At the weekend a group of our Secondary violinists travelled to Bangkok Patana School to take part in their annual String Orchestra Festival. 160 students from Bromsgrove, Patana, TCIS, ISB, St Andrews, Berkeley, and ICS worked incredibly hard, having over 6 hours of rehearsal time on Friday and Saturday, before performing a concert to a packed theatre on Saturday afternoon. Congratulations to Lucy, Minseo, Victoria, Putter, Bei Bei and Melissa from Bromsgrove for their fantastic musical achievement!

Halloween celebrations give students and teachers an opportunity to dress-up and enjoy the festival. At early years, students have been ‘trick or treating’ around campus and collecting candies and sweets around school to take home and share with their families. Our Windsor park campus, has seen Primary & Secondary students and staff participating in lots of Halloween activities, including a Halloween fashion show, having spooky learning in the classrooms and our Primary children took home a ‘trick or treat’ goody bag – yum! Happy Halloween everyone!

Congratulations to Angie (Year 7) and Angel (Year 6) who received medals from competing in the 2018/2019 Asian Junior Figure Skating Challenge. Well done to both students for their hard work and achievements!

Primary and Early Years were lucky enough to have some VERY exciting visitors from the UK this week. Actors from a UK-based theatre group were in school to work with some of our students, and also share a performance of ‘The Gentlest Giant’ with us too. The production shares a message of our collective responsibility to look after the planet that we live on. The students loved watching the production and there was lots of audience participation. We hope to see them again when they next visit Bangkok!

Another victory achieved by the Bromsgrove senior boys basketball team, this time away at Charter International School. The boys finished the match with an impressive scoreline of 59-34.  The Most Valuable Player was Karn scoring the highest amount of points on the day with 24. He had stiff competition for this award with MJ displaying a dominating presence throughout, especially with rebounds, points and assists. Team coach Mr Dutson would like to deliver this message: well done to the boys and keep up with the hard work. Tim, the team captain said,  “It was an amazing match! We were able to implement tactics and set plays that we had practised during our training in school. Furthermore the communication has significantly improved since our first match and I hope the team will keep on working hard.”  Well done Bromsgrove!

A determined effort from the Bromsgrove U15 Basketball team against St Andrews 107. The boys fought hard against a strong opposition and made a valiant attempt to win the match. A huge effort from all involved and a big contribution from team captain Alex scoring 21 points. Team coach Mr Dutson was proud of their hard work and desire to succeed. A big shout out to Pongthep and Jackson who made their first competitive appearance in the maroon colours of The Bromsgrove Bears.

In Y4 Kingfishers our English topic is Adventure Stories. We have focused on how to write an imaginative setting. This week, we thought about how to create an exciting and engaging character description. We have shared some good examples and worked out what makes them effective. We used our imaginations and ideas from characters we know to write our description. We used some carefully chosen adjectives and similes. Some of us tried to show our reader what a character is like rather than just telling them. We are looking forward to writing our adventures in the coming weeks!
