Final staging of Wizard of Oz receives rave review
The two-night final staging of the
Wizard of Oz by Rayong English Programme School during the 16th-17th of
September is over and there is no other word to describe it. It was
Fantastic. The GIS hall was packed and some people even came to the
second night performance to watch it again.
Let me start with the activity and
sound. It has had a constant vibrancy which pulsated the hall. The chorale
was singing to its utmost quality and gave out their adaptation of the songs
featured in the musical-comedy TV series Glee, which added to the scenes
with importance and excitement. The audience couldn’t stop singing along to
the familiar tunes:
On My Own, Jump, Lean On Me, You Can’t Always Get
What You Want, A House Is Not A Home, Keep Holding On,
True Colours and Don’t Stop Believing.
In the lighter moments, a sense of
comedy was never lost. The audience was laughing at the playful frolics and
creative dramatization of the scarecrow played by Sarah Thomson, the
cowardly lion
Garden
International School enjoys working hard at 12th Annual Jesters Fair
On Sunday, 12th of September, Garden
International School (G.I.S.) took part in this year’s Jesters Fair at Diana
Garden Resort, Pattaya. The school organized two stalls; a bottle stall and
a refreshing Thai dessert that goes by the name of “Nam Khang Sai.”
We hoped to help raise as much money as possible for the Care for Kids
organization with the help of the whole school community at G.I.S.
The IB students spent the entire day
manning the stalls, as well as promoting the “Guess the weight of a homemade
chocolate cake” (made by Nicolai Neufeld and Bhunyanutch Kanjananon) and
“Guess the number of sweets in the jar.” We announced the results to the
very happy winners at the end of the day.
We all worked hard in the scorching
heat; battling for the attention of customers to buy our bottles and the
dessert. By the end of the day we felt extremely tired, but also proud of
the effort we had put in to make 9,100 baht for Jester’s.
