On 22 April 2026, our Year 3 Student Council came together for a special lunch meeting. It was a lovely opportunity to enjoy a variety of delicious food while spending time together as a team.
As we shared our meal, we also took the chance to catch up on our CAT project and reflect on the progress we have made so far. The students showed great responsibility in discussing their ideas and contributions, demonstrating strong teamwork and commitment.
We also checked in on preparations for the upcoming Year 3 Times Tables-athon. The group worked collaboratively to create another video to share important information with the rest of the year group, helping to keep everyone informed and motivated.
Year 3 Times Tables-athon – Supporting Learning and Giving Back!
This term, our Year 3 students will be taking part in the exciting annual Times Tables-athon—a fun and meaningful sponsored times tables challenge. This event is designed not only to support our chosen charity, Thomas House, but also to help children build confidence and fluency in their times tables.
Throughout the lead-up to the event, students will challenge themselves by choosing three times tables to practise, focusing on those they want to improve. The goal is not competition with others, but personal progress—encouraging each child to develop quick recall and strengthen their mathematical understanding. This skill is essential, as it supports learning across many areas of maths, including fractions, area, and problem-solving.
Year 3 Smile Day – Well Done, Everyone!
A big well done to all our Year 3 students for taking part in Smile Day! It was wonderful to see such enthusiasm and kindness from everyone involved.
We are especially proud of the children for bringing 100 baht each to donate to the main fund for Operation Smile. Thanks to their generosity, we have been able to contribute to an important cause.
As our favourite time of year is just around the corner, we are now collecting donations for Thomas House, our wonderful charity.
This year, they have asked for educational toys suitable for children aged 5–12 years. These can include a range of items—from sewing kits to magnetic tiles. They are also requesting Lego sets for older children (aged 12 and up) and new or second-hand warm trousers or track pants, as it can get very cold in Chiang Rai during winter. Stationery in pencil cases is also an option this year.
On Wednesday, 1st October, our Year 3 Student Council shared some exciting and important messages about Tiger Spirit Day during our Year 3 assembly. The year 3 students also learned about Thomas House, our Year 3 charity partner, and how we can support their meaningful work.
Thomas House is a special place that provides care and support for children in need. You can read more about Thomas House HERE.
The Student Council also introduced some of the charity events we will be doing this academic year to raise funds for Thomas House and our main charity, including the Christmas Collection, Busking Day, Smile Day, and of course, Tiger Day!
