U16 International Football Friendly Match

Regent’s U16 Football team hosted a friendly match against a touring Uzbekistan team who were here in Bangkok to showcase some of their players to the professional clubs in Thailand, as well as giving their team an opportunity to experience playing football against different nationalities. It was also a fantastic opportunity for some of our students to play against and watch a team of players who have an extremely high level of organisation and talent, and who have been playing together for a number of years. The visitors won the game comfortably beating Regent’s 12-2, however our students can be proud that they battled hard up until the final whistle and managing to score 2 goals against a very solid defense was a great achievement.

TISAC Senior Girls Football Festival

On Saturday 25th February the Senior Girls Football team took part in the TISAC Senior Girls Football Festival hosted by Bromsgrove International School. The team played well in all four of their games, they were fiercely competitive, worked extremely hard for each other and were very unlucky to narrowly lose a couple of matches to late wonder goals by opposing strikers. The girls are to be commended on their effort, participation, perseverance and also for representing the school in such a positive and sporting manner.

Thinking Hats Year 7 LTL

In Year 7 Learning to Learn, students have been learning about the six different ‘Thinking Hats’ that they will need to use in their studies to enhance meta-cognitive skills. Then the students design their own hats in groups. Each colour represents a cognitive skill, for example, yellow-represents positive and optimistic; neutral (white)-represents only looking at facts and figures; black-represents serious and sensible, cautious and careful; red-represents anger, emotions and negative stimuli; green-represents creative aspect and new ideas; blue-represents organised, cool and collected.

Open Mic Evening

The Open Mic was a great little event, aimed at showcasing the broad array of talent in the school. This first show was small; just four excellent acts; but future events are set to grow to encompass music, drama, comedy, speeches, magic, rap, dance, and many besides.

Thank you to our staff and students for your support.

Secondary TISAC Athletics Competition

On Thursday, we took away 32 students to represent Regent’s at the Secondary TISAC Athletics competition. The day was a real team effort with students pushing themselves to their limits. They behaved impeccably as they supported their team mates through a range of events including 1500m, triple jump and javelin. The team demonstrated determination and perseverance throughout the day, resulting in a medal count of 18, 7 of which being gold! Our gold streak included, double gold medals to Catalina (U13) and Lissa (Senior) for Long Jump and Triple Jump and our 4x 100m Senior boys team steaming to victory in a closely contended race.

These fantastic efforts resulted in the Senior team coming third overall. A brilliant achievement considering the caliber of the schools in attendance.

Thank you to Mr Harrison and Ms Allcroft who spent the whole day running the Long Jump event for the students and to all the students for showing true Regent’s spirit throughout the day.

Secondary Theme Day – Jan 2017

A healthy lifestyle involves making choices involving physical and mental well-being. In this theme day, students were given the opportunity to learn about different factors that affect our lives, such as smoking, puberty, contraception and sex etc.. Along with this, students were given the opportunity to meet with Childline volunteers to discuss ways to help our mental well-being. This was super effective in allowing students to reflect on themselves and how they can manage challenges they face.

Year 13’s spent the day with Mindfulness teacher Anna Croucher with a specific focus on stress management. These important skills can be brought through these difficult exam months.

To end the day our new energetic prefects ran a assembly. This included fitness games, action quiz, yoga and meditation. Our prefects reminded students of all of the different components that contribute to a healthy lifestyle and that the most important thing is to enjoy yourself.
