St. Andrews International School, Green Valley February 28, 2014 Years 7 – 9 Exceptional Learners Day BBC School News Report At St. Andrews we strive for academic excellence, providing an enriching and innovative curriculum where students can achieve their best. As an example of this, on Thursday February 26, students from SAIS Sukhumvit 107 and Green Valley collaborated to research, write and broadcast the news. The 21 students from years 7, 8 and 9 worked diligently and enthusiastically, to a tight time schedule, to produce news bulletins aimed at teens and young adults. They covered stories such as the Kepler discovery of planets and the ongoing tension in Bangkok, and created mini-features on topics such as selfies, computer games and strict parenting. Their finished news programs are coming soon…….watch this space….. 5
