✨ What an incredible day celebrating our BISR Mumpreneurs! ✨

Our annual Mumpreneurs Event at our Al Waha campus was a huge success, bringing together our school community to celebrate the creativity, talent, and entrepreneurial spirit of our amazing mums. The day began with inspiring keynote speakers, followed by an engaging Q&A session with our Year 12 BTEC Business and Economics students, giving them valuable insight into the world of business and entrepreneurship.

The excitement continued as our Primary students explored the vibrant marketplace, followed by Senior students and staff, before opening the event to parents. With over 20 unique businesses showcasing everything from handmade crafts and fashion to photography, books, homeware, delicious treats, and more, the auditorium was filled with energy, conversation, and community spirit.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended, supported our Mumpreneurs, and helped create such a warm and buzzing atmosphere. We are incredibly proud to celebrate the diverse talents within our BISR community and look forward to doing it all again next year! 💛
