Activities
Bahrain Bayan School activities include Model United Nations in Bahrain and abroad, athletic activities including volleyball, basketball and football, in which the school competes against rival schools such as the Modern Knowledge Schools (MKS), IKNS, and Bahrain School, to name a few. The school also participates in the local TradeQuest programme, and has an active Student Council. The school's journalism department, which is separated into English journalism and Arabic journalism, publishes annual magazines in both languages.
The school has special days, such as Fun Day, Sports Day, and National Day, although this day is usually celebrated before the actual holiday on December 16 due to time constraints.
The school hosts plays, in English and Arabic, usually supervised by a theatre arts teacher. The latest of such was titled The Seussification of Romeo and Juliet and had an all-student cast.On Wednesdays the cafeteria has an award winning shawarma day, where there is a royal rumble to see who gets the first one. On Mondays, there is samboosa day and there is a 75 man royal rumble for the famous samboosas.

Famous quotes containing the word activities:
“If it is to be done well, child-rearing requires, more than most activities of life, a good deal of decentering from one’s own needs and perspectives. Such decentering is relatively easy when a society is stable and when there is an extended, supportive structure that the parent can depend upon.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“I am admonished in many ways that time is pushing me inexorably along. I am approaching the threshold of age; in 1977 I shall be 142. This is no time to be flitting about the earth. I must cease from the activities proper to youth and begin to take on the dignities and gravities and inertia proper to that season of honorable senility which is on its way.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Juggling produces both practical and psychological benefits.... A woman’s involvement in one role can enhance her functioning in another. Being a wife can make it easier to work outside the home. Being a mother can facilitate the activities and foster the skills of the efficient wife or of the effective worker. And employment outside the home can contribute in substantial, practical ways to how one works within the home, as a spouse and as a parent.”
—Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
