Dear BSM Family,
Last week, I shared thoughts on our school as a British international school and the rich tapestry of diversity that characterises our community.
Our commitment to diversity extends beyond mere acknowledgement; we recognise that true learning occurs not only within the confines of the classroom but also through meaningful interactions with individuals whose backgrounds differ from our own. By embracing diversity, we open ourselves to new perspectives, challenge our assumptions, and cultivate empathy, a cornerstone of global citizenship.
In celebrating our international community, we acknowledge the unique contributions each member brings to our collective tapestry. Whether through cultural presentations and interactions, collaborative projects, service support engagements or everyday connections, we are continually reminded of the richness that stems from our diversity. It is through these encounters that we transcend boundaries, and forge lasting friendships.
As you read this, I am representing BSM at the COBIS (Council of British International Schools) conference in London as well as visiting some universities (Imperial College London and Cambridge included), and hosting a BSM Alumni Connect event. Connections with similarly-minded schools at COBIS, with universities and with alumni all contribute to a strong extended community. We had more than 40 attendees at the alumni event last night!

Hearing our alums speak so passionately about their time at BSM and their dreams for their future has been truly uplifting and makes me feel truly proud to be part of our wonderful BSM community.
Enjoy a family-filled weekend.
Kind regards,
Martin I. van der Linde
