Regent’s Presents returns with two upcoming instalments
The Regent’s School Pattaya is very excited to announce
the future speakers of Regent’s Presents and welcome all of the school and
wider community to join us on the 4th February and 6th March for these
thought-provoking guest speaker presentations.
First up on the 4th February, a man with a true passion for adventure and
who has always embraced his curious mind and encourages others to follow
suit, Dan Kizner. All are able to join the school for ‘The Who, What, When,
Where, and Why of Learning - how School gets in the way, and why it doesn’t
have to’.
This instalment of Regent’s Presents will have us all thinking about how we
can transform our educational environments so that barriers to learning can
be minimised or even eliminated all together. We’ll discuss what it would
take to make powerful learning experiences possible for every student, every
day and ensure that school is not a difficult or tedious place. Dan’s
experience at Jump! Foundation (a charity that envisions a world where young
people fulfil their true potentials as individuals, community leaders and
global citizens) will have every one of us, whether student, parent or
staff, thinking about how important a learning environment can be.
The following month, on 6th March, the Regent’s School Pattaya will be
welcoming Shark Guardian; an organisation that strives to advance education
and conservation of shark species worldwide. Using a combination of images
and film, students, parents and staff members will be able to really learn
from these experienced shark divers and find out why sharks are so important
for our marine eco system and all life on Earth.
Both instalments are certainly not to be missed and the school looks forward
to welcoming its guests as well as the wider community.

Jesters Care for Kids 2012: Special Case
Here is Fahsai in her new wheelchair thanking
all of you with a big ‘wai’.
Lewis Underwood
At a recent visit to the Camillian Home in Lat Krabang for kids living with
HIV and disabilities, we visited Fahsai, who is the little girl that was
abandoned and has been afflicted with palsy since she was an infant. We
discovered that her wheelchair needed repairing and offered to fix it. When we
took it to the shop in Sriracha, they said it could be fixed, but it was going
to involve fabricating a part, which was going to take some time. So, in the
meantime, we decided to buy her a new one; after all once the ‘old’ one is
repaired, it can be used as back up or for another child.
