Elevating communication for your child’s learning Journey - Years 7, 8 & 9 Luke Jones, Secondary Assistant Principal Curriculum and Assessment

W

e are profoundly grateful to the parents who participated in the recent set of Key Stage 3 workshops for Secondary School. These sessions delved into the adaptations we’re introducing to the student reports for Years 7, 8, and 9. Furthermore, we discussed the update we will be making to our assessment system, aiming to demystify the learning journey across these pivotal years.

THE BEDROCK REMAINS To ease any concerns upfront, the successful curriculum that has consistently prepared our students for the (I)GCSE and IBDP remains intact. Our assessment techniques, tailored meticulously for each subject and Year group, also stand their ground.

SO, WHAT’S CHANGING? We aim to move to a live data system for students and parents in the next two years - this will allow parents to access the report data at any time rather than waiting for termly reports to be published.

OUR OVERARCHING GOAL? Enhance the way we communicate your child’s progress. A wealth of educational research supports the idea that honing in on the entire learning journey — focusing on the next steps for improvement — is more impactful than traditional grading systems. As was resonantly agreed upon during our workshops, pinpointing ‘what’s next’ is the linchpin for any student’s success across any subject.

“Grades and rankings do not in themselves give students one iota of information of how to improve. When teachers pair grades with comments, common sense would tell us that this is a richer form of feedback. But our work in schools has shown us that most students focus entirely on the grade and fail to read or process teacher comments” Dylan Wiliam

HOW DO PROGRESS MAPS WORK? Think of these maps as a ladder guiding students through their academic progression - with the top of the ladder being the most challenging steps. The progress maps will enable teachers to pinpoint stages where students initiate, advance and master specific aspects of their subjects.

Importantly, they can be used during Parents Conference Evenings and Parent meetings, offering you, as a parent, deeper insights into your child’s progress.

Fostering Student Agency, Belonging and Creativity: The Vital Role of the Student Council Miranda Cawley, Leader of Learning and Welfare Year 5

I

n the ever-evolving landscape of education, nurturing student agency, fostering a profound sense of belonging and encouraging student creativity are essential for a thriving school community. The Student Council, a dynamic force within our school, plays a pivotal role in empowering student agency while nurturing a sense of belonging and fostering creative expression. By selecting representatives who truly embody the diversity of our student body, we guarantee that each student has a platform for expressing their ideas, concerns, aspirations and nurturing their creativity.

Student Council members serve as role models, demonstrating to their peers the transformative potential of active participation and creative thinking. By actively engaging in decision-making that impacts the school’s culture, environment and activities, they send a clear message that every student’s voice is valued and integral to the collective success at Bangkok Patana.

The Student Council represents the embodiment of democratic principles within our school, showing students that they are not just passive learners; they are active contributors to the school’s progress and creative development.

High Notes at Choral Festival Laura MacRitchie, Choir Director

W

e were very excited to be working with Carrie Tennant as part of BICF (Bangkok International Choir Festival) 2023. The programme this year was very diverse and introduced our singers to many cultures, traditions and languages. BICF is an important date on our Music calendar as it provides an opportunity to collaborate with many schools in South-East Asia through song. To sing as part of a mass choir is a memorable experience for our students. It is such a highlight that students often refer to it when reflecting on their choral experience at Bangkok Patana.

The festival culminated with a Gala concert on Saturday at ISB. This was a wonderful celebration of our students and their choral journeys.

STUDENT REFLECTIONS “On Tuesday 26th September, students of our Senior Choir welcomed Carrie Tennant, a choral conductor from Canada. This was in preparation for the upcoming Bangkok International Choir Festival (BICF), which took place last Saturday. The Senior Choir met Carrie Tennant for the first time and had their final rehearsal together as a group, learning new techniques from the conductor and refining their songs.” Arissara (Sara) Hutchinson, Year 10 “The Choral Festival, was such an amazing experience for me. It widened my horizons to so many different styles of choral singing and gave me the opportunity to create beautiful music with all types of musicians and connect with like - minded people. I found the conductor inspiring as she not only shared her priceless experience with us, but created such a lovely atmosphere for the entirety of the festival. Thank you to everyone involved for making this possible.” Lucy Smith, Year 10 “Being a part of the Choral Festival is such an amazing and interesting thing to experience as a singer as it shows you the multiple genres and techniques used in music. I’ve been a part of the Choral Festival a few times and I always leave with something new. This time we had Carrie Tennant as our guest conductor, and I can confidently say that she is one of the most amazing and inspirational people I have ever met. I always meet such talented and ambitious people who not only inspire me to thrive and be more confident but also make the ambiance of the theatre and school so comfortable and safe. My favourite song this year was Still, because of its softness and simplicity. It is such an honour to attend these festivals, so thank you for everyone who put in the effort and love to create such awesome memories.”

Kate Schestak, Year 10

Tigers’ Volleyball update Ana Bolakoso, Year 9

T

his week our Volleyball Tiger teams competed in some friendly matches with ICS. The Varsity Girls’ Volleyball team were hit hard by sickness this week, but with eight remaining players they were still excited to make the trip over to ICS. ICS have a strong team with plenty of tall hitters and a very reliable setter. Our Girls’ Varsity team were greeted by a large and friendly but parochial crowd. The first set was a nail biter with the Tigers demonstrating great patience and some excellent serving. Some lovely sets from Helen resulted in some dominant hitting from April. The final score was 25-21.

They moved on to the 2nd set where our first serve percentage was excellent. The team battled point for point eventually going down fighting 25-23. ICS graciously then played a friendly set with us to get additional match play. Shout out to the Match MVP - Ing Ing. She was selected due to her steady and slow receiving and her hugely improved serving, not to mention her awesome sideline support when not on court. Also a special mention to Coach Jang who celebrated her birthday at the match. Despite not quite delivering a birthday win but we sure enjoyed having cupcakes together!

The Varsity Boys welcomed ICS to Court 1 on Wednesday and delivered a masterful performance.

With a number of key players out with sickness, the younger players showed their potential alongside the elastic middle hitting of Year 13 Alan. Two dominant matchplay sets finished 25:19, 25:22. The team is really starting to gel and find a rhythm, with SEASAC appearing on the horizon.

The Junior Varsity Girls also welcomed ICS, who came well drilled and ready to play. Across three sets, the team didn’t quite match their usual high standards early on but found their range in the third to win 25:10.

Unforced errors are a key focus for the team and some more serving practice in the upcoming weeks will make all the difference! Great performance by Aime, particularly on serve, made the difference in the third set.

Congratulations to all our teams and Tiger teammates for representing our school with pride.

Wai Kru in Secondary School

Dr Rattana Chanruam, Secondary Thai Curriculum Leader Each year, Bangkok Patana has a ‘Wai Kru’ day when Year 7 students pay respect and express gratitude to their teachers. Wai Kru is usually held at the beginning of the new academic year and this year it was held on Friday, 29th September.

‘Wai’ means to bow in Thai, and it is used in greeting while saying a prayer. The ‘Wai Kru’ ceremony is a great way to start the academic year and is an important part of the traditional Thai educational system. They thank their teachers for the knowledge they have imparted and allow the teachers to bless them at in beginning the academic year.

We wish Year 7 good luck in Secondary School and hope they gain new knowledge to develop their potential throughout the year. Have a great academic year ahead!

#257: What Parents Need to Know About Among US Created in 2018 by a small indie studio that (at the time) had only four employees, Among Us has become one of the gaming world’s biggest breakout hits of recent years. In 2020, for example, it was the world’s most-downloaded mobile game. Its simplicity helped Among Us to resonate with younger players in particular: the game’s second largest audience slice is the 13–18 age bracket.

While the 7+ age rating, emphasis on teamwork and cartoonish, colourful graphics all suit a young fanbase, the game does carry more serious risks than betrayal by a team-mate or an untimely on-screen demise – with in-game purchases and possible contact from strangers. This guide explains the game and gives a list of potential hazards that trusted adults should be aware of.

Have a great weekend!

Wildlife Spotting with Coke Local Hotspots for Wildlife Alexander Coke Smith V, Secondary Environmental Sciences Leader

October already! Time to get out and see the spectacle of nature that happens every year at this time in and around our mega-city, Bangkok.

come in, they always seem to stop here. Ruddy Kingfishers, Ferry Pittas and many others are some of the more notable species that stop here annually.

Today’s column will center on the local hotspots in our area that are starting to show signs of the fall migration already. From a couple weeks ago all the way through the end of Term 1, nature enthusiasts will be able to step outside our air-conditioned world and find some of the spectacular species of birds that are making their way south for the winter months.

Now there are many places in Thailand that are excellent for viewing this migration, but I will focus first on the more local haunts for our passersby. These locations have been highlighted before in my columns but I feel it is time for a refresher and to give some our new Bangkok Patana School members some hints on where to go.

Rama VI Park: Perhaps the closest to our campus is this expansive and impressive botanical garden. Green spaces such as this park and other provide welcome stop-overs for our migrating birds. It’s easy to see many of the more common birds in the mature trees of the park. Birder Tip: Pay attention to the people with massive lenses and expensive camera gear – they know where they birds are!

Lumpini Park: This is surely one of Bangkok’s largest and most famous parks. Now while this green space has many migratory birds stopping by just like the others in this article, what I like the most is the huge population of Southeast Asian Water Monitor Lizards and Finlayson’s Variable Squirrels. The park manages its wildlife quite impressively and is a great place to see our own “Komodo Dragons” up close!

Bangkok Patana School Gardens: Let’s not forget our home base! As you surely know, our school is blessed with one of the most impressive tropical gardens anywhere in Bangkok. And our own greenspace is rife with Queen Sirikit & Rod Fai wildlife, ranging from many migratory birds as well as Parks: These are two adjacent Variable Squirrels and Northern Treeshrews and loads of green spaces that are great for those more centrally lo- reptiles and amphibians! Our gardens here are perfect cated in our area. When the migratory rock-star species for a morning of birdwatching.
