From the Head Teacher

 PTG Wine & Cheese Party
My thanks this week go to Cindy Kazzi, our PTG Social Secretary, for hosting yesterday’s marvelous evening of good food and good company in her home.  It was good to mingle with parents in such a convivial social setting and all who attended are surely grateful to Cindy and the PTG committee for organising this year’s event.


Universities—tours and BIS alumnae success
With our Year 13 students preparing for their university and college applications, we host a number of events that bring the universities to An Phu and into BIS.  The UK’s Sterling Group lectures this week were well attended and gave students an opportunity to interact with top professors and researchers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. 

Following on next week, we focus stateside with the AEO Vietnam Tour visiting our campus on Monday.

On Wednesday, Yale—NUS College representatives visit BIS to talk to students about the unique opportunity for a Yale education in Singapore, where our very own BIS alumna Annette Wu is studying Global Affairs.

Look out for our new advertisement in the local magazines early next month, featuring two BIS alumnae who scored an impressive 44 points in their IB Diploma this year, placing them among the top 0.7% of the world’s IB Diploma Programme students.  Ashley Lee will be reading Economics and Management at world renowned Oxford University and Rosa Chung  has a place to read Business Administration and Film at the prestigious University of Southern California.
