BISC HOUSES
Our School is divided into four houses: Cygnus (blue), Lupus (yellow), Phoenix (red) and Pegasus
(green).
Each student (and teacher) belongs to one house and stays with that house as he or she moves
through the year groups. Students are awarded merits for their exemplary behaviour during their
school activities (lessons, trips, playtime or lunch time), as well as for educational reasons (working
hard at school, completing extra homework etc). A friendly competition is involved houses
compete with one another at sports and in other ways, thus providing a focus for group loyalty and
unity.
Once a week, students merit points for behaviour and academic achievements are totalled up for
comparison between the houses and the results are announced at our Friday Primary and Secondary
Assemblies. The score is displayed on the House Board in the big villa, so you can see which house
has been the Weekly Winner and check the position of the houses. The points contribute to the
award of the House Cup at the end of the school year. Below you can see the logo, song and motto of
each house.
I wish everyone a wonderful year at BISC,
Iwona Sokoowska
House Coordinator

Koreans celebrate Chuseok by eating special food, particularly a certain kind of rice cake called Songpyeon. It is made with finely
ground new rice and the dough is kneaded into small round shapes and filled with sesame seeds, chestnuts, red beans or other similar
ingredients. The rice cakes are arranged upon layers of pine needles as they are steamed, filling the home with the delicate and fresh
fragrance of autumn. A few years ago, our Korean community made Songpyeon for BISC students and staff. We enjoyed eating Korean
rice cakes : )
Do you remember the Ganggangsullae film we have watched during one of the assemblies? Thats right. It is the traditional Korean
dance which is performed by children or by women wearing traditional silk clothing called Hanbok. It is also performed during the
Chuseok.
We are living in the present looking hopefully into the future. We still have to remember our ancestor and Chuseok is a perfect
occasion to do so.
I am thankful for the opportunity to introduce this small part of the Korean culture to the BISC community in our newsletter.
My best wishes to my colleagues and friends at BISC Wroclaw on this occasion. : )
