Our students are on their Biodiversity Trip in Mexico where they are learning about ecological field techniques. They spent the first week in a tropical forest, the Maya Selva, completing a Neotropical Forest Ecology and Mayan Culture course while collecting data across a wide range of taxonomic groups. The second week based at Akumal will be spent learning to dive or snorkeling on the reefs and learning more about Caribbean reef ecology.

Our Group 4 Project is particularly important and relevant for Grade 11 students, as it presents an exciting opportunity to apply knowledge and skills to real-world problems and make a difference in the world. 

We have launched an new ISB Podcast, to provide students with a new channel to raise their voices. The journey was a bit challenging, as we had to learn to manage a brand new communications channel. Little could we suspect that we would end up having not one but two podcasts in the end!

In our new podcast episode, Coach Vic Caban interviews two students from the Music and Drama programme at International School Basel. Together with William Norris, Director of Performing Arts, they share their experiences as members of different groups and ensembles around the school and over the many years they have been at ISB.

Discover the new edition of our quarterly magazine, STORIES UNTOLD, where our students describe life behind the scenes at International School Basel. In this first issue, they talk about Personal Projects, Service Initiatives, Arts, Design, Robotics, Sustainability and much more!

"Stories behind numbers" celebrate the achievements and growth of ISB current and former students. In this video interview, Grade 12 student Audra is a real example of how ISB students can combine their academic journey towards graduation with a passion for high-level sports, in her case horse riding. We've talked to her at one of her most recent competitions in Basel and inquire about her school and sport lives.
