A note from the Principal As we welcome the Lunar New Year, may your homes be filled with happiness, harmony, and countless blessings. We enjoyed a wonderful assembly and celebration today, and let us embrace the traditions that unite us and create lasting memories.
A heartfelt thank you to the PTG for organizing the eagerly awaited annual Fun Day tomorrow! Your efforts make our school community vibrant and joyful. I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Please remind your child to bring their spelling books with them every Monday and encourage them to learn the spellings.
Thank you for your support.
PE lessons
All students MUST bring their school uniform to change into after the lesson.
Due to health and safety reasons, it is highly recommended that students wear football boots for their Tee Ball lesson.
Any questions please do not hesitate to contact the PE Team - jaju@patana.ac.th.
Class Blogs and home learning
Here is the link to the Year 5 blogs. You will find an overview of your child's learning along with their home learning tasks and any important messages from your child's class teacher.
Please check your child's class blog weekly to stay informed about their learning.
Please encourage your child to complete their home learning.
Global Citizenship
Events In The World
You can keep up to date with current events around the world by watching Newsround, an age appropriate news show. Being aware of current events will help your child to make connections with a range of themes when reading in class, and it is an ideal opportunity for you to model discussing your opinions and using experiences to draw connections between events and people.

Birthdays
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.
- Individual treats can be brought into school with your child in the morning.
- Please agree a time with the teacher in advance.
- Children will be expected to eat any birthday treats outside of classrooms.
- Parents can join in the celebrations.
