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.
Eloise reflects on her experiences representing St Andrews International School at the annual Remembrance Day service hosted by the British Club in Bangkok. She expresses her deep gratitude for honouring the sacrifices of fallen soldiers and the pride she feels in continuing a family tradition while representing her school and community. Eloise emphasises the importance of this meaningful event in fostering remembrance and appreciation.
Students at St Andrews International School Bangkok have begun an exciting artificial intelligence project: integrating Nord Anglia’s “Misty the Robot” with conversational AI model, ChatGPT. Under the guidance of our Head of Robotics, Mr Rob Parker, they recently presented their results to Regional Managing Director, Mr Shaun Williams, as well as the Board of Directors at St Andrews, with the proposition of growing this project as a collaborative research venture across Nord Anglia schools.
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.
