Still Looking for the Right School Place This September?
At St Andrews Bangkok, we offer a Swimming Programme that provides an all-inclusive pathway for children - at any swimming level, to learn and develop their aquatic skills. We have a very strong philosophy about swimming which complements the ethos of our school and suits the needs of every student.
The Marlins Swim Squad offers competitive training programmes for swimmers of all ages, starting at the very beginning with the 'Learn to Swim' programme to competing in national championship level competitions in the 'Elite Squad'.
Our highly experienced coaches, which include both Olympians and National level swimmers, work closely with students to support each swimmer's individual long-term athlete development (LTAD).
We focus on all aspects of the student’s development in a fun environment to ensure a healthy mind and body - with regular discussions about goal setting and the need for fueling the body for growth and repair.
Collaboratively, we plan for the future and support our swimmers in achieving long-term goals - this includes avoiding over-training which is a common problem in swimming and also focusing highly on technique and core strength during the early phases of development.
Our Swimming ECAs provide students with a range of training sessions, allowing them to plan a schedule that suits their own needs and allows them to join other activities away from the pool. Training and various squad training sessions are held after school and on Saturdays.
Throughout the year, students have the opportunity to participate in various competitions - both internal and external swim meets. Internally, our students participate in the following swimming events:
We host popular competitions of our own that are open to other international schools in Thailand and around the region:
Through these swim meets, students are able to have fun as well as build their swimming and social skills.
In addition to swimming, we love seeing our students gain experiences from a wide range of international water sports such as Synchronised Swimming - led by former National Team players.
We are proud to offer additional weekend and holiday training opportunities outside of the school Sports Programme. These sessions are run by experienced coaches and have consistently shown to positively impact athletes of all levels.
We finish the year with a Sports Celebration event, designed to celebrate the sporting achievements of all our community and highlight student commitment, effort and progress.
Students who have participated in our Sports Programme all receive a souvenir badge for each and every sport that they have contributed to during the school year. Individual and team awards are presented during an awards ceremony and then students get to enjoy fun activities throughout the event - a truly memorable experience for all involved.
If you want to play sports, there is a place for you at St Andrews Bangkok, with year-round opportunities to inclusively get involved in a safe and challenging environment. The best way to learn more about our Sports Programme and how we integrate it into our curriculum and community is to visit us.
