Welcome back to St Andrews International School Bangkok! There have been so many exciting developments over the summer. The counselling team has grown to be better equipped to support all members of the STA community.
The Primary School now has its own specialised school counsellor Ms Rachel Szewczuk, Ms Rachel is also a trained Art therapist so she is a wonderful creative addition to the team.
In High School you will find Mr Bevin; our Careers and University counsellor. Mr Bevin is sharing the space with Ms Amy who will continue as High School Social and Emotional counsellor. You can find them in the blue building; on the admin floor. They are lucky to have amazing new facilities which includes a relaxing waiting area.
If you are a French/German speaker we are also lucky to have Ms Simone who works part time across the school. Ms Simone will be in school two days a week and you can email her: simone.co@standrews.ac.th
To kickstart our parent support workshops we have invited Alessandra Rodel (parent coach) to come and present to any interested parents on 8th September @8.30 in the Exam Room at the primary school. Alessandra will be discussing the upcoming projects and workshops that she would like to offer the school community; please come along to hear more. Over the summer Alessandra has reflected on feedback given from last year and would like to present her ideas to you.
The counselling team will be sending out a more detailed newsletter to you in the next few weeks to highlight some of the plans we have for the coming year. As ever we look forward to supporting all the STA community in any way we can.
Remember you can email us if you have any concerns or questions:
Are you a new student at St Andrews International School Bangkok looking to dip your toes into the world of swimming? Or perhaps you are a current student who has always wanted to improve your skills in the pool? Then there is no better time than now to join the STA Marlins Swimming Squad. The Marlins Recreational Group is our latest swimming programme, welcoming all beginners on Tuesdays after school.
At St Andrews Bangkok, we believe that every child has the potential to discover and develop a unique musical voice. Our Instrumental Programme offers students an extraordinary opportunity to explore and master a range of musical instruments, fostering a lifelong love for music and enhancing their cognitive and creative development.
What an exciting time this is for the Aquatics Department at St Andrews International School Bangkok. During the summer, as we basked in the glow of remarkable news of our swimming coach and athlete qualifying for the 2024 Olympic Games, the result made it even better. The Olympics, an event that unites athletes from around the world in a celebration of sportsmanship and human spirit, has come particularly close to home for our community this year, inspiring students, staff, and parents alike.
