Origami is an art in which sheets of paper are trans-formed into model through folding and sculpting tech-
nique. While we might not always think about it, origami surrounds us in various forms, ranging from things as simple as envelopes to the fancy folds of napkins. Chil-
dren's love for origami is evidenced by how they are enamoured by paper airplane, paper hat or paper boat; making origami, a perfect activity to foster both cognitive
and motor skills. Students made paper snowman, umbrella and raindrops which were incorporated with the topic ‘Seasons’. Students enjoyed the activity which was
conducted with the aim of increasing manual dexterity, focus and concentration whilst improving 3D perception and logical thinking.
Bare branches, white snow, blue sky and the winds, Dry leaves fall off, green grass and plants grow.
The four seasons and their graceful hues, All together they make the year beautiful.
Seasons are such an integral part of our lives that its mention is exchanged along with the pleasantries. Our clothing,
activity and food habit are all guided by the daily weather. As kids grow and explore, their curious minds notice the change in weather and seasons. An interactive session was organised to sensitize the students to the attributes of
weather in different seasons. A practical demonstration was given with the help of props on the types of clothes worn in different season. The activity helped the young minds break the conundrum and get a clear understanding of weather
and seasons and the sequence of their appearance in the year.
Students demonstrated a remarkable performance as
they spoke on the topic ‘Seasons’. This monthly ac-
tivity gives kindergartners an opportunity to open up
and put forth their feelings and views in front of their peers. The kids were encouraged to speak coherently,
be confident and acquire public speaking skill.
It’s no secret that fine motor skill is the foundation of good handwriting. The muscles of fingers and
hands should be adequately trained to hold the pencil and write neatly. The activities, ‘threading with beads’
and ‘cotton bud art’ were conducted to develop essential fine-motor skill in children; with added benefit of improving their
focus & concentration and also introducing them to basic mathematical concepts.
'Storytelling' activity was held to give students
an opportunity to enhance their language and
express themselves more clearly. Kinder-
gartners arrived dressed up in costumes.
Flashing their props and puppets, the little
story tellers narrated their stories with confidence and poise. This
activity encouraged them to expand their vocabulary, think creative-
ly and understand how to structure a story.
We are fortunate to live in a culturally diverse coun-
try, where people of different ethnicities dwell har-
moniously. This activity was organised to allow our
students to explore various cultures giving them an
opportunity to learn and appreciate the diversi-
ty. Children arrived all dressed up in traditional
costumes. They spoke a few lines about the cultures
they represented and shared famous dishes from the worldly cuisines. Ms.
Anjali reinforced the topic and encouraged students to respect the differences
and similarities in different cultures. The activity was thoroughly enjoyed by
the little angels.
It’s the moral obligation of humans to protect and preserve the natural world from its anthro-pogenic afflictions. Taking this noble cause a step ahead, the student members of ‘Go Green
Team’ under the guidance of educator Ms Kshama Pandey, conducted an awareness drive in the school. Students carried out a “Good Litter Survey” by studying the amount and types of waste generated in the
school; and visited every classroom to spread awareness through posters, inspirational videos, environmental bro-chures and survey report. They also interviewed people of different age groups to seek their opinion on whether plas-
tic is a boon or curse. BIS Director Ms Ritu Verma praised the initiative and reiterated that discussing man-made en-vironmental issues instil hope for a clean world and pristine rainforest. Principal Dr Heena Rachh appreciated the ef-
fort and stressed that this noble cause should transcend and the drive should not be limited to the school campus. Coordinator Dr Preet kamal Bhatnagar insisted students to buy reusable products and support “Clean Power Plan.”
The month of January had kept the primary section actively involved in Interdisciplinary
Projects. IDP is a curriculum’s approach to consciously apply methodology from more
than one discipline to examine a central theme. Students were busy studying the
topics assigned for their grades from the perspective of all core subjects. The activity
encouraged the children to accomplish their tasks by doing researches, discussing with
parents, peers and teachers before arriving at a conclusion.
This method helped in creating awareness
among students of the meaningful connec-
tion that exist among the various disciplines
taught at school. Participation of students
in their learning process through age appro-
priate activities enhance their cognitive
skills such as critical thinking, reading
comprehension, analysis, in-class participa-
tion etc
On 21st January, the Bhavan’s online GCC spelling Bee Competition was hosted by the Bhavans School, Kuwait. After many Intra-school & knockout rounds, our finalists of all three categories competed with their counterparts from Bha-
vans schools at Oman, Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Kuwait. In Category 1, Manini Desai of grade I Golden bagged the First position and was awarded the coveted cash prize of Rs. 50,000 and a certificate. Sunish Balayan of grade II Cauvery
and Steve Biju of grade V Aries bagged the Runners-up position in Category II and III respectively and received their certificates & cash prize of Rs.10,000 each. The event was broadcast live, and hundreds of spectators witnessed the
sweeping win by the students of BIS.
Doha Recitaion Competition was held at Indian School Bahrain on 10th Janu-
ary. Under the expert guidance of educator Mr. Dilip Kumar Mishra, our stu-
dents participated in the international celebration of Vishwa Hindi Diwas. Shree
Hamsini of Grade VI Tagore made the school proud by winning the 2nd prize for
her beautiful narration of ‘Sant Kabir ke Dohe’.
'Asianet Think and Learn Challenge,' the region’s biggest Inter School Quiz Con-
test was conducted in CBSE Schools in GCC, giving all students from grades VI
to XI an equal opportunity to appear in this prestigious quiz contest. The aim of
this contest is to develop the thinking and reasoning ability and enhance the
scientific aptitude of students. The competition offers cash prizes and an educa-
tional trip to NASA to the winning team. BIS proudly announces that Ritisha
Bisht of Grade VI Tagore has qualified for next level. She is among the top six
students of category I from Bahrain to appear in the Quiz which will be held in
UAE
Heartiest Congratulations to Shaurya Shyju Nair of Grade III- Kilimanjaro and Ibrahim Mohammad of Grade IV-Maple for qualifying for the 2nd level of 10th SOF National Mathematics Olympiad.
The World's largest Olympiads are conduct-ed by the Science Olympiad Foundation
(SOF). It is an educational foundation and a non-profit organisation based in New Delhi,
India. During the current year, over 42000 schools registered for six Olympiads and
millions of students from 25 countries have participated in them. We are pleased to an-
nounce the result of our young achievers at 10th SOF National Mathematics Olympiad
held in December 2016. We are anticipating the arrival of the hard copy of individual re-
sults of students, certificates, medals and student's performance reports.
From the students who participate in each of these Olympiads every year, the top 500 students, top 10 students from each state, as well as school toppers from schools having a participation of more than 10 students in the exam, are se-
lected for the second level. The 2nd level of NSO will be held on Sunday, 12th February at over 500 centres across the globe.

The students of BIS appeared in the International Benchmark Tests for improving learning, 2016. International Benchmark Tests (IBT) is a high-quality skill-based educational assessment programme developed and administered
by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER). It is a world leader in educational research, assessment and reporting. The International Benchmark Test (IBT) is not linked to any national curriculum, thus, leaving scope
for fair comparison of results internationally for core subjects like English, Mathematics and Science. They also pro-vide schools with detailed information about each student’s strengths and areas where they can improve for all sub-
jects. This encourages the students to develop skills related to problem solving, data interpretation, reasoning and critical thinking in a global context.
