“Thailand Iron Man” Mini Marathon 2014

Date: 8 November 2014

Location: Smiling Sun Ground, Lumphini Park

Main Goal: raise funds to support organisations for the underprivileged nationwide

This is my second time running marathon. I started to know how marathon was like, because the first time I run in Rama 9 Park, I still confuse and didn’t know what to do. This time I didn’t get really tired because it’s 5km marathon while last time it was 10km. There were trophies and cash award for the first 5 finishers, so many people come here for competition specially those who are professional runner. However, there were also people like my friends and me who come here just for exercise as well. I have a lot of fun and also get to see beautiful park because this is my first time been in Lumphini park.

“Under the Same Sky” 10km Marathon

Location: Rama 9 Part

Date: 12 October 2014

Main goal: Raise funds for The Education for Development Foundation

This is my first time joining marathon, and I am really excited. I never thought that running 10km would be so tired. To be honest I didn’t mange to run the whole time, because it was really tired. So I start walking instead. And eventually I came to the finish line. I thought I would be the last one, but I saw some people still didn’t finish yet. Although it was very tired, but it was also very fun as well. I get to see the beautiful nature and smell the fresh air in the morning which feel really good. It’s a very nice experience and I am looking forward to join the up-coming marathon.

TISAC Basketball Tournament (Action)

After many days of practice, the team and I were ready for this day, TISAC tournament. The game took place at Wells, which was good because we are more familiar with our basketball court. We have game almost the whole day which is very tired. However, none of us give up. No matter how tired we are, we still keep going and do our best. During our final match, one of our best player got injured and couldn’t continue to play. Everyone become nervous, but eventually we manage to get back to the game and continue our best. We came in 2nd place, which I think was not bad. Even though we didn’t get 1st place, but that doesn’t really matter because we already did our best and we will keep continue practice to be better. The important things that I had learned in here is the commitment, teamwork, and communication.

Basketball training (Action)

I have basketball training every tuesday and friday. In the practice, we learned all the aspect in basketball, such as lay-up, dribbling, breaking the defense, offence, etc. This is my first year joining the basketball team, and I am really enjoy playing it. There are many things that I still need to learn and practice more in order to become a better player. So far, I think doing good. I had learn many skill in basketball, however, I would still have to keep on practice and practice more. Another thing that I had learn in the basketball team is communication. It’s very important to talk with the team mates during the game and work as a team.

The International Clean-Up Day was organised by  the Mermaids Dive Center. The location was in Pattaya, Koh Suk. There were many international schools join and participated in this trip. The purpose of this trip is to clean up the beach by picking up the trashes, so that we could have a better and beautiful environment.
It was really surprise to see that there are loads of trashes on the beach. People might think that a small piece of trash won’t cause any big problem, but that’s wrong. A small piece of trash could lead to a serious problem in the future. If everyone keep throwing trashes and leaving them behind on the beach, eventually, our beach will be full of traces everywhere. These are not only destroy our environment, but it could be harmful to many animals as well. For example, some animals might mistake plastic bag as food, and so they eat it and die.
It was a great experience doing this service, we didn’t only just have fun, but also help to make our environment a better place And one of the important thing we learn from this trip is “a small piece of trash could lead to a big problem in the future”,
Learning outcomes:
