Recycling - We need your junk!

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure… so please save us your trash! Next term, we will need lots of junk to make and create with, so please keep all your clean junk over the holidays and send it in to school.

General Information

Parking stickers required

From the start of Term 2, only vehicles with a blue Patana Sticker will be allowed on to the main campus. Cars with no Patana Sticker must be parked over the road at the Sports Complex car park. If your car does not yet have a Patana Sticker, please visit Reception and register your car.

PTG Reps

If you would like to get in touch with the PTG, we have a Primary representative and a Year 2 representative. Their contact details are as follows:

• Primary Rep - Amélie: ptgprimary@patana.ac.th
• Year 2 Rep - Apollo: ptgy2@patana.ac.th

School shoes

As part of their Patana school uniform, our students wear plain black shoes with no coloured trim.

If your child is still coming to school in coloured trainers or shoes, please purchase plain black school shoes over the half term break.

Shoes should support healthy foot growth.

All shoes require at least a strap to keep the shoe firmly in place. No ballet pumps.

Children can wear lace-ups if they can tie up their laces independently.

Plain black school shoes can be sourced in many shops and department stores.

If your child has to wear other shoes for a specific reason, please let us know.

These photographs are all examples of suitable plain black shoes.

Birthdays

Happy Birthday to the students celebrating their birthdays this coming week:

We wish you a super day!
