Our Year 1 students brought the enchanting world of the African jungle to life with their spectacular mini-musical, "Welcome to the Jungle." The musical was a heartwarming celebration of friendship, bravery, and the importance of keeping promises. The young performers delighted the audience with their charming portrayal of jungle characters and left everyone with smiles and applause. The story follows Panya, a tiny mouse who finds herself in the clutches of Maliki, a fearsome lion. Using her wit and charm, Panya manages to escape, only to return later to rescue Maliki when he is ensnared in a hunter's net. This touching tale was narrated by a group of storytellers who guided the audience through the jungle adventure. Throughout the performance, the students sang five simple yet captivating songs that beautifully complemented the story. These songs were: Welcome to the Jungle - An energetic opening that introduced the vibrant world and characters of the jungle, setting the stage for the adventure. Mane Man - A lively song highlighting Maliki, the lion, showcasing his pride and strength as the jungle's ruler. Danger - A suspenseful tune that captured the tension and challenges faced by the jungle inhabitants. Making a Friend - A touching song about the growing bond between Panya the mouse and Maliki, emphasizing kindness and friendship. Celebrate - A joyful finale celebrating the rescue and the new friendships formed, bringing the story to a triumphant close. The concert highlighted the students' talent and hard work, supported by the creativity of the staff and the whole school community. Parents, teachers, and students enjoyed the colorful costumes, lively choreography, and engaging storytelling. "Welcome to the Jungle" was a huge success, with the Year 1 students showing great confidence and enthusiasm, making it a memorable day for everyone.

Our Soi 20 campus was transformed into a vibrant underwater wonderland for our much-anticipated Nursery Spring concert. The theme, "Under the Sea," brought a wave of excitement as s our young learners displayed their talents through songs, dances, and delightful musical performances. This event perfectly aligned with the principles of the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), supporting various developmental outcomes for the children. The students, dressed as fish, turtles, jellyfish, and even sharks, brought the ocean to life on stage. Their bright costumes, complete with glittering scales and flowing tails, were a sight to behold. Our young learners twirled and swayed, embodying the playful spirit of the ocean. Their enthusiasm was infectious, drawing smiles and applause from proud parents and teachers alike. The stage decorations added to the immersive experience, featuring sea animals, coral reefs, seaweed, and bubbles, all meticulously crafted by our talented staff. These elements created an enchanting backdrop that perfectly complemented the children's performances. The concert concluded with heartwarming group songs, "Slippery Fish," "Sea Animal Dance," and "Mysteries Under the Sea," where all the students came together, singing their hearts out and waving goodbye to the audience. It was a fitting end to a magical day, leaving everyone with cherished memories. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the parents, teachers, and TAs who helped make this event a success. Your support and effort have made our "Under the Sea" concert an unforgettable experience for our little stars. We look forward to more such joyous celebrations in the future!

On Saturday, March 9th, 2024, AISB hosted our 4th Chess Without Borders Tournament. Seventy-three competitors ranging in age from 5 years up to about 16 years tested their chess skills against enthusiasts from other schools. Of the 73 competitors, 22 were from AISB, and quite a few AISB students finished on the podium, receiving medals or trophies. In fact, two of our students, Ayaan and Ko, won their respective divisions. AISB also added to our chess trophy collection by winning not one but two trophies for the school: Most Competitors and Most Points Scored (based on our top three performers). All the children were clearly enjoying themselves, even though it was a long 8-hour day on a Saturday. Many people from both campuses contributed their time to this event—Mr. Brenton, Miss Arvie (the AISB Chess coordinator), the admin teams of Soi 20 and Soi 31, and numerous others. I am sure the parents and children of AISB were very appreciative of the efforts of all those involved. I am sure many of the participants are looking forward to Chess without Borders 5. See you then.

Learning to swim with confidence at an early age helps to instill meaningful and continuing values in children such as determination, courage and motivation.This important lifelong skill helps each child to increase their self-confidence, knowledge around daily safety practices and physical dexterity. It's also a great way for the children to cool down in the hot Thailand weather, whilst having the maximum amount of fun, in a safe and caring environment. They are able to increase their lung capacity by learning how to hold their breath under water and have the opportunity to dive and swim like sharks and mermaids to retrieve objects, whilst strengthening their flexibility, coordination and muscle strength. These are meaningful skills and personal traits that are useful both in and out of the water and our Kindergarten group are prime, shining examples of the many benefits that swimming at an early age offers.

For the past month, the Y3 Pademelons have been having a weekly creation contest, where the winner gets to be the Challenge Master and choose the next week's challenge. Each week, the students have the option to create something for the challenge. On Friday the students vote for their top three choices as well as trying to guess who created each item. Here are some creations of our student's weekly challenge:

The Year 9 and 10 Art and Design students recently travelled to the Bangkok Art & Culture Centre to see the main exhibition, ‘The 9th White Elephant Art Award Exhibition – The Land of the Smiles’. The purpose of this visit was for students to broaden their understanding on how artists can interpret the same theme but in different ways. They saw how various techniques, mediums and processes are used to make the artworks on display, took photographs to document their inspirations and also drew from observation. It was a great opportunity for our art students to gain inspiration and insight when completing their own IGCSE projects. Here is a reflection report written by Naraya, a Y-9 student. My experience at BACC helped me to understand and learn the different ways that an idea can be adapted into a piece of art. After the visit, I felt inspired to develop my art skills so that one day I can hopefully create art like the ones in this gallery. I chose this piece of art as my favourite because it was very unique and fit with my theme of 'Natural Forms'. It looked like the artist painted a landscape with different types of strokes that made the painting feel almost ethereal which is why I felt it suited the theme 'Natural Forms' well. The students were asked to make observational drawings of the artworks and work into them with other drawing materials over the weekend.

Our Year 7 students have been learning about expository, or informational, texts. After exploring the features of an expository text about the dangers sea turtles face during nesting season, students were asked to create an informational sign. The final posters were extremely creative and showcased a firm understanding of the topic!
