Chinese New Year Celebrations
We all enjoyed a myriad of fun and traditional Chinese activities to celebrate bringing in the Year of the Ox. Red envelopes filled with Good Luck Symbols, created by older students, were given to our Primary children in their Mandarin classes. It was lovely to see everyone joining in the spirit of the day, all dressed in the lucky red costumes. Thank you to Ms Shu-Yi, Ms Bonnie and K Card.

Non-Uniform Day to support Rescue P.A.W.SOn the Friday February 26th Lydia and Tilly, Y8 students, are leading a fundraising drive to support Rescue P.A.W.S (Providing Animal Welfare through Sterilisation). This is a local charity working to improve the welfare of soi dogs through sterilisation, vaccination and education. All students are invited to wear casual dress or dress up in a costume, and are asked to donate 50thb for Rescue PAWS. The charity also offers visits to schools, so we will follow this up too.

Cycling to SchoolIt is great to see so many students cycling to and from school. We do urge students to remember to wear their cycling helmets for safety.
