Last week our secondary school students burned some extra calories with the teachers and their classmates. Here are some pictures of the fun filled ‘Burn It Off’ week.
Here is a little throwback to our recent Year 7 residential trip to Samae San Island. The students thoroughly enjoyed the beach activities and had a fun time bonding with their classmates!
“This House Believes all teenagers should take a mandatory ‘parenting class’ before leaving school.”
Summary:
While some students thought that parenting classes were a positive initiative to promote education and awareness around parenting to enrich the lives of the future generation, the vast majority of Regent’s students believe parenting is a skill which should be learnt within families, cultures and traditions, not taught in an institution.

Each week students are challenged to engage in a whole-school debate about a variety of different topics. The Weekly Debate is an excellent forum for students to learn about and question new things; improve their written English and hone their skills of evaluation. The Weekly Debate takes place on padlet – a wonderful tool which shows a live feed of students’ opinions and ideas.
3M have been learning about Greek mythology in Literacy and CCS. The students really enjoyed the art project which involved planning a design for a Greek mask, making it out of clay and painting it. The project was a success and the masks look brilliant!
On the 28th and 29th May some of our boys went on a weekend trip to Suphanburi. This town, about 2 hours from Bangkok, is home to a few of our boarders. We got to spend some time with their families, and in addition we had VIP access and the opportunity to watch a Thai Premier League football match – Suphanburi vs Bangkok Glass.
A big thank you to Phoom and Moss` families for the great time we had on our weekend away.
Many of our students are currently in the middle of their IGCSE and IB exams, and busy revising hard. From all the staff, and their fellow students, we wish them the best of luck, and feel their pain with all that hard work and long hours studying!
Last weekend a large group of our boarding students, those that were not busy studying for exams, ran a service activity on our boarding campus. Local children from the surrounding streets were invited onto campus to make use of our great facilities. Our boarders ran football and painting sessions for them, and finished up supervising a swim session. It was great to see the children so happy and active, and equally great to see our boarders leading activities. Coming up this week in boarding we have a ‘Bow Fight’ company coming onto campus. This is a little bit like paint-ball, but with Velcro bows and arrows to make a Hunger Games style battlefield. They will be setting up their urban fortress on our football pitch and lots of boarders have signed up. This looks like great fun and no doubt there will be plenty of staff trying to get involved too (myself included!)
