Learning Beyond the Classroom
|
Success in future studies, employment, and indeed life itself, flows for those who have a balanced approach to work and broader social commitments and who have established their capacity to work effectively with others. Acquisition of leadership and teamwork skills, learning how to cope with both winning and losing, building confidence and perseverance, responding to challenges and learning to plan ahead, are but a few of the benefits of participation in co-curricular activities.
Flowing from St. Mark's special focus on pastoral care and individual attention, each student's needs and preferences are accommodated within the co-curricular selections, offering both breadth of experience and depth of specialisation.

World Vision Famine Project
Our High School students collaborated with มูลนิธิศุภนิมิตแห่งประเทศไทย World Vision Foundation of Thailand in Famine Project and had an amazing activity called "Turn Notebooks into Meals". The students made DIY notebooks for the funding of the organisation's nutrition program. It was a successful event and we were able to raise a significant amount to help World Vision Thailand in this project.

What others are saying
St. Mark’s is a great school with many classes to learn from like Chinese which makes us a lot smarter. I also like that there are classes like Technology, Arts, and Anklong because they teach very interesting things. I like that we are able to join different competitions and get medals and certificates for trying and winning and it also teaches us to be brave and try to get out of our comfort zones and try something new.
Ireland (Primary)
I really like this school because the education here is very good. The teachers are very nice, knowledgeable and funny. They taught me many things. My friends and classmates are nice too. But, the best thing is that the school has everything the kids need.
Korea (Primary)
St. Mark’s not only focuses on teaching but organises social activities such as camps, field trips, sports day, showcase, after-school activities. Participation in these activities has made me become more confident. Teachers here are experts in their fields and are entertaining, making learning very enjoyable. They are very approachable and often would help us whenever we have a need. The school guides me to achieve my academic goals and become a better person.
China (Secondary)
St. Mark's class size was one of the reasons I like this school. I was able to connect well with my classmates and teachers, who have inspired me to love learning, especially in Maths and Chemistry. St. Mark's has given me the opportunity to interact with students from different countries, which has helped to improve my English. St. Mark's provides an excellent education for both native and non-native English speakers.
