift from classroom to computer screen made inventors of us all at Northbridge International School Cambodia.

When faced with the challenge of moving to remote learning in EL3 at Northbridge International School Cambodia, we wanted to ensure that we could still provide the children and their families with a sense of continuity and structure to their school day. We have done so by continuing to offer all children with daily play-based, purposeful and practical learning experiences to complete at home.

The challenges of the virtual school experience are inescapable. Students and teachers at Northbridge International School Cambodia have been walking a steep learning slope for the last 2 months with successes and failures but always with the most positive attitude to make this a meaningful experience where everyone learns and benefits. Let’s take a look at some amazing work and projects that our students are working on or already completed and finish with the reflections from teachers about this experience.

In recent years, including at Northbridge International School Cambodia, education has seen a trend in moving away from the traditional subject specific classroom tasks and assessments and into a more interdisciplinary approach to learning.

Even with having our music classes virtually, music has still been remarkably good at bringing us together and being a creative outlet for students. There are certainly challenges, however it is beautiful to see Northbridge International School Cambodia students (and parents, and even pets sometimes!) enjoying music at home. Read on to see the unique ways that our students are still singing, composing, and playing instruments.

Although meeting face to face on our Northbridge International School Cambodia campus is a far more ideal learning environment, our students have met current challenges with a positive attitude and adapted well to a virtual learning environment. They have utilised resources at home and their surrounding environment to explore visual arts.

The world as we knew it, including at Northbridge International School Cambodia, changed rapidly due to Covid-19. At the same time I noticed a change on my social media feeds. More and more people were sharing music; their ten most influential albums, links to videos of their favourite songs, and homemade videos of amateurs and professionals performing.

We wanted to share with just some of the exciting new activities Nord Anglia Education has planned for Global Campus, our platform connecting our 66,000 students across 29 countries around the world, including at Northbridge International School Cambodia.

We know that Northbridge International School Cambodia students and families are very busy keeping up with their regular classwork, but we also know that many of our Makers, Coders, Scientists and Engineers are really missing their time in the Makerspace!

Hi Northbridge International School Cambodia community! Do you need a switch-off? Do you want to give your mind a rest? Do you have a lot of jumbled up thoughts and feelings? Do you need a mental escape from the ‘now’ by just ‘being’ and not overthinking?
