The annual Christmas Shoebox Collection in Year 2 was once again a tremendous success. This year, our generous families donated an incredible 255 shoeboxes, all of which have now made their way to the Children of the Forest organization.
These gifts will bring joy to children who might not otherwise receive something special at this time of year. Your kindness will make a real difference.
A heartfelt thank you to every parent and child in Year 2 for your compassion, generosity, and support.
Year 2 Spellathon Triumph: Raising 125,370 THB to Empower Stateless Children Through Education!
A Celebration of Spelling, Teamwork, and Compassion!
The Year 2 Spellathon was more than just a test of vocabulary—it was a powerful demonstration of how small actions can create big change. With boundless energy and determination, our young spellers took on the challenge, turning each correctly spelled word into a donation for Children of the Forest (COF), an incredible organization dedicated to breaking down barriers to education for stateless and migrant children.
Year 2 recently held their Term Two Community Fundraising Event, the Children of the Forest Challenge, on Friday 5th April. This event, as always, proved to be very popular and highly successful. This was a non-competitive event with children encouraged to do their best and enjoy themselves whilst learning new spelling words.
The event raises important funds for our sponsored charity Children of the Forest, located in Kanchanaburi Province.
We are very pleased to announce that Year 2 raised a fantastic ฿87,903.
As part of World Book Day, children across the Primary School were encouraged to make a donation of a new or near-new Thai language book which was collected for our respective charities.
These books, well over 200 items including some board games, have now made their way to the Children of the Forest Charity and been gratefully received.
Making donations such as these, really do have an enormous impact on the lives and opportunities of these children. For many local schools, books are a real luxury and due to their expensive costs, many local schools simply do not enjoy this wonderful resource.
Friendship Friday is an annual whole-school Patana event which has two important objectives; 1) connect children through fun and friendship, 2) to learn more about our Year Group charity and raise important funds for them.
In Year 2, our nominated charity is Children of the Forest Foundation. This charity is located on the Thai-Myanmar border in the province of Kanchanaburi and serves a vital role in supporting displaced and homeless children and their mothers. It provides education to children and teenagers which empowers them and opens opportunities to improve their life chances. The charity also provides important shelter, food and medical support.
