✨ And just like that, we are off to winter break after a busy term!

🎶 Over the past few days, our younger learners have welcomed parents into their classrooms for their Celebrations of Learning, proudly sharing everything they have achieved this term, alongside plenty of Christmas carols and festive moments.

🎓 As we close the school doors for the year, we would like to wish our entire BSB community happy holidays and a restful winter break, filled with time to relax, recharge and enjoy moments together.

🎄 Meanwhile, you can also peek at the End of Term Newsletters sent by our Headteachers to rewind everything that has happened this term.

💙 We can’t wait to welcome everyone back very soon. Happy Holidays from all of us at BSB.

🎭 As we begin to wrap up the term, our Secondary and Pre-University students have been celebrating by sharing their talents through music, drama and performance, showcasing their creativity, confidence and passion.

🎄 At BSB City, our Secondary concert and a staged reading of A BSB Christmas Carol brought our school community together, filling the halls with festive cheer.

🎶 Meanwhile, at BSB Castelldefels, our whole-school concert was a truly special occasion, marking the debut of our Parent Choir alongside a wide variety of musical performances — including several pieces performed by our very own BSB Staff Choir.

✨ It’s wonderful to see how these events bring together students, families and staff, celebrating talent, creativity and the joy of the festive season.

✨ Last Friday, a group of keen readers from our BSB Castelldefels Secondary had the exciting opportunity to take part in “El Club dels Experts” (@club.dels.experts.cast), a radio podcast about reading that features book discussions, recommendations, and improvisation activities, broadcast by Radio Castelldefels (@radiocastelldefels).

🎙️ The programme host and sound technician visited our school to record two episodes, which will be released in the new year. It was fantastic to see our students speak so confidently and enthusiastically about their favourite books and characters, connecting with one another through shared interests and responding thoughtfully — and often improvising brilliantly — to a wide range of questions.

📚 Alongside well-loved fiction such as The Hunger Games and Harry Potter, students also tackled non-fiction books, exploring important topics like social media and wellbeing in sport. Their ability to think on their feet and discuss these themes with maturity truly impressed everyone. All of this was done in Catalan, showcasing their excellent oracy skills and passion for reading.

👏 Thank you to our students for representing the school so brilliantly.

👉 Stay tuned as we’ll be sharing the programmes as they are released, so you can listen to our very own “experts” 😉

🎄 At BSB, we are in full Christmas spirit! These past two weeks have been filled with festive magic — from our Jingle Mingles in BSB City and BSB Sitges, to our first-ever Year 7 concert in Castelldefels.

✨ We’ve been busy decking the halls across all our campuses and kicking off our Celebrations of Learning to show families everything our students have achieved this term.

🎉 We can’t wait to welcome everyone to next week’s events (you can find them all on Cognita Connect 😉). Let’s make this final week the brightest and jolliest yet… only one week to go!

🎁 And stay tuned… we’ll soon be sharing our 2025 Wrapped so we can relive all the incredible moments we’ve experienced together this year at BSB!

☕ A wonderful morning celebrating Oracy through Music, Art & Physical Education!

🌟 Our BSB City community enjoyed a relaxed coffee morning with parents where students showcased their growing confidence to express ideas, perform, and communicate through a variety of creative subjects:

🔹 Our Year 10 musicians performed pieces contributing to her iGCSE coursework.
🔹 A Year 11 PE student shared how he records and analyses his own sports performances to explain key techniques for his iGCSE programme.
🔹 And a Year 13 IB student presented her incredible artwork, giving us insight into her creative process.

💬 This opportunity to present to families allowed parents to see how our enriched curriculum comes to life — and how what we teach in the classroom takes shape as students prepare for their future examinations.

💛 Thank you to all the families who joined us to hear these inspiring student presentations and to connect with teachers and one another.
