Students from Thailand Visit Stocky

Mrs McApline, Subject Leader of MFL & Global Awareness Leader, organised educational and cultural exchange trips with two secondary schools in Thailand.

The first cohort from Khon Kaen Wittayayon School, a very large secondary school located in Khon Kaen Province, Thailand visited Stocky from 2 October to 6 October.

The group consisted of 16 students and three teachers from their English Programme.

This week our second cohort visited us from Thailand and consisted of 37 students and six teachers.

Both groups were able to visit Stocky daily through a ‘school buddy system’, where the Thai students were paired with a Stocky student and their host family.

The students and teachers thoroughly enjoyed their week-long immersion, taking part in all classes, sports and activities. The Stocky ‘buddies’ took their roles very seriously and ensured their new Thai friends settled in quickly and integrated well into all aspects of school life.
