Cook Book!
Dear Parents, Teachers and Students,
I am happy to say that the cookbook that we started last year is finally done!
After a lot of hard work and effort, we managed to select the best 80 recipes
and design a lovely book.
Now it’s time to share it with you and your family. This may also be a perfect
gift for friends and family with the
Christmas holidays just around the
corner.
For anyone who would like to purchase a book, please fill out the Google form (https://forms.gle/WrNx5So62VnSDW4XA) with your correct details by the 24th of November. The books will then be printed and prepared for pick up. To collect the book/s that you pre-order, you, your child or any supporting adult can go to the Primary School Office with the correct amount of money.
Ideally the books will be ready for pick up around the 2nd of December, however a confirmed date will be shared when the books are ready.
There is a copy on display in the
primary school office that you can view before deciding to buy one for
yourself.
The price for each book will be 300 thb which will cover
the printing costs and support the donation that we will be giving to the local
daycare near our school, Thong Pai. To ensure that one complete donation can
be made, it would be best for all the books to be collected before the end of
the 1st term (13th December). Therefore, I
kindly ask you to adhere to the deadline.
Thank you in advance for your support during this project.

Well-Being
Air Quality at Patana - Please use this link for more information : https://www.patana.ac.th/air-quality-on-campus/
Sharing of snacks after school - Please can we remind parents that the sharing of snacks is not allowed in the primary school, including after school. This is to ensure all our student's are kept safe, as we have a number of students with potentially critical allergies. Many thanks for your support.
Nut free Primary School - For some children, any exposure to nuts is potentially very dangerous and can be life threatening. We do not allow any nuts to be brought into Primary. This includes snacks on school transport, birthday treats and food items brought in for any other special days. Thank you for your understanding.
PE and Jewellery - A polite reminder that during PE and swimming lessons, all jewellery including watches are removed. The PE staff will keep the items safe and return them to the students at the end of the lesson. Earrings should be removed or covered with tape.
Learning
For more information about the learning in Year 2, please visit our curriculum page: 'We are what we eat' as well as visiting our class blogs.
The Young Americans - International School Bangkok will be hosting workshops in music, dance and performance to students from 6 to 18 years old. The workshops are offering by the Young Americans on 25 – 26 January 2020. For more detail, please click here.
Parent Home Language Helpers - We are looking for parents who would like to be Home Language Helpers (PHLH). The PHLH will help to create opportunities for learners to experience their Home Language within their learning. This means that you could volunteer to use your Home Language to read a book with learners who speak the same language, or to spend time in the learning environment exploring and discovering in your native tongue. If you are interested in joining, please add your name to our Parent Home Language Helper database here or contact Ondine at onul@patana.ac.th if you have any questions.
Global Citizenship
The Prostheses Foundation of Thailand We would like to ask for families to collect 'ring pulls' and bring these into school. You can either deliver them to the drop-off point in the primary office or send them in to your child's teacher. The organisation uses ring pull donations to purchase a higher grade, more flexible material made from aluminium and steel to make artificial limbs. This process meets the international standard ISO 10328 for artificial limbs and ensures that the durability of the prosthetic is increased and patient safety is improved.
Birthdays
2K | Twisha [Tia] | 24-Nov |
2M | Sophia [Soph] | 18-Nov |
We enjoy mini-celebrations in class but ask that you pre-arrange a time with the teacher. Individual portions such as brownies and cupcakes are easier to share out. All food sent in to school must be nut free. As school policy, teachers are not able to give out party bags or other gifts as part of a birthday celebration.
Happy Birthday to the students celebrating their birthdays this coming week:
We wish you all a super day!
General Information
School shoes and PE - A polite reminder that school shoes should be worn every day and for PE your child needs a separate pair
of trainers. Please see guidance below.
Students wear black shoes that support the whole foot and allow them to be active.
School shoes require at least a thick strap to keep the shoe firmly in place.
Children can wear lace-ups if they can tie up their laces independently.
