BIS student on Archery Tournament

  Congratulations to Gustavo Barcellos on his first Archery Tournament appearance. After a lot of success in doing archery at BIS Gustavo (12th grade) is taking on new challenges in Archery. This weekend he participated in an official tournament sponsored by the International Field Archery Association. Even though he was shooting with a different bow than he is is used to practice at BIS, and at a much further distance (18m) he did really well. Coach Batista (archery coach at BIS) is proud of Gustavo and hopes to see more BIS students participating in such competitions. Next tournament will be in March. Let's go Eagles!

Basketball teams finished strong

 

The boys basketball teams finished the season with two strong performances. The JV team lost a close game to EDN on the semi-finals (25 to 28) and beat the French School to clinch the third place for the season. The Varsity team had a great game also against EDN with a dramatic finish at the free throw line, losing by just one point. Then another excellent display of basketball and team work against the French School also falling short by just one point. Despite missing a few players on the last games the Eagles have proven to be a strong competitive team on this league and we are certainly looking forward to an even better season next year. Way to go Eagles!!! Next we'll have Christmas break and after that we'll switch gears for the soccer season. Great job to all players who represented BIS this season!
