OUR

UAE AMBASSADORS

Liyan Mustafa - My name is Liyan, and I’m delighted to be a member of this year's UAE ambassadors committee. I moved to BSAK from Al Bateen Academy, and although this year hasn't exactly been what we were anticipating there are many ways we can work our way around certain obstacles that we will face in these unprecedented times. My interests range from playing the guitar to tennis and swimming, I am also looking to pursue a career in politics and international relations. At BSAK, we are a very diverse and multicultural community. Personally, I really value my culture and think it is crucial to embrace who you are and educate other people about your background. Yasmine Akasha - My name is Yasmine Akasha. I’ve been at BSAK since FS1 and I am currently in Year 13. I love traveling to many counties and exploring distinct cultures. I’m Emirati and have been inspired to be a UAE ambassador as I wish to bridge the cultural gaps between communities. I believe school is the first step in creating more understanding and tolerance for a better and brighter future. I’m looking forward to meeting many of you during this academic year. Shamma Al Mehairi - My name is Shamma Al Mehairi and I am a proud member of the UAE Ambassadors. Community service is something I am extremely passionate about and in my free time, I like to sketch. I have had the pleasure of being a part of this team ever since it was introduced. The UAE community is one that encompasses many beautiful traditions and it's unique culture is what we love to share with all of you. As an Emirati student at BSAK, the sense of community created and the merging of different cultures produced a home that I am so grateful to be a part of. Zayed Al Ketbi - My name is Zayed Al Ketbi and I’m a UAE Chancellor with many hobbies such as football, gaming and travelling. I’ve been in BSAK all my life and see it as my second home if not my first and it’s an honor to give something back in my last year here. What draws me to the UAE ambassador committee, set by Mrs Kadhum, is the passion they have for making a difference and having a say in the school and also allowing all the students and members of BSAK to acknowledge the beauty of the local culture.

Aisha Al Ketbi - My name is Aisha Al Ketbi and I have been lucky enough to be a part of the UAE Ambassadors both this year and last. In my free time, I use painting and music such as playing the guitar as an escape from the real world. Being an Emirati, I feel the need to educate younger students about our ravishing and distinctive culture which I could achieve in this position. Mariam Al Dhaheri - My name is Mariam Al Dhaheri and I am honoured to be a part of the UAE ambassadors. This opportunity allows me to be a role model to younger Emiratis and lets me educate the school’s international students about Emirati culture and traditions. I am a patriotic individual and I take pride in this position and I am committed to build a bridge between the Emiratis and non-Emiratis. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and playing the piano.
