Primary School House: Coding, sustainability, gardening and STARS A variety of House competitions have kept the Primary School busy in different ways.

A variety of House competitions have kept the St Andrews International School Bangkok Primary School busy in different ways.

A large number of students came to take part in Mr Nick’s coding competition last Friday. It was great to see them use their ICT skills in such a productive and successful way! Congratulations to Arm for being the first student to complete the coding challenge.

Ms Helen was quite overwhelmed by the fantastic response to her Eco-Beast competition, which was launched last week. The purpose of this competition is to design a beast logo for the new sustainability website.

This website has been designed with the intention of uniting the Bangkok international school community around issues of sustainability in an attempt to make our city cleaner, greener and more environmentally aware.  The competition is running in 16 other Bangkok schools and the official date to announce the overall school winner will be after half term.

Here are some of Ms Helen’s favourite designs so far:

Ms Helen liked one student's design so much that she was given the chance to harvest and take home an enormous bok choy that had grown in the vegetable garden on the roof of the R building!

Finally, don’t forget to take part in our  STARS House competition:
