Primary Science Day Investigations was the theme of this year's amazing Primary Science Day. To celebrate their success in their PBL projects some children from Years 5 and 6 became student teachers for the morning. They visited other classes and helped the students replicate their own experiments. Meanwhile Years 5 and 6. investigated the tensile strength and design properties of spaghetti by making a bridge and then testing how much weight it could take.
Chinese New Year Celebrations This year, ISB celebrated the Chinese New Year by inviting our Chinese teachers from the Confucius institute to showcase Chinese traditional crafts and introduce traditional activities to our students, who were delighted to learn about calligraphy, the dragon dance and other Chinese customs. Our KS1 students were wonderful in the themed show they treated everybody to during the assembly. A special thank you goes out to our Chinese parents, who shared delicious dishes in the Chinese traditional cuisine and brought artefacts for our students to admire and learn about.
New Chair of PTA Thank you, PTA for the lovely “martisor" offered to all the ladies in the school. It was such a perfect way to start the day and to welcome the spring. The PTA has recently elected a new chair, who is to lead the PTA until the next elections take place – We would like to congratulate Aura Tzanos and thank her for her time and involvement in the life of our community. A huge thank you goes to the former PTA Chair, Mrs Georgeta Clarke for all her help and contribution to the PTA and to the ISB community.
