On Wednesday night, the capacity audience were entertained and impressed by the variety of dances performed by students from Years 3 to 9. It was very apparent that the students worked very hard to perfect their routines, and were clearly very thankful for the hard work of the teachers who organised it. Thank you to Mrs Laura Wright, Miss Andrea Webb and Miss Helen Thomson, the organiser of the event.
This week the Primary School was awash with excitement in anticipation of the Year production. And Year 5 did not disappoint in their brilliant performance of Make a Wish - aa production written and directed by BIS' own Mr Kinghorn.
The audience loved the costumes and music of the production with many commenting it was "the best yet".
Congratulations to the Year 5 students, the Year 5 team, the Performing Arts Faculty and especially to Mr Kinghorn. Thank you for a wonderful performance.

The inaugural Sei Young Kim Artist of the Year competition was judged on 22nd of February. Students from Foundation Stage to Year 13 participated in the competition with this year’s theme being ‘Colour’.
The judges, Mrs Chin and Mr Shin, had a difficult time deciding on a winner with such a high standard of work having been submitted, but decided on Catherine Newley from Year 5 as the Primary winner and Hannah Cox from Year 11 as the Secondary winner.
Sounds of the gamelan resonated through the school from Friday 21st January to Sunday 23rd January. Students from Penang International School (Uplands), Tanglin Trust School and BIS participated in the Gamelan Festival. Teachers from around Jakarta instructed the eager musicians and the 3 day workshop culminated in a wonderful performance on Sunday afternoon from the students. A big thank you to Elizabeth Alwi and the Performing Arts Faculty, the Gamelan teachers, Pak Adji and to Teater Tetas. What a fantastic weekend.
On Friday 10 December, a poignant performance of David Holman’s adaptation of the Charles Dickens’ classic ‘A Christmas Carol’ was delivered by students from Year 3 to IB. Imaginative lighting, special effects and costume helped to create a ghostly atmosphere and the set and projections emphasised the themes and concept of the play. The individual student performances were top class and the audience was thoroughly entertained. Congratulations to Mr Peirson and the students on their magnificent efforts.
The BIS World Theatre was rocking on Monday 6 December. The Inaugural BIS Battle of the Bands came to its conclusion with Direct Input taking the prize. Led by Dias Lokesworo, the 400+ strong audience rocked on to the Queen classic ‘Another One Bites the Dust’ and Maroon 5’s ‘Misery’. The Judges, Mr Finch, Miss Foster and the Simon Cowell-esqe Mr Moore were unanimous in awarding their decision to Direct Input.
