PRINCIPAL'S NOTE
Change has been the rule of the world and like all else, much has changed in the way we impart education. I strongly believe that schools must act as enablers towards helping students to think, engage, and question. This is achieved by activating the natural curiosity of learners and encouraging active participation of learners, building greater conceptual understanding and developing greater ownership of learning. Giving a purpose to learning and allowing children to be thinkers, innovators, and problem-solvers has been the guiding principle under which Billabong High International School has nurtured several achievers in academics & beyond. I welcome your child to Billabong High International School- The School Of Thought, our thoughtfully curated programs in academics and beyond, nurture and shape the way our students think and learn. We are transforming today’s learners into tomorrow’s thinkers and leaders.
