Elizabeth Jarman is an international consultant specialising in developing effective learning environments for children. She supports teachers in reviewing their learning spaces and rethinking the way they use their environment to support a child’s learning. Our association with Elizabeth began over a year ago when we invited her in as consultant. Together we looked at how we could improve the spaces around the campus to encourage language and communication and provide students with quiet spaces away from the bustle of a busy school.
Recently, she was back with us to review the changes we had made and also help us to add the finishing touches to the new, purpose built Reception and KS1 Building.
During her four-day visit she also held a meeting for parents and held workshops and seminars for teachers visiting from overseas and in Greater Bangkok. A very busy and inspiring week, the results of which we hope you see when you walk around our campus.
With the goal of providing meaningful help to the flood victims in the northern regions of Thailand, our entire community at St Andrews Bangkok came together to raise funds and donations for the affected families. In the span of a few short weeks, added to donations of food and clothing, we managed to raise an astounding total of 386,676.50 THB in donation funds. To all students, teachers, parents, and staff who participated in our efforts and contributed to this cause—thank you!
Last Friday, the STA Primary campus was transformed into a celebration of all things maths! The day was packed with engaging, hands-on activities across all year groups, making maths truly come alive for our students.
Senior student at St Andrews Bangkok, Pun (Year 13), devises an innovative solution for effective waste management. Recently, he completed an ambitious project: an AI-powered waste sorting system. After much research and testing, he got the system to work and put the model to use in one of our rooms at school!
Physics students from St Andrews Bangkok made quite an impression at the Beamline for Schools (BL4S) competition and won the Best Outreach Award for their brilliant work. BL4S is a prestigious global physics contest organised by CERN (the European Laboratory for Particle Physics in Geneva, Switzerland) and DESY (the German Electron Synchrotron in Hamburg, Germany), inviting High School students worldwide to propose detailed experiments to be conducted at a particle accelerator beamline. While our students did not win the main prize of conducting their experiment in Geneva, they still stood out and were recognised from an entry of over 400 teams.
