Annual Music Recital

Parents and visitors enjoyed watching over 30 children perform as part of our annual Music Recital. The children from both Primary and Early Years played various musical pieces on the piano, violin and flute. It was a wonderful experience for all involved. Many thanks to Mrs Lyng for organising the event and to the children for all their hard work and practice.

Primary TISAC Quiz

On Thursday 24th March, this year’s TISAC Quiz team went to St Andrew’s School in Sathorn to compete against seven other teams in the annual quiz. After winning their place on the team following the Quiz Off, the team members were Sangdad from Year 3, Anika from Year 4, Santa from Year 5 and veteran quiz member and Team Captain, Zak from Year 6.

This year’s format was a little different. In previous years the children had to be fast at putting their hands up but this time each team was provided with an iPad and the quiz was online using the excellent website, Kahoot. Points were awarded for all correct answers and the faster the questions were answered, the more points were scored. There were seven rounds in total: Sport, World Flags, General Knowledge, Screen Test, Logos, Maths and Celebrity Pictures.

Our team got off to a great start and climbed our way up to second place, where we stayed for a long time. The top three teams were answering everything correctly until we got one question wrong and dropped into third place. Again we maintained this position right up to question 91 (of 119) and then we made a couple of errors and ended up in sixth place. Unfortunately we just didn’t have time to climb our way back up the leader board and this was our final position. Nobody could catch St Andrew’s Sathorn and they retained the top position for almost the entire quiz, so well deserved winners.

The children had a fantastic time and made a great team. They worked very well together and tried their absolute best. They were exceptionally well behaved and were even quizzing each other on the journey to the quiz. Maybe next year we will win the trophy!

The Primary Easter Disco, put on by the Primary Student Council, was a huge success. All students, parents and staff had a great time. The Student Council was able to raise 18,230 Baht from the event, which goes toward helping our community partner, Good Shepherd Sisters. Hopefully we’ll have another disco in Term 3!

 

Welcome letter from Head of Primary

Dear Parent,

a-Rachel_0002webAs we come to the end of our second term I constantly being reminded of what an excellent school The Regent’s is.

We have celebrated sporting success, winning the Tournament of Mind competition in Thailand, the FOBISIA maths team visiting China and the wonderful Year 5 and 6 performance of Shakespeare Rocks.

With all these events and activities we sometimes forget that the children’s academic studies are continuing and I have been particularly impressed with the progress the children are making which has been documented in their end of term reports.


This week Ms Caro Drumm, the new Head of Primary visited the school and we had a wonderful time showing her round her new school. Many parents joined us for a coffee afternoon to be formally introduced to her.

Finally I would like to wish everyone a joyful and peaceful Songkran holiday and I look forward to welcoming you all back on April the 18th.

With best wishes,


Rachel

Primary FOBISIA Maths Results

We now have the results for the FOBISIA Maths competition that Sun, Jojo, Data and Tara in Year 6 attended earlier this month.


The Regent’s team came in 15th place out of 29 schools from across South East Asia.
We are very proud of the hard work our students put in to preparing for the competition and for their efforts in the competition itself. It is a very challenging competition with the best mathematicians from each school competing. Our team worked incredibly well together and their excellent team work as well as their outstanding Maths abilities led to a successful result. Mr. Jarrett, our team coach, is already looking to our talented mathematicians in Years 5 and 4 to make a team to compete next year.
Well done team Regent’s!

Primary Maths Fobisia Tournament 2016

The British School, Guangzhou hosted the FOBISIA Primary Maths Challenge from 11 – 13 March 2016.

Thirty schools brought teams of 4 students and competed against each other in a series of challenges. There were logic problems, puzzles, races and tests.

Data, Jojo, Sun and Tara (all in Year 6) represented our school and did a fantastic job. They missed out on the top prizes but had a brilliant time and enjoyed themselves.

We can’t wait for next year!

Year 4 Thai Trip to Rattanakhosin

Year 4 went on a trip to this famous museum. We saw a movie about the history of Thailand (Siam). Then next we heard the story about people from old Thailand and the old buildings.

Next we learned about how Thai people traditionally made food and farmed rice. We looked at how people used to dress long ago in traditional clothes.

After a snack, we went to the games which Thai children played in the past. That was a lot of fun.

Finally we learned about traditional puppet shows and tried to do it ourselves.

We all had a great day out with the Thai department teacher.
