Wow! Sports Day was a huge hit with the children. They loved it and I'm sure they were all quite tired afterwards. Lots of smiles all around. Thank you to everyone who came to support this event.
A note from the Principal
A huge thank you to all our parents who joined us for the Y3–Y6 and Y1–Y2 Sports Days.
For Y3–Y6, this was the first year of our new Sports Day format, and it was fantastic to see the children taking part with such enthusiasm, supported by so many families. We hope you enjoyed the day as much as the children did.

Positive Behaviour
As you walk around the school, you are almost certain to spot our Safe – Curious – Kind posters.
Many, if not all, of the behaviours and attitudes we want for our students can be explicitly taught.

Museum Trips - Important
We are very much looking forward to our upcoming Year 3 museum trips and wanted to make you aware of a small possibility that one or more of the visits may need to be cancelled at short notice.
Due to preparations and ceremonial rehearsals connected with the upcoming Royal Funeral, there is a possibility that the museum may be required to close with as little as 24 hours’ notice, or potentially on the day of our visit. We fully appreciate and respect the importance of these arrangements and understand that the museum itself may also receive confirmation at very short notice.
The museum has assured us that they will inform the school as soon as they are able to do so, and we will, of course, communicate any changes to parents as promptly as possible.
Should a trip unfortunately be unable to go ahead, we have planned alternative activities that will take place within school. These will continue to focus on Thai history and Thai mythical creatures, linking closely to the learning planned for the museum visit. While we appreciate that this cannot fully replicate the experience of visiting the museum, we will endeavour to make the day as engaging, exciting and different from a normal school day as possible.
We very much hope that all of our planned visits will be able to go ahead as scheduled, but wanted to make families aware of this possibility in advance. Thank you very much for your understanding and flexibility.
