Our School Blog

We have been in contact with the Haus der Statistik close to Alexanderplatz for more than a year now and BBS has successfully established a cooperation with the initiatives taking place at this virbrant place. Maybe one day we will have another school at "Haus der Statistik". For now, please join us in our first BBS art exhibitionat HdS on 20th Sept from 3 until 6pm.

BBS has officially started their staff introduction week. We started off with our aims for 2020/2021, hygiene & data & child protection trainings and last but certainly not least with a training on gender and sexuality. Next week Monday we will see all students return to classes. However, in order to keep a safe environment everybody should wear a mask while walking along the hallways and visiting the toilets. Thank you!

Haben Sie sich schon immer einmal gefragt, wie unsere Grundschule nach Abschluss der Renovierungsarbeiten im Jahr 2018 aussieht? Bitte sehen Sie sich den beigefügten Kurzfilm an, der Ihnen einen Einblick in unsere Schule und die Räume gibt, die Sie finden können.  Während unseres Tages der offenen Tür werden Sie auch die Möglichkeit haben, eine Führung durch das Gebäude zu erhalten. Demnächst im September.

Today we were honoured with the award Environmental School Europe! As a school we will continue to support environmental and climate protection with various projects. Even if these are uncertain and unfamiliar times due to the pandemic, we will continue to address the pressing issues of the future and we promise to continue implementing education for sustainable development.

We are going to slowly re-opening our school. As of 4th May, all students from grade 6, 9, 10 and 12 are returning. Next week year 5 and year 11 are also going to join in. However, the schedule for school is going to be reduced and only core subjects are taught for 45min each under the restrictions of the BBS corona hygiene plan. At the moment, it is hard to say when and if all other grades will be coming back this school year. This is a difficult moment for all of us - students, parents and staff.

Due to the Coronavirus our primary and secondary school are closed until further notice. Exams for MSA and Abitur are taking place as usual. If you have any questions, please contact info@berlin-bilingual.de. We hope to see you all after the Easter break. Stay safe and healthy!

"When we are born as kids we don't care about colour"

Hello, we are the students of Berlin Bilingual School.

There are many types of discrimination - not only on the basis of skin colour or origin, but also on the basis of disability, religious affiliation or language.
We reject all of this - we want to live and learn together peacefully. Therefore we applied for the title "School without racism - school with courage".

Here a link to the radio show RADIJOJO recorded at our big "School without racism" Ceremony last year.

The BBS secondary school will move in summer 2020. BBS became owners of a building complex in Granitzstr. 38(A) in December last year.

We are very happy to announce that our primary students accumulated a whopping amount of 5.200 EUR while running hundreds of laps in the „Kinderverkehrsschule“ Berlin. This year we selected a foundation based in Liberia/ Berlin („Growing Tree Liberia“) and „Unter Druck“, an association based in Berlin and working with homeless people. Growing Tree Liberia works in an international context with children and orphans who may not have the means otherwise to attend school.

2ally.me & BBS!

Just in time for our Winterfest, we received our new merchandise for the secondary school students.

Since August we have successfully established a cooperation with the Berlin based start-up company 2ally.me. Their brand focusses on individuality, style and an eco-friendly production line. https://2ally.me/

BBS held annual second, annual, STE(Art)M week this November and one cannot help be inspired by the excitement and motivation generated by both students and adults alike. Our theme, The Moon - Stepping Stone to the Cosmo's, kicked off with an Art and Music display in our canteen. Student work, as well as some world-renowned projects, were on display.

Every year we have a week run dedicated to an ecological topic. This year’s focus was „the bee“. Especially in our primary school, our students learned about making honey, insects and bees as well as the week included many fun outings, like to the Naturkundemuseum of Berlin. However, this did not stop grade 8a who used the packaging of UHT milk cartons from the staff kitchen to learn about drypoint etching technique.
