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:
“No culture on earth outside of mid-century suburban America has ever deployed one woman per child without simultaneously assigning her such major productive activities as weaving, farming, gathering, temple maintenance, and tent-building. The reason is that full-time, one-on-one child-raising is not good for women or children.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“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)
“...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)
