The first Beaconhouse International Student Convention (BISC) was held in Bangkok, Thailand in January 2016, followed by BISC 2017, held in January in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. A co-curricular and cultural sports event, BISC 2017 saw more than 160 boys and girls from Beaconhouse schools in Oman, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Pakistan.
