Last week we had our first official Thursday Team Time where day students were invited to join their friends and experience an evening in boarding. It was wonderful to see everyone working hard in Academic Development, talking together over a delicious BBQ and participating in a good old game of dodgeball! We look forward to welcoming more day students to our Thursday Team Time events and weekend trips.

This week, it was our pleasure to welcome staff from Bromsgrove UK into our boarding houses. We shared with them the developments that have been made and were pleased to hear that they wanted to take back many example of good practise to the UK boarding houses. This in itself goes to show how BIST’s boarding provision is going from strength to strength to ensure that every child is developed both socially and emotionally.

As many of you may know, we have been working since April to provide a well structured personalised program for our youngest boarders. We are now pleased to share with you this little video, which shows some of the highlights of “A day in the life of a Primary Boarder”
