This week has been a wonderful reminder of the importance of National Identity in our community, and why it is something to be celebrated. On Wednesday, I had the privilege of attending the Islamic and Social Studies Information Session with parents. It was inspiring to watch our UAE Student Ambassadors and Islamic Studies students present with pride about the value of their learning, and how these subjects extend far beyond the classroom. Through our curriculum, students not only learn about the history, culture, and values of the UAE, but also embrace the cherished opportunities to share this knowledge with others. From reading stories to younger children, to leading events that celebrate cultural understanding and the spirit of the Emirates, our students are living examples of how National Identity connects us all. Read on to see how these values, traditions, and celebrations are woven into everyday life at BIS Abu Dhabi.
