Our BISK Production!
Our Primary students recently took the stage for an unforgettable performance of Around the World in 80 Days! From the confident leads in Upper Primary to our youngest performers in KG, every child had a role in this exciting journey across the globe.
With colourful costumes, cultural dances, and music representing the many countries visited by Phileas Fogg, the production was a joyful celebration of creativity, teamwork, and global learning. The show highlighted the talents and enthusiasm of our students, supported by our dedicated teachers.
At BISK, the stage is more than a spotlight – it’s a space where learning, confidence, and imagination shine.
