Our garden area at school was recently turned into an archaeology site for Year 3s hunting for dinosaur bones.

Today saw the FS1 students start to arrive and join the school. They were greeted by Ms Isla and her team and taken with their parents to the wonderful FS1 area where they played and got familiar with the surroundings.

I hope this message finds you well and full of excitement about the start of a brand new academic year. It was great to see our school buzzing with life once again as students, with faces both familiar and new, filling the hallways, classrooms, playgrounds, and learning spaces. 

The Year 3 students had their Expo last week to show their parents all the work they had been doing on their topic of The Rainforest.

This year's FOBISIA Primary Poetry Competition invited students in Key Stage 2 to write poems around the theme 'Where I Go'.  They could interpret this in any way they wished. There were two categories: Years 3&4 and Years 5&6.

Year 2 students opened the morning by performing some fantastic songs capturing the spirit of the Expo. They showed their parents all they have learnt about the tropical minibeasts that live around us.

Last week was the Key Stage 2 production of HONK!. Please read Mr Paul’s ‘Headslines’ for details of this wonderful performance and thanks to all the staff that worked so hard to make the show come to life. Here are a few more photos for you to enjoy!

This week will see the performance of HONK! The Key Stage 2 production. The cast and crew have been working tirelessly all year to make this wonderful show come to life with incredible costumes, wonderful scenery and amazing acting and singing. The dates of the performances are Tuesday, 24 May 2023, Wednesday, 25 May 2023 and Thursday, 26 May 2023.

Last week we launched our first SuSTEAMability week. It was a fantastic experience that all the staff and students enjoyed. Students got involved in a wide range of sustainable projects.

Last week saw the students and teachers all celebrate the coronation of King Charles III.

Our FS3 sustainability project was a huge success, with the children learning about the importance of sustainability and exploring different ways to be kinder to the planet.

St Andrews Primary School celebrated on Friday the first Spanish Language Day, for the occasion of the UN Spanish Language Day which is celebrated internationally to honour the 21 countries where it is the official language.

Welcome back to the final term of this academic year. I hope that everyone had a very relaxing Songkran holiday and that you are feeling refreshed to start our first full week of this term.

As a BSO (British Schools Overseas) International School, STA will celebrate the coronation of King Charles III and the Queen Consort on Wednesday May 3rd.

As you know, the Thai Department will hold a celebration of Songkran Festival, a traditional Thai New Year at the School on Wednesday 5th of April,

 There is a special atmosphere throughout the breaks and lunch times as different people put on their performance and hope that attendees will donate a few baht for the charity.
