💬 Bringing Catalan to Life at BSB Sitges!

🛍️ In a dynamic workshop focused on real-world communication, Year 4 students used everyday Catalan to “go shopping,” while Year 6 shared mini presentations about their pets — all in the local language.

🗣️ These hands-on opportunities help students build confidence, deepen cultural connections, and experience the language as it’s truly spoken.

🎤 Confident voices at BSB Nexus!
Our A Level students this week showcased their Extended Project Qualifications (EPQs), presenting complex, self-chosen research topics to an audience with clarity, confidence, and conviction.

🧠 These presentations weren’t just about the outcomes of their projects, but also about how they conducted their research, validated assumptions, answered their project question, and reflected on the process—highlighting both what went well and what they would do differently. In short, they revealed the learning journey behind each project.

🗣️ It was also a celebration of their communication and public speaking skills. From Formula One car aerodynamics to misogyny in rap music, students demonstrated impressive oracy as they explained, argued, and inspired.

💡 Topics also included Islam and sport, Brexit and the UK Constitution, graphic design as social critique, and whether art has become a commodity — each one delivered with poise and purpose.

🔊 At BSB Nexus, developing articulate, independent thinkers is at the heart of what we do. Well done to all our presenters!

🎭 Last week, Year 4 put on an amazing performance of Project Planet, a musical that teaches children about farming and local flower wildlife.

🌻 Our young performers stepped into their roles beautifully, bringing the beauty of nature to life on stage.
🌱 A meaningful activity that got our students thinking about the environment while supporting our school’s commitment to sustainability and awareness about the natural world."

🌿 Our ‘Cool and Conscious’ campaign has officially launched at BSB!

💡Today, our students came dressed in their coolest outfits to kick off this sustainability initiative — and they’re already taking action!

🌞 This is part of our school-wide commitment to becoming more sustainable by using energy more efficiently, reducing our overall consumption, and helping protect the planet.

Here are the 4 golden rules we are now following to stay cool and energy smart over the summer term:
1️⃣ Keep windows closed when the AC is on
2️⃣ Turn off lights and screens when leaving the room
3️⃣ Set the temperature between 21–23°C and leave it
4️⃣ Switch off the AC at the end of the day

🌍 Join us at home in following these simple tips and let’s build climate-conscious habits for a greener future — together!
