Fun sleepover at St. Andrews

By Antoine De Cuyper (Year 7)

Key stage 3 of St. Andrews International School earned themselves a sleepover at the boarding house with excellent work and good behaviour

On the night of Thursday 23rd May to Friday 24th May, the students of Key Stage 3 of St. Andrews International School slept at the boarding house. This was a reward for excellent work and good behaviour throughout the year. It all started when the teachers of Key Stage 3 decided to create a reward system for the students. It was decided that they would be known as ‘Tokens’, and that if the class total was over 500 Tokens, the students would get a day out.

On Thursday, the students finished their school day and waited to go to the boarding house. They first went to the swimming pool to have a swim around and play a match of water polo. The score was a close 5-4, with the winning goal scored in the last few minutes.

Walking back to the boarding house in the sun was tough, but it was worth it, because of all the fun they had next.

Once they arrived at the boarding house, dinner was served and all the students (and teachers) ate hungrily. Then came all the fun!

Action in the pool

The students went up to their rooms to play games. There was a large choice of activities: cards, chess, watching TV, having a snack, and someone brought Twister, which was the chosen activity. Then, the students celebrated their classmate Jenna’s fourteenth birthday. It took a while to blow out the candles, but the cake was tasty!

Then it was movie time. ‘Bring It On’ was chosen as the movie, and the students watched it with popcorn in their hands, often bursting out laughing. The movie ended at approximately 9 o’clock, giving the students one hour of free time to play Twister and to keep going with the activities they were doing. At 10 ‘o’clock, everyone had to be in bed, but it didn’t mean that they couldn’t chat, which obviously everyone did.

The boarding house trip makes many of the students look forward to the trip to Chiang Mai, which will be based on education, and of course some fun!


Magical “Night at the Grammy Awards” for ISE upper classmates

Graduates say goodbye at Prom Night 2002

It was a magical night last week as this year’s graduating class from the International School Eastern Seaboard, along with next year’s graduates, said their goodbyes with one last dance at the Hard Rock Hotel.

ISE’s upper classmen took the floor and showed they could move to the modern beat.

It was a “star-studded” night at the Hard Rock Hotel’s Hall of Fame when students celebrated the ISE Prom 2002. The theme for this year’s prom was “A Night at the Grammy Awards”.

After a buffet dinner, students and faculty members got together to ‘get down’ on the dance floor. What started off quite slow eventually led to the boys rappin’ on the floor; not to be outdone the girls were called out on the floor where they, too, showed they could dance.

Anton and Bola were crowned this year’s ISE Prom King and Queen.

Lots of fun and lucky draws were had before the main event, the crowning of Anton and Bola as this year’s Prom King and Queen. Presenting the crown were last year’s King and Queen Chatchai and Daisy, who happily abdicated their thrones.

After the crowning ceremony and many pictures, Anton and Bola took the floor and danced the traditional King and Queen’s slow dance.

Before long, everyone joined the fun, dancing the night away and making the evening an event to remember for the rest of their lives.

ISE’s upper class women showed they could shake it, too!

Following the party, the hotel graciously invited everyone to the foam down by the Hard Rock Cafe.
