CMIS features photos and videos in our CMIS Gallery and on our CMIS Social Media Platforms. Below are some recent highlights.
"Rod Nam Dum Hua” Ceremony was held on Thursday, April 28, 2022. The ceremony was presented by the fifth graders to pay respect to our elders. Rod Nam Dum Hua is an important tradition in the Songkran Festival and means a water-pouring ceremony to ask forgiveness and blessings from a respected elder.
- Thai Department4B visited Kru Dang to learn about Songkran, an important Thai festival. On the final day of Songkran, people take part in an activity called Rot Nam Dam Hua. Students found out what ingredients go into the special water that is used in this activity before having some photos taken with traditional umbrellas and flags.
- Ms. NikitaCongratulations to our U12 Boys Futsal team on competing in the CMAC tournament this year. They battled hard and long throughout the hot days tournament. All the players should be proud of their individual and team achievements.
- Coach PaulCongratulations to our numerous CMIS badminton athletes (U12, U14, U16. & U20) after competing in our annual CMAC tournament last Saturday. Several participants finished on the podium ranging from 1st-3rd with many surprising themselves throughout the tournament. Coaches, parents and school alike are very proud of them and excited for next year!
- Coach PaulGrade 2 is investigating insects and plants. Today we ventured outside to plant brassica seeds and talked about what the plant needs to grow. Students will take care of their plant and make observations over the coming weeks on how their plant grows.
- Ms. ShannonThe Grade 4 Thai Novice class learned about the classic Thai dessert known as khao nieow ma muang (Mango sticky rice), which is a common street food in Thailand. It is usually eaten during the peak mango season of April and May. The recipe is easy to make at home too!
- Thai DepartmentThis past Friday, Mr. Melby's Biology class visited the nearby Doi Suthep-Pui National Park to learn about human impacts on the natural environment. During their visit to Huay Kaew Waterfall, they removed trash, identified invasive species, and thought of possible ways to preserve natural environments that are within close proximity to urban development. At the second site, Montha Than Waterfall, students observed a more pristine and untouched habitat, which they used as a baseline to compare to other sites. After a rigorous walk, students enjoyed the refreshing waterfall.
- Mr. MelbyGrade One was blessed to receive some generous donations from a current CMIS parent and retired grade one teacher. Thank you again to Mrs. Roulston for passing on so many wonderful resources and books for our classroom libraries!
