Tanzania trip to support Seeway project

In January, our Year 11 students travelled to Tanzania for a week-long trip to participate in community work, go on a safari, and learn about the local environment.

They worked for two days on-site building a school with local builders, mixed cement, and skillfully laid bricks to build walls, shoveled dirt to create a foundation and planted a garden. They also went on a Dolly Bush camping trip, visited a local coffee producer, and learned how the coffee was produced. The students set up their own tents and cooked their food following a recipe. They then built goat sheds for families in need, fitting USB ports to provide light and electricity into the homes and built a smokeless stove out of cow manure, sand, and water. In the Tarangire National Park, the group went on a safari to see the incredible animals in their natural habitat and slept in a tent in the wild for the night. The students were amazed and grateful for the chance to be a part of the project and the memories they created.

Red Crescent

A huge thank you to everyone who donated blankets, food, clothes, teddy bears and toiletries for those affected by the earthquake in Syria and Turkey. Red Crescent was overwhelmed by your generous donations. Some of our students helped load up the truck ready for the items to be taken to the aircrafts, which on arrival will be distributed accordingly.

Once again, our BIS Abu Dhabi family have come together to support those in need.

Families enjoyed getting together at the Welcome Back BBQ, thank you again to our wonderful Community Group for organising this delightful event.
