Year 4 newsletter 16.06.23

We are kind, compassionate and respectful


We've had an amazing week of fund raising for our 2 charities; our online shop closed having raised over 100,000 baht and our two Farmer's Markets were a huge success.

To top it off, creating a product, designing our branding,  building a website and selling to customers has provided so many great learning opportunities for the children. 

We thank you for your ongoing support and look forward to seeing you at our final sale next week. 

A note from the Principal

Today sees the end to such a positive and productive week in Primary! 

Starting with the Dance Extravaganza, our students were then involved in the Bangkok Games; the Patana Primary; various interclass sporting events; end of unit learning exhibitions and, finally, the Year 2 sleepover! 

What a happy and joyous penultimate week of our academic year. This will be our last newsletter home to you, so it leaves me only to say a congratulations to our students, well done to our teachers and thank you to our parents and families for all your support.

I will be sending an end of year letter to you all next week but in the meantime, have a wonderful weekend.

Year 4- Young Entrepreneurs

Firstly, we would like to thank you so much for supporting our online shop. We managed to raise 101,000bht for our Year 4 Charities The Mercy Centre and the Good Shepherd Sisters Thailand.

As you know, we closed our online shop on Tuesday and since then we have led some Young Entrepreneur markets for our students in Primary.

As a culmination to our Term 3 theme, we would like to invite you to our FINAL Entrepreneur market, which will be held in the Primary hall, on Thursday 22nd June between 10:30 and 12:00. Students from Y7 -9 will also be attending, as they are eager to purchase the items. Because this is a market, the children have been able to adapt some of their products, so you will be able to purchase bespoke artisan products, alongside other tasty treats.

Also, there is a unique opportunity for you to take part in our online AUCTION, where our 31 businesses have created one off products that only one lucky person will be able to purchase. To take part in our auction please click on this link. To out bid your fellow bidders, you will need to visit the link on the form to see the highest bid and then put forward a bid that is higher.

Happy bidding and looking forward to seeing you next week.

Class lists for August 2023

On Monday, you will receive your child’s class list for August 2023, along with a welcome letter from their new class teacher.

If your child is currently in Year 1, Year 3, or Year 5, there are no changes to their existing class.

If your child is currently in Nursery, FS1, FS2, Y2 or Y4, they will be placed in a newly mixed class.

Please support your child in dealing with any disappointment if that is the case for them.

Sometimes being in a class with a particular friend is not beneficial for their learning.

When reading the class welcome letter, please click on the link to hear a message from your child’s new teacher.

We will be delighted to welcome all of our returning students back in the new school year.
