Wuttichot Bilingual School holds end of term concert An evening of music, drama and dance at the Grand Sole Hotel, Pattaya The audience of over four hundred parents and children enjoyed an evening of music, drama and dance, as well as being treated to a feast for the ears and eyes. The splendid meal served proved a feast for the stomach too!
The evening’s entertainment was opened by the school’s director, Ms Nongnuch and Mr Graham Meredith who is principal of Wuttichot’s sister school, the International School of Pattaya. An array of traditional Thai dancing was presented by the Kindergarten classes under the guiding hand of Valalak. Wuttichot did not forget its bilingual role, however, with Kindergarten 2 performing an American folk dance with help from Miss Mary, a teacher from Texas, based at the school.
Miss Mary also acted as compere for the show, ably assisted by Somsak who provided the Thai language commentary. The Primary classes also presented a program of Thai dance, coupled with some short plays based on Western fairy tales. Primary 1 performed the well known Little Red Riding Hood, rewritten for the night by class teachers Sudarat and Mr Max, whilst Primary 3 offered a play based on the nursery story “The Three Little Pigs”.
The children played their parts very well, performing both plays in English and class teachers Khun Raodnan and Mr Nick were very pleased with the result. Wuttichot’s music teacher, Mr Chris, provided the musical accompaniment to the show, as well as introducing his Primary 3 recorder ensemble. The children all looked lovely in their costumes, which had been especially prepared for the evening, none more so than the robots in Primary 1’s ‘The Robot Song’. As the concert drew to a close all the children took to the stage to sing a song of farewell, ending with a lovely solo sung by the school director Ms Nongnuch herself. A great evening’s entertainment was had by all and the Wuttichot children really showed that bilingual education can be a bringing together of the best of both East and West.
