Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Lunar New Year is nearly here — a joyful time of colour, food, and family traditions. 2026 is the Year of the Horse, and we have exciting celebrations planned at BHS.

On Monday, 9 February 2026, at 1:15 p.m., we will gather in the school hall for our Lunar New Year assembly. Apologies for the previous confusion with dates.

The assembly will include performances by students, and will conclude with an exciting lion dance, kindly sponsored by the BHS PTA. Due to limited space in the hall, this event is for students only; however, we will livestream the assembly and lion dance on YouTube for families to watch at home. Please click HERE to access the livestream. Short highlights will also be shared on our social channels.

On this day, all students are encouraged to wear traditional Chinese clothing or bright, festive attire; performers should wear their performance outfits as needed.

On Friday, 13 February 2026, all students are invited to wear traditional Chinese clothing or bright, festive attire and join mixed‑age groups for hands-on cultural activities celebrating Lunar New Year customs. 

We look forward to celebrating with your children — Kung Hei Fat Choi! Wishing everyone a happy and prosperous Year of the Horse.

Warm regards,
The Mandarin Department

Dear Parents,

As our highly anticipated 2026 School Fair approaches in March, we warmly invite your support and donations for our Silent Auction. Last year’s wonderful contributions inspired generous bidding — let’s aim even higher this year!

Your Contributions Enrich BHS Learning

Proceeds from our Silent Auction will support the “Artist in Residence” project, featuring professional artist Francesco Lietti, who will lead collaborative painting workshops with our students. Together, they will create stunning artwork to decorate the school’s 1/F once its renovation is complete.  This initiative will nurture creativity, spark imagination, and beautify our school for families and visitors alike. Francesco brings extensive experience from collaborations with schools in Hong Kong and around the world. Learn more about his work here.
