International Day 2018 - Friday 19th October
It is just two weeks to go to International Day 2018 on Friday 19th October!
A huge thank you to everyone – parents, staff and students for all your efforts in preparation for what is without doubt one of the highlights of our school year.
This year’s International Day promises to be better than ever. As well as our 51 nationalities represented in the Parade of Nations, we currently have a fantastic total of 28 countries featuring in our Country Rooms, Global Food Court and our new for 2018 ‘International STEAM fair’.
We know our students are busy getting their national costumes ready and honing their performances for the Culture Show; whilst parent groups are preparing their Country themed activities.
We appreciate that not everyone is able to participate in the morning’s activities, so we would like to extend an invitation to all parents to join the PTG and all the International Day volunteers for a live screening of the Culture Show and Fashion Show in our refurbished Cafeteria from 12:45 on Friday 19th.
All are welcome to join this celebration of our multicultural BIS community.
If would you like to get involved in any of the country activities contact the Secondary PTG at secondaryptg@bisvietnam.com
