Year 13 IB Visual Arts students at St Andrews International School Bangkok have been practising their drawing skills and meeting artistic alumni.
It has been a busy week for Year 13 Visual Arts students. Not only have they been working hard to develop work for their final exhibition in March 2019, but they have also been refreshing their drawing skills with a “gestural drawing” workshop. A great technique for improving drawing skills is to draw using the whole arm, with a piece of charcoal, or similar material, attached to the end of a long stick. It helps the artist loosen up, and working at arms length allows one to see one’s work better. The resulting images are fresh and expressive, capturing a sense of the dynamism of the subject. On Friday they were also treated to a visit by alumni art student Gene Karujitr, who is currently studying Fine Art at Chelsea School of Art in London. Gene left St Andrews in 2016 having graduated with a level 7 in IB Visual Arts and shared her advice for building portfolios, Art school applications and surviving life as an Visual Arts student.
Last Friday, the STA Primary campus was transformed into a celebration of all things maths! The day was packed with engaging, hands-on activities across all year groups, making maths truly come alive for our students.
Senior student at St Andrews Bangkok, Pun (Year 13), devises an innovative solution for effective waste management. Recently, he completed an ambitious project: an AI-powered waste sorting system. After much research and testing, he got the system to work and put the model to use in one of our rooms at school!
Physics students from St Andrews Bangkok made quite an impression at the Beamline for Schools (BL4S) competition and won the Best Outreach Award for their brilliant work. BL4S is a prestigious global physics contest organised by CERN (the European Laboratory for Particle Physics in Geneva, Switzerland) and DESY (the German Electron Synchrotron in Hamburg, Germany), inviting High School students worldwide to propose detailed experiments to be conducted at a particle accelerator beamline. While our students did not win the main prize of conducting their experiment in Geneva, they still stood out and were recognised from an entry of over 400 teams.
If you love the pool and exhilarating team sports, water polo might be the best sport you haven’t tried yet. And the timing could not be better, because the Marlins Water Polo training programme at St Andrews International School Bangkok is on the rise. Joining our dynamic team not only offers you a fun and challenging experience, it also provides a clear pathway for improving your skills and competing in local championship leagues.
