🧸 Exploration is at the heart of early learning! Our youngest learners at BSB City enjoyed some time discovering textures, shapes, and colours through hands-on play and painting.

🎨 At BSB, we follow an inquiry-based learning approach that encourages children to think critically, ask questions, and persevere. These playful experiences also support communication, language, and social-emotional development, helping children grow in confidence and independence.

✨ Moments like these lay the foundation for a lifelong love of learning, fostering curiosity, creativity, and joy in discovering the world around them — all while having fun together.

🚁 Our Year 12 students took their learning beyond the classroom this week with an exciting pre-university experience!

🌐 At UPC, students explored Drone Technology, discovering how propeller speed and position affect lift and direction — directly linking to the forces they study in Physics.

💡 They then tested drones that recognise hand and body movements, before heading outdoors to fly a drone built by university students in the Drone Field.

✨ This visit gave students a real-world look at how Physics connects to Aerospace Engineering and emerging technologies, while developing key problem-solving and analytical skills for future STEM studies.

🎨 Last week, our Year 3 students from BSB Sitges visited the Paradox Museum, diving into a world where nothing is quite as it seems!

🪞 From puzzling mirror reflections to disappearing sofas, they explored a range of optical illusions and visual tricks that made them see the world in a whole new way.

✨ Through these hands-on exhibits, our students discovered how science, maths, and art work together in fun and unexpected ways.

🔬 This experience links perfectly with their Science topic on Light this term. They will be learning about reflection, discovering how to protect our eyes from the sun, investigating how and when shadows are formed, and observing patterns in how shadows change.

🌍 BSB students are world-ready!

🎓 A BSB education opens doors to a wide range of future possibilities. In 2025, our graduates have secured places at prestigious universities across Spain, the UK, Europe, the US, and Canada — even in an increasingly competitive environment.

🇪🇸 46% of our leavers are staying in Spain, joining top institutions like ESADE, University of Barcelona (UB), IE University, and La Salle.

🇬🇧 24% are heading to the UK, with offers from Cambridge, Warwick, King’s College London, Bristol, and UCL.

🌍 The remaining 30% are exploring other European universities. Wherever they go, our BSB Futures team is here to guide students and families every step of the way, helping them turn aspirations into reality.

🌟 At BSB, we support our families right from the start. This term, our Early Years team hosted Tapestry and Phonics workshops for Nursery & Reception parents, all through BSB Castelldefels and BSB Sitges Campuses

📖 These sessions provided practical tips on how learning is nurtured both at school and at home, helping parents feel confident and connected to their child’s journey.

🔔 Don’t forget to check Cognita Connect for upcoming workshop dates at your campus — these sessions are highly valuable, and strong communication between parents and school is key to every child’s success.
