On Friday 17 August we had a very successful LEAP Fair. The students and the parents had an opportunity to meet the teachers, coaches and mentors of the different LEAP classes this semester.

We are delighted to share some images of a range of our new facilities that are in the very final stages of completion. We look forward to you visiting many of them in person over time to see how they are adding great value to the educational opportunities Northbridge students receive.

We are excited to share the new developments in our athletics program for this year. Northbridge has partnered with the International School of Ho Chi Minh City to create a new sports league, the ASEAN Sports & Activities Conference (ASAC).

Summer is often a time for rest and relaxation which means it is time to shake off the cobwebs and get ready for another great year of PHE.

Research shows that reading to a child is the single most important thing you can do to support your child’s education.

Northbridge International School Cambodia Dance Teacher Ms Yabei recently visited The Juilliard School in New York to discuss our dance programme and new Dance Studio.

Northbridge International School Cambodia students have once again achieved strong results in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme for the 2017/18 academic school year. Northbridge’s average score this year is more than three points higher than the IB global average, widening the gap between ourselves and other IB schools around the world.

In collaboration with UNICEF, secondary school students from Nord Anglia Education, the world’s leading premium schools organisation, have converged in New York City for seminars, debates and speaking opportunities, including presentations at the High Level Political Forum at the Headquarters of United Nations.

Beginning Friday 27 April, running for five consecutive weeks, Northbridge school counsellors Ms Alison and Mr Dave held a popular parenting course for parents whose children attend the school.

As we approach the summer break, one of the best ways you can continue to support your child's academic development is through encouraging them to read and making shared reading a part of your holiday routine.

Using the term STEAM versus STEM continues to be an ongoing debate among educators. In his article, NAE-MIT Program Regional Lead for Southeast Asia, Jack Cooper, tells us the importance of having the A in STEAM.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you put about two hundred middle school and high school students in a few classrooms and told them to debate world issues and try to figure out solutions for them? At NISCMUN, the first MUN Conference in Nord Anglia Education, you would get educated debate and solutions that would work in the real world.

Our Nagas athletes traveled to Ho Chi Minh City this past weekend to represent us at the ISHCMC swim meet. The team of 21 swimmers spanned from Kindergarten to Grade 9 making us so proud as they raced against 400 competitors from Southeast Asia.

It has been encouraging to see how students in Grade 5 have risen to the challenge of the PYP Exhibition. They have spent time finding out their passion, how this links to a global issue and what their creative expression will be around this issue.

In April, our Early Learning 2 programme moved from being a half-day programme to a full day programme. This change was welcomed by our parents and our students and it has been wonderful to see how our youngest students have adapted to the change. Here are some thoughts from Ms Natalie our EL2 teacher.

An educational fair for more than 200 Cambodian Children's Fund (CCF) children was held on Saturday 28 April at Northbridge International School Cambodia (NISC).

This week we have returned to a range of activities and events across the school. This began with our MRISA Senior Football competition. On Thursday we had a visiting clarinet player from Juilliard for the day and then our Korean Cultural Day. In addition our Grade 12 students have been preparing for their final exams which begin today. We wish them well.

The programme of inquiry in a PYP school is an overview of all of the units of inquiry in every grade level organised under the transdisciplinary themes.

On Thursday 26 April, as part of our collaboration with The Juilliard School in New York, Northbridge International School Cambodia is proud to welcome visiting Australian-Israeli clarinetist Eloise Merav Fisher.

Today we come to a short break in our Semester and the beginning of Khmer New Year. Today and yesterday we have celebrated in classrooms and around the school finishing with our whole school enjoying a performance of Khmer traditional New Year dancing.
