Student delegates from Bucharest, Warsaw, Zagreb, Moscow, St-Petersburg, Bratislava, Tbilisi, Beirut and Belgrade enjoyed day one of CEESA MS Model United Nations today. We were highly fortunate to have had Her Excellency, United States of America Ambassador to Hungary, Ms. Colleen Bell, join our delegates as keynote speaker at the opening ceremony in the AISB theatre this morning. Sincere thanks to all members of the community for your support of this event, especially AISB families for hosting our visiting MUN delegates.

Student Life Update:
What a weekend we are having at AISB! Nine CEESA schools are here for CEESA MUN changing the world one resolution at a time! On Friday, we had an outstanding opening ceremony with the honorable Colleen Bell United States Ambassador to Hungary who delivered a powerful message of tolerance and inclusion to all those in attendance.
Our Middle School students are also heavily involved in volunteering for the International Festival which will take place on Sunday. Close to forty students have volunteered their time to help our PSA put on the best possible Festival for our community.
We are also hosting a social this evening which will also be attended by our MUN guests. We are expecting close to 240 students for this event alone!
Lastly, our sixth grade just came back from a day trip with the Special Olympics athletes, and the feedback we have received is that it was the best and most fulfilling service learning experience they have ever had at AISB!
Thank you for your ongoing support of our school programs!

Middle School Student Life Coordinator / M.S FrenchMS Arts Day:
AISB teachers and parents also put aside their usual teaching roles for the day and shared their talents in the Arts with students. Workshops such as line dancing, henna painting, costume design and shadow dance were among the offerings.
The culminating (and perhaps most exciting) event was the Talent Show. Over 25 students took the stage to present dance, singing and piano pieces. We are very proud of the commitment of our students and would like to extend a big thank you to all of the volunteers involved in making this day a success.
On Wednesday, April 27, 2016, from 8.45 - 9.15 the Grade Six students are inviting their parents to a 'Celebration of Learning'. This is an opportunity for you to share in your child's success as a learner in the Middle School. We are hoping that by starting this event earlier on this day that we are able to welcome some working parents in addition to the parents who do the early morning drop off. We look forward to seeing you there!
Best regards,
MS Grade 6 Team

Lunch for Alpha:
Middle School French classes demonstrated on Friday, April 8th, a concrete example of being a responsible global citizen as part of our AISB Mission. For the 5th consecutive year, MS French classes raised funds to support the education of Alpha at his school, Les Cajoutiers, in Warang, Senegal. Thank you to everyone in our community for the wonderful food that was brought in to support Alpha's education! Thanks to the generosity and compassion within our community, Alpha's educational needs are taken care of for another year.

Grade 6 Science:
The grade 6 students have been using the design process to create self-warming or cooling devices using their knowledge of chemical reactions. The week the students pitched their inventions to the class. Classmates assumed the role of investors and evaluated the created "products" ability to make it to the market. Students will use what they learned from these class presentations in their final project of the school year. In the final project students are asked to apply the design process to create proposals for energy saving initiatives in our school.
