Gymnasts, musicians and singers kicked off this year’s Busking Week at Primary School. Catch a morning concert and visit with our performers at break time all week.
The week got off to a banging start with a mini concert in the Year 6 quad from STA Bang! Our trusty Year 6 House Captains collected some donations from the audience, so thank you to all those who donated to our House Charity, The Central Thailand Mission.
Come and catch the morning concerts each day this week at 7:25 a.m. in the Y6 Quad:
The performers were out in force at break time today as well. We had some gymnasts, musicians and singers. We are looking forward to a lot more talent emerging throughout the week!
Please remember so send your child in with some small change so they can donate to the buskers throughout the week.

At St Andrews Bangkok, we believe that every student deserves to feel seen, valued, and included both inside and outside the classroom. That’s why we are incredibly proud to introduce the Friendship Benches project, an initiative designed to foster connection, kindness, and community spirit across the school.
From 25th May to 27th May, St Andrews International School Bangkok proudly hosted the 2025 Nord Anglia SEA STEAM Festival. Students from across Southeast Asia came together for three inspiring days of creativity, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving. This year’s big question: “How can we reduce or repurpose school waste to create a lasting impact in our communities and environment?”
From cultural celebrations and hands-on STEAM challenges to expert talks and a final showcase of student-led projects, the festival was a true celebration of innovation and sustainability.
NAE Global Campus received a staggering 3,300 entries from 66 Nord Anglia schools all around the world, and one student from STA shone bright, winning Best in Show in the Art Music category: a big congratulations to Freya in Year 8 for her truly outstanding achievement and stellar performance!
