At The British International School Abu Dhabi, we take immense pride in fostering a vibrant and inclusive community where parents, teachers, and students actively participate in a myriad of activities that enhance the overall educational experience. From enriching extracurricular activities to memorable community events, our school offers a wide variety of opportunities for everyone to get involved and thrive.
One of the cornerstones of our community engagement efforts is the diverse array of events we organise throughout the year. From exhilarating sporting events like Sports Week, Duathlon, and Triathlon to meaningful whole-school gatherings such as UAE Union Day and our Community Iftar during Ramadan, there’s always something exciting happening on campus that brings us together in celebration and pride.
Parents play a crucial role in our community, actively contributing to the vibrant atmosphere of our school life. Such as coordinating engaging Parent Coffee mornings, featuring insightful guest speakers who share their expertise and experiences. These gatherings provide a platform for open dialogue and collaboration between parents, teachers, and school administrators, fostering a sense of unity and mutual support.
Moreover, our dedicated educators go above and beyond to support student-led initiatives, like our One People One Planet event, where students take the lead in organising activities that promote diversity, inclusivity, and global awareness. By empowering students to drive meaningful change, we instill in them the values of leadership, empathy, and service.
Central to our commitment to holistic development is our extensive Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs) programme, offering over 100 diverse activities tailored to cater to students’ varied interests and talents. From sports and crafts to technology and performing arts, our CCAs provide a platform for students to explore new passions, hone their skills, and forge lifelong friendships. What’s more, most of these activities are offered free of charge, ensuring equitable access to enriching experiences for all students. For those seeking specialised instruction, we also offer paid options in disciplines such as tennis, swimming, ceramics, karate, and Mandarin language learning.
But our commitment to community engagement doesn’t stop at the school gates. We recognise that parents are lifelong learners too, which is why we offer a range of CCA opportunities tailored specifically for them. From language classes in Arabic and English to wellness activities like yoga, parents are encouraged to pursue their interests and continue their personal growth journey alongside their children.
The British International School Abu Dhabi is more than just a place of learning—it’s a thriving hub of activity, creativity, and connection. By actively involving parents, teachers, and students in a diverse range of experiences, we create a dynamic learning environment where every member of our community can flourish and thrive. Join us in shaping the future of education and community engagement at The British International School Abu Dhabi. Together, we can achieve extraordinary things.
