Be Ambitious
Message from the Head of Early Years Centre
Dear Parents,
This week, as the summer and the end of the school year beckons, we have
welcomed many of you into school to discuss your children’s progress and
to make plans for next year. Here at Dabrowskiego the groupings are a
little different to Limanowskiego in terms of the numbers of classes in each
year group and also the children leaving us at the end of the year to begin
exciting new adventures all around the world.
To this end, we have made the decision to divide the year groups as they
move up through the Early Years centre this year because many of the classes are now a little uneven
in terms of the spread of children. We will, of course, be keeping friendship groupings together as the
children go up.
I would echo Ms Richardson’s sentiments and ask that, if you feel that your child has a specific need
in the classroom, please let us know as we will always do our best to place the children in a class and
with a teacher where they will flourish.
Our assembly this week centred on the importance of looking after our own belongings in school
and returning any items found at home to school. It has been a pleasure to see our school lost
property box reducing in size this week during the parents’ evenings and many ‘lost’ reading books
have come back to us. Please have another look at home this weekend just to see if there is anything
that needs to be returned. We welcome back all items of sports kit, books, water bottles, odd gloves,
socks………………thank you.
During our assembly we also practised some very special songs for a very special day in two weeks
time, but we can’t tell you anything else, because it is a secret.
I hope you enjoy another lovely weekend.
Kind Regards,
Deborah Hopper

Message from the Head of Primary
Dear Parents,
Over the past three months we have focused on the recruitment of
exceptional teachers. Mr Waterhouse, Mrs Hopper and I have spoken to
dozens of applicants for positions at Dabrowskiego and Limanowskiego.
Our expectation is that teachers will be exceptional practitioners and
have a proven track record of creating exciting and inspiring learning
environments. In September, we will be welcoming a number of new staff
members across the school. They will be joining us from UK schools as
well as several highly respected international schools abroad. New staff
profiles will be added to the School website in the coming weeks.
This year we will not be making any major changes to class groupings. Obviously there will
be minor changes when the number of classes in a year group is increasing (Year 1 to Year 2, Year
5 to Year 6). Primary staff found that this was very successful in September 2015, with students
settling very quickly into their new year groups. In the majority of cases, students have formed
firm friendships over the past 12 months and it is important that as they commence the new
academic year, they feel secure in their social circles.
I urge parents NOT to send emails to the school making requests for certain teachers. Rather I
encourage parents to provide us with information regarding the specific needs of your child. It
is the responsibility of the Head of Primary and staff members at The British School to use our
professional judgement for class placements. Our staff know and understand our students they work with them every day, observing, talking and learning with them. Please rest assured
we will do the best for you and all of our students.

Passion and Enrichment at The British School, Warsaw
Here at The British School of Warsaw, we not only seek to deliver the highest academic curriculum
but we aim to provide a vigorous holistic and enriching curriculum. Last week, Year 5
had a guest speaker, Mr. Maciejewski, to talk about his job as a photographer. Mr. Maciejewski,
part of our talented parent community at TBSW, kindly gave up this time to come in and speak
to the children. He spoke about his photography and what is required to be a photographer (an
aspect which Year 5 are covering in Computing this term) but he also delivered a message that
all children, parents and teachers should never lose sight of – a message of ‘Passion’ and
‘Expression’.
The meaningful change in this creative age, which we all seek as educators, parents and pupils,
can mostly be found through independent and collaborative creativity. This is ignited by passion,
in all that we seek to undertake and do. We need and seek to instil passion in our teachers,
parents and most importantly the pupils we facilitate in becoming ‘The Best That They Can Be’.
The past few weeks (and on a daily basis) we have seen a host of examples of passion – some
examples include: daily teaching and learning, the Primary drama production, the Year 6 visit to
MIT and the upcoming talent show (arranged by our very active and passionate pupil council!).
What was also importantly highlighted, through Mr Maciejewski’s own experience, was the
emphasis on it never being to late to find or change your passion. Passion is what will and
should shape our future society for the ‘greater good’.

Message from the Head of Secondary
Dear Parents,
As the weather took a turn for the better there seemed to be a spring
in everyone’s step. We have achieved some marvelous things of late
and I have included some articles in this newsletter to let you know of
some of our students’ achievements.
The examination season is well and truly upon us now. Both IB and
IGCSE students have begun external examinations and now the rest
of the Secondary school are gearing up towards their internal exams.
I have already sent some information out to parents regarding these exams and would like to
highlight a few important points below.
• Internal school examinations form only a part of a pupil’s overall assessment.
Teachers assess throughout the academic year in other ways too such as:
- classwork
- homework
- effort, participation and behaviour.
• School examinations are also of procedural importance giving our pupils the opportunity to
organise their notes and resources, consolidate learning and practise vital exam skills.
• Time should be spent reviewing the topics covered however, this does not mean that every
conceivable moment should be spent pouring over school books; breaks and recreational
time are extremely important too.
As well as exam and report preparation, teachers are also busy preparing for some other
major events taking place in June such as Green Camp, Sports Day, a History trip to Lublin, a
cultural trip to Berlin as well as an ongoing sequence of Form bonding trips which are focused
on educational outings.
Busy times for all and so much better now the sun is shining!
Enjoy your weekend.

ICELAND TRIP
Forty-seven Year Nine students from The British School departed for Iceland on
Wednesday May 4th for a five day journey to see waterfalls, volcanoes, geysers, and
swim in hot springs. The students were able to explore a landscape very different
than the one in Poland. They were also able to learn about the Icelandic culture
and language. Upon returning to school the Year Nine students were able to share
their experiences with the rest of the school at Tuesdays assembly. Special thanks
to Ms. Ellis, Mr. Pukos, Mr. Hapon, Ms. Hoyland, and Mr. Marwood for organizing and
supervising the trip!
After a twelve-hour journey, we were positively exhausted, much to the delight of our teachers,
who for once had no trouble getting us to sleep. Also, some of us were worried because of the
supposed ‘tight itinerary’ of the upcoming day; however, we would later find that it was all
worth it. Next day, after an early breakfast in Keflavik, we rode off to the south coast, where we
would head eastwards, to Hotel Dyrholáey, named after a nearby cliff. On our way, we made
numerous stops, including the waterfalls Gljúfrabúi and Skógafoss, as well as Sólheimajökul
(the ‘sun-house glacier’).
On Friday, we started our day by walking on a black sand beach by the tiny coastal settlement
of Vik, whilst our tour guide, Gunnar, told us about the volcanic plugs. Folklore tells a different
version of how the spectacular monument was formed. Next we walked on a different black
sand beach near Reykjavik, where we spent the time looking at the magnificent basalt cliffs
and caves. After this, we drove to Reykjavik to stay in the Hotel Cabin.
On Saturday, we took a break from touring the beautiful countryside to discover the capital
city, Reykjavik. In the morning, we headed for an outdoor swimming pool, a common
attraction in Iceland. Jumping from the ice cold water to the naturally heated pool, both
teachers and students had a great time. After a quick lunch, we headed to the Icelandic
equivalent of Nowy Świat, Bankastraeti, for some shopping. Next, we saw an interesting video
on the history of Iceland and the Northern Lights. After roaming the city streets a little longer,
we ate at the Burger Factory and returned to the hotel to enjoy the rest of the day. At 11:30p.m,
those of us who were still awake went outside to the waterfront, as we had heard there was a
chance the Northern Lights would be visible that night. Unfortunately, we weren’t very lucky,
although we did get to see a beautiful sunset.
Secondary News
On our last full day in Iceland, we started off with a visit to the National Park . One of the
main attractions there is the site where Iceland’s first parliament was held, as well as the lake
in which female criminals were drowned. The area’s geology is also very interesting, as it is
located between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates, which move apart at an
average of 3 cm per year. At noon, we visited the site of Geyser, a sprouting hot spring which
gave its name to all the world’s other geysers. There is also another geyser, Strokkur, which
we saw erupt multiple times, reaching an impressive height of 30 metres. Next, we visited a
double waterfall, which drops around 33 metres and then plunges into a mile long gorge. Our
last stop was the Secret Lagoon, a natural hot spring and bathing pool which stays 38 to 40
degrees all year round. We enjoyed a relaxing hour there before heading to dinner and then to
the airport, ready for our 12-hour journey.
With dances, pull ups and lots of sleep and coffee, even the way back to Warsaw (which took
a whole night!) was fun. Overall, the five days in Iceland were a huge success and everyone
enjoyed it immensely. A huge thanks to Ms Ellis, who organized the trip, Ms Hoyland, Mr Pukos,
Mr Hapon, and Mr Marwood, without whom this trip would not have happened, as well as to
Gunnar and Kalli, our tour guide and driver in Iceland.

News from the Sports Desk
It has been another interesting week here in the PE department and you can be
amazed at how busy a week can be. This week we celebrate some truly outstanding
sporting performances from students in both the Primary and Secondary School.
TBS Crowned Mokotowska District Schools Champions!
This week the football world saw two amazing happenings. The first was of course Leicester
City winning the Premier League. As a long suffering Everton fan (nil satis nisi optimum) I looked
on in sheer joy and admiration as the hardest working and very much the best ‘team’ were
crowned champions. How their supporters must love this moment.
More importantly last week the U13’s Boys football team were crowned Mokotowska District
champions, the first time in our schools history! In a thrilling final, the lads found themselves
down 6-1 and looked out of it. One half-time team talk later from the inspirational Mr. Marwood
(surely a contender for FIFA Coach of the Year)and a little shift in tactics saw the boys fight back
to win 7-6! What a come-back, what a game!
The journey however was not over, as we went to represent Mokotowska District in the Warsaw
Schools district playoffs. Winning and drawing two further matches moved us on to the quarter
finals before a draw and a 2-1 loss (to a team, who on another day we would have beaten) put
us out. To get that far has been a great achievement and while we returned home frustrated,
this reflects the belief in the school that we should be aspiring to be the best in Warsaw. COME
ON YOU BULLDOGS!!!
Athletics
Last weekend Alyssa (Year 4) and Nathan (Year 5) Firla competed in an Area athletics competition here in Warsaw, running 800m. Both incredibly finished second in their respective races
and attained personal best times at the same time. Congratulations to both and it’s great to see
TBS students competing and putting our school on the map. Check out their times below:
Nathan Firla: 2mins 39 seconds
Alyssa Firla: 2mins 51 seconds
I am informed that if we convert this into KM/H then Nathan averaged 18.3KMH while Alyssa
was a shade under 17KMH… that’s amazing!!!

Thanks to all who have paid in their Swimathon money. The deadline for handing was Friday
6th May and while we may take some stragglers early next week we would now like to count
everything that we have raised pass this on to our selected charities. I will let you know all of

“W raju łakomczuchów”
Moja niesamowita fabryka czekolady znajduje się na Syberii. Cała zbudowana jest z ogromnych
bloków czekoladowych, a dzięki syberyjskiej temperaturze nie topi się. Fabryka zajmuje
powierzchnię 3 km2 i ma 20 pięter. Każde piętro zrobione jest w innym smaku czekolady, na
przykład: białej, deserowej, gorzkiej, mlecznej, miętowej i truskawkowej. Cały budynek ma
kształt kostki czekolady. W środku są ogromne maszyny, które mielą czekoladę i zamieniają
ją w tabliczki o różnych wyśmienitych smakach. Dzięki nowoczesnemu wyposażeniu, każde z
pięter produkuje czekoladę o innym smaku.
Moja fabryka bardzo mi się podoba, ponieważ uwielbiam zapach i smak czekolady.
Kostek Augustyniak, Year 4
"W Raju Łakomczuchów "
Dawno, dawno temu istniała największa w historii fabryka czekolady, która znajdowała się na
samym środku suchej, piaszczystej pustyni. Produkowana tam był czekolada najwyższej jakości.
W fabryce można było spróbować przeszło 200 smaków czekolady. W zależności od tego, do
którego pomieszczenia się wchodziło. W jednym pachniało mleczną czekoladą, w innym gorzką,
jeszcze w innym białą. W pewnym skrzydle roztaczał się zapach truskawek w czekoladzie i
czekolady karmelowej. Można było w tym gigantycznym budynku odnaleźć właściwie każdy
smak na świecie. Po wejściu do dużego pokoju moim oczom ukazały się większe i mniejsze
maszyny do produkowania czekolady. Pracowały tam tajemnicze karły, które ubrane były w
biało zielone bluzki w kratkę i czerwone spodnie. W fabryce znajdowała się również maszyna,
która mieszała czekoladę. Obok niej znajdowała się także maszyna, która segregowała nasiona
kakaowca, krystalizowała żeby była twarda, a później pakowała ją z w małe pudełeczka. Był też
tester odpowiedni dźwięk przy przełamywaniu. Jeżeli nie wydawała odpowiedniego dźwięku
to od razu odrzucano ją do pokoju z odpadkami. Później pakowano i wrzucano do wielkich
kartonowych pudeł i dostarczano do…… Nikt nie wiedział gdzie. Było jeszcze pomieszczenie,
gdzie produkowano posągi z czekolady. Kiedy po wizycie w fabryce wyszłam na zewnątrz
znalazłam się w pięknym ogrodzie. Obejrzałam się za siebie i zauważyłam, że nad wejściem
do fabryki widnieją inicjały właściciela. Inicjały pochodziły od mojego imienia i nazwiska. To
ja byłam właścicielką. Bardzo podobało mię się to miejsce. Na pożegnanie zapakowałam całą
walizkę mojej ulubionej gorzkiej czekolady.

FABRYKA CZEKOLADY "SMAKI WSZECHŚWIATA"
W mojej fabryce "Smaki Wszechświata" pachnie niebiańsko. Codziennie wymyślamy nowe
rodzaje czekolady, na przykład trawowy, kwiatowy i koperkowy (dla fanów zieleniny). Mamy
też czekolady kolorowe, ze składników naturalnych. Fabryka Smaki Wszechświata jest
supernowoczesna, pracuje w niej 90% robotów, ludzie tylko ją nadzorują i dowożą towar do
sklepów. Fabryka ma 60 pięter z czego 50% to pokoje sortujące. W fabryce ciągle produkujemy
nowe kształty (takiej jak podpowiada nam wyobraźnia). Wytwarzamy tysiące rodzajów czekolad,
ale nasza ulubiona to czekolada domowa, nazywamy ją czeko-krówką.
PRZEPIS NA CZEKO-KRÓWKĘ:
1 szklanka cukru
½ kostki masła
2 łyżki kakao ( może być więcej)
200 g mleka w proszku
Wykonanie:
Wszystkie składniki z wyjątkiem mleka w proszku zagotuj i przestudź. Po przestudzeniu wsyp
mleko w proszku (najlepiej wsypywać przez sitko żeby nie było grudek i małymi porcjami)
miksująca całą masę ( mieszaj intensywnie drewnianą łyżką). Na koniec można dodać bakalie.
Keksówkę ( lub inne naczynie) o wymiarach 10cm x 20 cm wyłóż folią aluminiową (my używaliśmy
papieru do pieczenia) I przełóż do niej masę czekoladową. Wstaw do lodówki I poczekaj aż
stężeje. Krój na plastry o grubości około 0,5 cm.
A POTEM ZAJADAJ!!!

„W raju łakomczuchów”
Fabryka czekolady, którą miałem szczęście zobaczyć znajduje się w Warszawie w dzielnicy Praga.
Jest to fabryka "Wedla", która jest ogromna i przepiękna. Budynek Wedla to przedwojenna
konstrukcja, w której znajduje się mnóstwo sal i korytarzy. Podczas wycieczki zobaczyliśmy
jak wyrabia się słodycze, których mieliśmy okazję spróbować. Zwiedzając fabrykę czekolady
napotkaliśmy na różne postacie i przedmioty, wykonane z czekolady które miało się ochotę
zjeść . Wycieczka do fabryki czekolady to przepiękna podróż, która pozostanie w moim sercu
na zawsze. Będę pamiętał ten niesamowity dzień i zapach płynnej czekolady unoszący się w
powietrzu.

Fabryka Antoniny
Fabryka Antoniny jest średniej wielkości i ma starodawny charakter. Fabryka otoczona jest
pięknym ogrodem botanicznym, który też nadaje charakter fabryce. To fabryka czekolady, w
której produkuje się na dzień 100 tabliczek czekolady. Drzwi do fabryki przypominają tabliczkę
czekolady. W mojej fabryce słychać muzykę POP. Moja fabryka jest jednopiętrowa. Jak wchodzisz widać mini kawiarnie, w której można kupić napój czekoladowy.Sama produkcja jest z tyłu.
Czekolada jest zrobiona z ziaren kakaowca, które sprowadzane są z Afryki lub Ameryki Południowej.
Dookoła jest magiczna atmosfera. Pomyślcie 40-50 ziaren dla jednej tabliczki. W mojej opinii ta
fabryka ma przyszłość.

Recenzja przedstawienia pt. „Piotruś Pan”
„Piotruś Pan” to niebywały, ekscytujący i fantastyczny spektakl, który przedstawia Teatr Buffo.
Jest to świetny musical dla małych i dużych dzieci, a także dla całej rodziny.
Z radością go obejrzałam!
Książkę „Piotruś Pan” napisał James Barry, a polskie libretto – czyli słowa do piosenek – Jeremi
Przybora. Wspaniałą muzykę do spektaklu skomponował Janusz Stokłosa, artysta związany z
Buffo. Cały musical wyreżyserował dyrektor teatru – Janusz Józefowicz.
W spektaklu występują nie tylko zawodowi aktorzy, ale także dzieci (gra Witek, Leon, Amelka –
moi znajomi). Wszyscy grają swobodnie i naturalnie. Aktorzy tańczą, co bardzo mi się podobało.
Układy taneczne są trudne, ale precyzyjnie wykonane.
Chciałam się przyczepić… ale naprawdę nie było do czego!
Kostiumy są kolorowe, śmieszne, dzieci wesołe. Najbardziej zabawny jest Golden Retriver, który
w przedstawieniu gra suczkę Nanę. Jest absolutnie cudowny i można się w nim zakochać.
Trochę nudziła mnie na końcu dorosła Wendy. Mówiła monotonnie, dość długo i to nie było
zajmujące. Nie podobało mi się także, że nazwy miejsc, które znam z książki brzmiały nieco
inaczej, np. Nibylandię nazwano Niebywalencją. Za to Indianie byli bardzo aktywni i posługiwali
się śmiesznym językiem. Wódz Indian ze swoimi gestami był przekonywujący.
Musical jest naprawdę lekki i zabawny, nie można na nim ani zasnąć, ani się nudzić (patent z
panem Darling w budzie spróbuję wykorzystać w domu).
Chętnie poszłabym zobaczyć ten spektakl jeszcze raz!
Gorąco polecam!

Every year The British School, Warsaw produces a Yearbook – a type of book
published annually to record, highlight and commemorate the past year of a school.
We give the opportunity for companies to advertise in our Yearbook.
There are two options: full page advert and half a page advert.
There are over 1,000 students attending our school, therefore your advertisement
will reach out to thousands of parents and their colleagues from the international
business community through to the diplomatic core.

Szanowni Państwo,
Każdego roku The British School, Warsaw wydaje Yearbook - album upamiętniający
kończący się rok szkolny, zawierający zdjęcia poszczególnych klas, z ważnych
wydarzeń oraz imprez szkolnych.
Oferujemy firmom możliwość zareklamowania się w naszym Yearbooku.
Do wyboru są dwa formaty: reklama całostronnicowa lub reklama na pół strony.
Do naszej szkoły uczęszcza ponad 1000 uczniów, dlatego też Państwa reklama dotrze
do tysięcy rodziców naszych dzieci oraz ich znajomych z kręgów międzynarodowego
biznesu i korpusu dyplomatycznego.
