Head to our Facebook page for the latest news on what’s been happening at GIS. www.facebook.com/gardeninternationalschool Generous GIS raises thousands Big-hearted students from Garden International School (GIS) joined in the fun at Jesters Fair. The school's IB students helped out by offering nail-painting activities and also by holding a raffle to win soft drinks. In total, students raised around 12,000 baht, which is a great achievement. International Literacy Day Generous GIS students have helped less-fortunate Pattaya children by donating their old books. To mark International Literacy Day, GIS Prefect John Caules organised several events. One was to encourage students to donate their old books, which were still in good condition, to give to charity. Dozens of books were handed in to the school library, and these will be passed on to the North Star Library in Pattaya. John also made a PowerPoint to show ever class the importance of literacy around the world.
John said he was pleased with how many books had been donated, and added: "It was great to see generous GIS students donating their books to help other children in Pattaya. Not everyone has access to the excellent library and facilities that we have at GIS, so it was great to be able to help others." The North Star Library is a non-profit making project that is run under the umbrella of the Father Ray Foundation. www.youtube.com/user/gardenrayongthailand Video 1: Roald Dahl Day Hundreds of chocolate-loving students hunted for special golden tickets to mark Roald Dahl Day at Garden International School (GIS). The students bought more than 1,000 Kit-kat bars in the hope that theirs would contain the magical golden ticket, just like in Dahl's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. GIS's Prefects, led by Languages' Prefect John Caules, organised the event, which aimed to raise awareness of children's author Roald Dahl, and also raise money for a good cause. By the end of the day, several golden tickets had been found and exchanged for prizes, and GIS raised 7,700 baht, which will be given to the North Star Library in Pattaya. North Star Library is part of the Father Ray Foundation. Pictured above are two of the lucky golden ticket winners! See our video on youtube.com.
