91´«Ã½

91´«Ã½ Calendar 2021 is now finally ready. As we had been away from the campus for such a prolonged period of time, we thought we would delve into the school’s past and reminisce by presenting some pictures of some familiar characters and visitors, along with an illustration of the evolution of our beautiful campus. If you would like a copy, they are available from the school reception for 500 NRS. We hope you enjoy looking through the calendar.Ìý

It really has been amazing to see Key Stage 3 back and thriving in school. You can see that students are revelling in the opportunity to socialise with their peers again, whether it be in the classroom or outside. Although the students put in so much effort and showed great resilience whilst we were in continuous learning, it is so exciting to see different classes bursting with creativity. A special mention must go out to the year 7’s who have been fantastic at following the guidelines set out and being role models to the younger students.

Over the last three weeks the standard of work has continued to be absolutely incredible. Although the work is very different to what was being produced in continuous learning, it is great to see that key stage 3 are still working hard to create different pieces that everyone can be proud of. Right across a range of different subjects, students are wanting to impress not only their teachers, but their peers as well.Ìý

In Science, the year 8’s have been learning about human physiology. In particular, they were looking at the blood vessels and how the different types transport blood around the body. The students were asked to create a presentation that looked into these different elements and be able to discuss that with the rest of the class.Ìý

In year 9 Science, the students have been looking at the atmosphere. They were tasked with writing an essay looking into two different solutions to help reduce global warming. Adhya created a fantastic two sided argument that went into great depth on both sides. On such a topical issue, it is great to see a student have a real passion for trying to reduce a problem that is going to affect us all.

In Year 8 Geography, the students have been looking into everything Space and how tourism is being built around the idea. Students were asked to design their own methods of transport into space, write an article about their experience of going into space and trying to entice others to join this new type of tourism. It is great to see students getting involved in something that we could see in the very near future.

Another area the students were looking into was Nepal tourism. Tourism in the country has been severely impacted this year by the global pandemic. The students have been looking at different ways they could advertise to the general public to return to Nepal.Ìý

In Year 9 Languages, the students have been learning how to make revision fun. They were playing the game ‘Noughts and Crosses’ but having to decipher the meanings of words to be able to put a ‘nought or cross’ in that particular box.

Finally, all of the students in Key Stage 3 have been extremely busy in Music. It is clear to see that the students have really missed the practical side of the subject and have been loving the chance to get hands on with different instruments. In Year 7 the students have been looking at afrobeats and making their own music relating to that topic. In Year 8, the students have been looking at mirroring music and creating their own music. Finally, the Year 9’s have been learning about live lounge covers and creating their own versions of their favourite songs. They also had the chance to find their favourite songs.Ìý

We mention FOBISIA in school so often that it now gets us thinking if our parents really know much about it, how it supports us and what advantages we have being a part of such an enriching community.Ìý
