Two major projects will significantly enhance evening and weekend activities for the boarders at Regents International School Pattaya.

The launch of the brand new Global Campus, which is only available at Regents and the 41 other Nord Anglia Education schools around the world.

Could this be the Regents first gymnastic champion? He already is. He may look little, but 5 year old Ian from Year 1 certainly has Big Dreams.

Just when we thought it might be nice to have a conference of some type for local Primary Schools, along comes Scotch Oakburn College with an invitation to visit their beautiful campuses in Tasmania for a Young Round Square Conference.

All the knowledge that I learnt from the trip and the things I did during the trip will help me in the future. I am going share all of my experiences from this trip with my family, friends and the whole assembly at my school.

Regents has just launched a cutting-edge learning programme for children aged 7 to 11 who are new to English. Known as ‘Intensive +’, the programme is unique to Regents. It is based on up-to-date research which recognises that, whilst many mainstream subjects are a challenge for children who are new to English, it is essential that they participate in ‘active learning’ scenarios with their peers in Music, Singing, Sport and ICT.

One of the most exciting outcomes from The Juilliard Continuing Professional Development was that we got to meet our Juilliard Curriculum Specialist, Kathryn Anderson, who is linked to our school and will be working alongside the Regents Music Staff to introduce and embed the curriculum. Kathryn will be visiting us 3 times this year and is very excited about her first trip to Regents at the end of October.

What a great start to the Year we’ve had. I knew this School was special when I made a preliminary visit in May, but the students here have a passion and bravery like nothing I’ve ever witnessed before.

An opportunity like this takes you out of your comfort zone. Living in a new country and working in an international school, throws new challenges at you daily. It keeps you on your toes and ensures that you are ready for anything!

Twenty five eager and excited students arrived on Monday afterschool to start their first session. We started in tutorial mode where students had to work through different missions and scenarios learning the controls of Minecraft as they went. Often the students, who are more experienced in using Minecraft, were helping Mr Parsons or myself as we got lost or stuck.
