A note from the Principal
1 November 2024
Welcome back to Term 1 B. Can we help? In a big and busy school such as ours, it is often harder to know who to reach out to with a question or query. Here are the contacts for the Primary Leadership Team, please do not hesitate to be in touch!
We are creative.

Sports Day
Lifesaving Lesson for Year 4 Students during non-residential week
During the upcoming residential weeks, whilst in school our Year 4 students will participate in a lifesaving lesson instead of their regular swimming lesson. This special session is designed to teach essential water safety skills in a fun, hands-on way, providing students with an introduction to lifesaving techniques.
For this lesson, students should bring lightweight, long-sleeve pyjamas to wear in the water, as this clothing helps simulate real-life rescue scenarios. Additionally, they will need a bag to store their wet clothes after the session.
Please see the schedule below for your child’s designated lifesaving lesson. For further questions, feel free to contact Jayne Jauncey, Head of Primary PE, at jaju@patana.ac.th.
Class blogs
Each week, we publish class blogs. The purpose of these is to give you an insight into your child's learning and what is happening in Year 4. Please visit the class blog and discuss your child's learning with them.

PE
Children should come to school in their PE kits on the days that they have PE lessons.
When your child has swimming lessons, they should come to school with the swim kit on and their uniform on - NOT their PE kit.
PE KIT:
Swimming lessons require black or Patana swim kit, swim hat, goggles and towel. Long sleeved rash vest / suit optional.
Athletics Normal PE kit, hat and water bottle.
Remember that students are expected to wear a different pair of shoes for school and for PE lessons.
As a reminder, if your child is unable to participate in a swimming lesson due to illness or other reasons, please contact the PE teacher directly, rather than the class teacher or Year Group Leaders.

General information
Birthdays
Parents should not bring in class gifts, balloons, bubbles, whistles, games, drinks etc. Your child's class teacher will politely ask you to take these home with you. We enjoy celebrating birthdays by sharing a birthday treat such as donuts or cakes.
We are a NUT FREE school. Please when ordering birthday treats double check before bringing treats on the campus.
Many toppings offered by some donut shops have flaked almonds in their toppings and peanut butter fillings. If you bring these in, unfortunately, we will have to send them home
Birthday Treats
- Children may bring in a special treat to share with the class.
- Please contact the class teacher to arrange a suitable time. In Year 4, you can do this on Monday or Wednesday as we have Spelling lessons on other days.
- Brownies, cupcakes, small donuts, and cake slices are easier for your child to give out.
- We do not give out drinks (e.g., bubble tea, sodas)
- Please reduce plastic packaging.
- We do not allow party bags or other gifts to be given out at school, either for birthdays, or other celebrations.
The following Year 4 children have celebrated their birthdays this week:
We wish you a very happy birthday!
