A note from the principal

This week I have been reflecting on the wider opportunities our students experience beyond the classroom. The highlight for many was our Year 3 students heading off to Pattaya for their first Residential. It is always a special milestone, with lots of learning taking place as students spend time away from home, growing in independence and confidence.

Our week began with an inspiring CPL day focused on Teaching and Learning at Patana. It is always a privilege when our staff come together to reflect on practice and continue strengthening the learning experiences we provide for our students.

A note from the principal

This week, the Primary School has very much enjoyed our annual Science Week. Having spent the last 3 years working on Atomic Theory, we are now turning our attentions to marine biology and conservation. It has been fantastic to welcome Piers Baillie from Global Reef and to understand more about their incredible work in Koh Tao. The students have learnt so much and cannot wait to get started on their projects, including coral restoration!

Have a great weekend. Don’t forget that on Monday and Tuesday, school will be closed.
