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:
“...I have never known a “movement” in the theater that did not work direct and serious harm. Indeed, I have sometimes felt that the very people associated with various “uplifting” activities in the theater are people who are astoundingly lacking in idealism.”
—Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)
“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)
“Justice begins with the recognition of the necessity of sharing. The oldest law is that which regulates it, and this is still the most important law today and, as such, has remained the basic concern of all movements which have at heart the community of human activities and of human existence in general.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
