🌏 Adventure, learning, and collaboration!

🌿 This summer, we had the opportunity to join an expedition to Malaysia alongside students from other @cognitaschools . Representing our school, one student and one teacher were part of the expedition team

🌴 They explored the vibrant city of Kuala Lumpur, trekked and camped in the heart of the Belum rainforest, and immersed themselves in the traditions of the Orang Asli community.

🐢 The journey also included conservation projects on Redang Island and hands-on work protecting endangered turtles at the Chagar Hutang Turtle Project ( @seatru_umt )

🤝 Being part of a Cognita-wide initiative made the experience even more special, connecting young learners from across the globe and creating memories and lessons they’ll carry for a lifetime.

🌳 Growing together!

✨ We’re proud to launch the BSB Culture Tree, a symbol of our shared values and aspirations. Rooted in our four aims - positive experience, excellent academic progress, character development, and a global mindset, the tree represents how every member of our community contributes to making BSB a place where students thrive.

🌍 If you see one of the trees around campus, look out for the panot, Barcelona’s flower-shaped tile. It’s a small reminder of where we come from, and of the global outlook we share.

🌟 The BSB Culture Tree is more than a display — it embodies what a BSB Education stands for: enabling students to thrive in, and contribute positively to, a rapidly evolving world.

🔗 Stay tuned for a video from our Executive Principal, Neil Tetley, sharing more about it soon!

👪 Building strong school-home connections from the start!

📅 This week and throughout the month, we’re holding our Parent Information Meetings across campuses. These sessions are a valuable opportunity to hear more about the year ahead and discover how you can support your child’s learning journey.

💡 From curriculum insights to practical tips, the meetings also give parents the chance to meet teachers and tutors, ask questions, and feel fully informed as the new school year begins.

🌟 We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible!

📚 With 80+ after-school clubs, led by our incredible partners (over 20!) and BSB staff across all our campuses, there’s something for every interest — from music, drama, and sports to science, coding, and creative arts.

🎉 Celebrating 10 years of memories! 
 
👩‍🎓 This weekend, we welcomed back the Class of 2015 for their 10th Anniversary Reunion. Alumni and teachers from their time came together at BSB Castelldefels to reconnect, share stories, and celebrate everything they’ve achieved since their school days.   
 
☘️ It was wonderful to show them how much BSB has grown in the last decade – from the addition of the rugby pitch to the opening of the BSB Nexus Pre-University campus and, most recently, the innovative BSB STEAM Centre, all of which they were excited to see and loved exploring.   
 
🌟 Perhaps the most touching moments were when they sat down in the very classrooms where they once studied, bringing back memories of laughter, friendships, and lessons that helped shape who they are today. 
 
💬 Mark Woodward, Secondary and Pre-University Headteacher, shared:  “Hearing the journeys of our former students was truly inspiring – from doctors, lawyers, pilots, business leaders, filmmakers and scientists to PhD researchers at Oxford, Cambridge and here in Barcelona. Their varied pathways and achievements make us immensely proud.”
