Birthday celebrations are back!

We are now able to celebrate the children’s birthdays with them, as long as we follow these requirements:

• Individualised treats (cupcakes, donuts, etc) can be brought in either at the start of the day or the end of the day
• No Nuts! Please ensure that any food items sent in do not contain nuts, or any traces of nuts. Please check the ingredients.

· No candles

· The birthday treats must be individual portions – teachers will not be able to cut pieces of cake to be given out.

Please liaise directly with your child’s class teacher to inform them if you will be bringing in treats for your child’s birthday.

Primary Performance Week

The Primary Music Department is very excited to announce the first “Primary Performance Week” will be happening from 6th-16th October.

This is an opportunity for students who are having lessons on a musical instrument to share a short performance with their class. For Years 1-2 to this will happen in their normal class music lesson.

Children do not need to sign up, they should simply bring their music and instrument to the class on the timetabled day.

Please see below for the timetable of performances:

Tuesday 6th 1M, 1J, 1P, 1W, 2A, 2B,

Monday 12th 1B, 1K, 1T, 2J

(Tuesday 13th October is a holiday)

Wednesday 14th 1R, 2L

Thursday 15th 2K, 2S, 2N

Friday 16th 2M

This is a wonderful opportunity for children to share their talents, build confidence and perform in front of a small, supportive audience. Unfortunately on this occasion we will not be able to accommodate parents.

Should you have any questions regarding this event, please contact Mr Charlie chmc@patana.ac.th
