Trips
As an integral part of the curriculum our students go on many educational trips throughout the year. Educational visits promote the all round development of the student.
Residential trips include water testing on the Magic Eye Barge, Erawan Water Falls and the Hydro Electric Dam in Kanchanaburi Province, Night Safari and trekking in Koh Yai National Park. Day trips include the zoo at Nong Nooch, and investigating ways to reduce friction and energy transfer at the ice skating rink. The younger students might, for example, visit a farm, the local market, the Dentist, the Sikh Temple, or Lotus Crystal. The YMCA Ban Chang is a popular venue.
Special Events
Our calendar includes many special days and evenings throughout the year.
All the sections of the school present staged productions where we try to involve as many students as possible. Students get to demonstrate their developing talents in English language, their interpersonal skills, and learning to work together for family and friends. Being part of a production is a wonderful and rewarding experience for our students, and boosts positive self esteem.
We have many sporting teams that compete at local, national and international level. On campus we house the annual sports days and the swimming galas
