📣 The 8th Graders adeptly ran their Q2 Assembly during Advisory this morning. They collaborated ...as three committees: Script Writers, Vibe Setters, and Game Organizers…
Vibe Setters greeted Grade 6 and 7 Advisories, conducting a "follow the leader" icebreaker to get active communicators ready. Then they transferred leadership to the Game Leaders for different communication activities: Count'n On It, Noodle Doddlin', and See It, Say It (No Peeking). Each station had students practicing communicating in collaborative ways. Script Writers and Vibe Setters collaborated to create presentations reminiscing our second-quarter experiences like Humans of BFS, school portraits, and Thanksgiving. #SHARKvalues #ActiveCommunicator #bfs #busanforeignschool #MSassembly

BFS students participated in high-level diplomacy and political debates at JejuMUN X, hosted by KIS... Jeju. Students explored substantive and salient issues including: the China-Taiwan relationship, the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and tackled ways to reduce the global drug trade and responsibly dispose of chemical weapons. They also reassessed British-colonial relations before the American Revolution. Dozens of speeches, motions, and questions were made to ultimately craft and pass resolutions. Congratulations to Daniil N (8) for participating in his first conference, Vivian C (9) and David C (10) passed resolutions and private directives in their committees. Sophomore Joy C won Outstanding Delegate for her work representing China on disposing of chemical weapons, and Evan Z (10) won Best Delegate representing Bangladesh for his diplomatic work on combating the global drug trade.
