by Kentaro UDAGAWA
Contact Email: kentarou@isb.ac.th

It is the season for new band students. Upcoming grade 6 students, are
planning to purchase instruments for band classes next year. In doing
so, some parents are looking for secondhand instruments to purchase.

If you have following band instruments (flute, oboe, bassoon,clarinet,
alto/tenor/baritone saxophone, trumpet, French horn, trombone,
euphonium/baritone, tuba and percussion kit) that are in good
condition and if you would like to sell them, please contact us at
<kentarou@isb.ac.th> and bring instruments to the school (rooms 107 or
119 in the Cultural Center) for us to evaluate and give an estimated
price. We will then send a list of available instruments to parents
who are interested in purchasing second hand instruments.

Please be advised that we are not able to guarantee that all the
instruments will be sold due to the condition or interested buyers.

If you have further questions, please feel free to write to kentarou@isb.ac.th.

Panther Paws Track & Field Survey

by Justin Wah, CAO
contact: justinw@isb.ac.th

Panther Paws is having another successful season this year.  This has sparked some conversation in to the possibility of having a more extensive CAO Track and Field program.

This program would be open to 3rd grade – 12 grade depending on interest.  We cannot predict a cost at this current moment for this activity.  However, it would be a substantial increase to the current Panther Paws Program.

We would like to begin this program in the new school year and therefore would like to gauge the interest for such an activity. Please complete the following survey, it will be a great help for us in determining if we would start this program.

This survey will take less then a minute (really!)

Please click here for survey.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Justin Wah

by Anthony Giles
anthonyg@isb.ac.th

Dear Parents,

After the success of last year’s ISB Summer School production, School House Rock, Jr., this year we will be offering another Musical Theatre Camp featuring the Broadway hit musical, Guys and Dolls, Jr..  The course is open to all grade 4 through grade 8 students and runs for two weeks (or one*), from June 10 through June 21.  Please read below for more details.  Here is a sample of one of the songs from the show, “Sit Down You’re Rockin’ the Boat.”

*Students may opt to participate for the first week only at a reduced rate.

MUSICAL THEATRE CAMP (Grades 4-8)

This course is open to all grade 4 through grade 8 students with an interest in musical theatre. There are no prerequisites and everyone is welcome. If you are a shy student, an intermediate-advanced EAL student or an experienced music or drama student, there will be a place for you on our team.

The daily workshops will focus on singing, acting, and movement culminating in a public performance to be held the final day of the course, Friday, June 21. The class will emphasize self-confidence building through the Performing Arts. By creating a safe atmosphere where students feel comfortable, students will  challenge themselves to work on their:

  • English Language Skills
  • Voice Projection
  • Non-verbal Communication
  • Presentation Skills

In addition, students will also be empowered to develop:

  • A better knowledge of good teamwork.
  • A more creative approach to learning.
  • A greater understanding of the feelings of others.
  • A greater awareness of the Musical Theatre art form.

All students will enjoy a daily 30 minute recreational activity focused on personal interaction, friendship building, problem-solving and healthy fun. Students needing to develop both Math & English proficiency may request a special split program including components of both subjects. (Inclusion in either Math or English class is contingent upon enrollment).

 Session 1: 
June 10 – June 21
(2 weeks*)*

Summer school courses are specially designed to build on students’ previous learning and prepare them for greater success in the upcoming year in Grades 4-8.

*Students may sign up for the first week only.

Note – All courses include a daily 30 – minute recreational activity time in which the emphasis will be on interaction, team-building and fun.
