YEARBOOK Many of you will have noted that the Year Book for the last academic year has not yet been published. This is because the deadline was missed as the team responsible attempted to put together the entire package in a very narrow window of time at the end of the year. To avoid a repeat, we will be building the Year Book in monthly chapters through the year.

We are planning to build a Year Book team who will use club time to select the best pictures and to set them professionally in what we aim to be the best Year Book produced by any school anywhere in the world. www.ibsb.ro

DRAMA CLUB Doing Drama is one of the best ways of learning and consolidating our children’ social and communication skills. Any student doing Drama should know that it takes a lot of team work and empathy in order to become successful on stage or in front of the public in general. In order to do Drama you cannot be just “talented” because, above all, before performing well in front of any audience, you have to be able to understand your fellow colleagues and how they feel so that you can work well as a team.

Doing Drama involves mutual respect and tolerance which relates very well with our school Life Skills program.
