Our Year 8 students are having a great time with their teachers and friends in Cat Ba!

The British International School IB Visual Arts Exhibition includes paintings, sculptures and photographs from our Year 13 students.

In term II, BIS Hanoi's intrepid Biology & Geography students from Year 12 made the short journey to Ba Vi national park to soak up the sunshine and learn some valuable skills out in the 'field'.

The Whole School Science Assembly took place this morning and was led by the Secondary Science Department to mark the end of British Science Week 2018.

Over the last two weeks in Primary assemblies, 4B and 5S have reinforced the importance of perseverance, not only in school but in life too. Ms Ower’s class told us the story of ‘The Tortoise and the Hare’ and cleverly adapted it to show how we can persevere even when storytelling. Today, 4B gave us some fantastic phrases to help keep us on track: keep going, don’t give up, step forwards, push yourself, everything is possible. In addition to these important messages, assemblies are a wonderful for opportunity for children to practise their speaking and presentation skills and it is wonderful to see our students doing so with such confidence and clarity.

Our Head of Primary reflects on an incredible first term of student achievements and progress at BIS Hanoi and wishes our families a happy holiday and New Year.

We follow the English National Curriculum for Literacy, Maths, Science and use the International Primary Curriculum for our other subjects such as history, geography and art. The curriculum for literacy and maths has key skills and expectations for each year group from Year 1 to 6. The students’ attainment and effort for this term along with comments on their progress and has been issued today in the Primary December Report.

This week started in a delightfully fragrant way.
