Last week our young adepts of physical sciences were asked to investigate the acceleration due to gravity.
The test can be executed in various ways in which our Year 12 students decided to measure how speed changes with:
A falling object
A ball rolling down a ramp
Timing oscillation (movement back and forth at a regular speed) of a pendulum.
This task was designed to help students to learn nuances of proper scientific investigation, develop their analytical skills, and most importantly they learn how to properly evaluate the viability of a test based on the method used to conduct it.
In all cases, results were fairly close to the expected value - within a reasonable margin of error - so, unfortunately, we won't be scheduling meetings with the Nobel Committee quite yet.
St Andrews International School Bangkok's International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme (IBCP) and BTEC students recently completed a week of work experience in various companies in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and as far as in Penang, Malaysia. This unique, exciting opportunity allowed the students to step out of their comfort zones and gain direct feedback from a professional environment in the real world.
St Andrews International School Bangkok has achieved the Silver Eco-Schools Award! At our Primary School Campus, the EcoBeasts are renowned for their food waste reduction projects and the Eco-Schools’ esteemed panel of judges were thoroughly impressed. Our Eco Committee received deserved recognition for its consistent efforts to promote environmental sustainability across the entire school community. We are inspired to continue making a positive change.
At St Andrews International School Bangkok, we always seek opportunities to inspire and engage our students with real global challenges. And when such an opportunity comes, our students love to dive in. One of the most exciting initiatives for our Year 9 students is the Artificial Reef Project. A fantastic blend of education, innovation, and environmental stewardship, this extraordinary project not only addresses coral-related issues in Thailand but also truly embodies all the components of STEAM education – Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics.
What an exciting time this is for the Aquatics Department at St Andrews International School Bangkok. During the summer, as we basked in the glow of remarkable news of our swimming coach and athlete qualifying for the 2024 Olympic Games, the result made it even better. The Olympics, an event that unites athletes from around the world in a celebration of sportsmanship and human spirit, has come particularly close to home for our community this year, inspiring students, staff, and parents alike.
