As Dr. Geoffrey Fisher prepares to bid farewell to B.D. Somani International School, he reflects on his incredible journey as Head of School.
In his final vlog, Dr. Fisher shares heartfelt thoughts on his five-and-a-half years at the school. From strengthening B.D. Somani’s reputation as one of Mumbai’s—and India’s—top institutions to celebrating its dedicated faculty, improved infrastructure, and exceptional student achievements, his pride in the school’s progress shines through.
While leaving behind a thriving community and a committed leadership team, he emphasizes the importance of partnership—between students, families, and the school—for continued success.
Although his new role will take him away from day-to-day interactions with students, Dr. Fisher looks forward to staying connected, attending graduations, events, and plays, and watching B.D. Somani flourish from afar with a great sense of affection and pride.
Here’s to Dr. Fisher and the indelible mark he leaves on our school community.
We wish him the very best in his next chapter.

Tribes for Good: Community Project
Through our partnership with Tribes For Good, Grade 11 student Vipanshi Agarwal designed and led a series of workshops for women with skills in beauty and makeup — combining financial literacy, confidence-building, and awareness of cruelty-free practices. What she found was that the skills were already there. What was missing was someone connecting those skills to the idea of income. This is her reflection on what it means to create impact, and what she learned when she stopped trying to teach and started listening.
