Si Ri Panya Secondary Drama Performance
Our Year 7, 8 and 9 students are proud to present “Harry Rings: Lord of the Potters” on Tuesday 17th June at 18:30, taking place in the newly opened Si Ri Panya Drama Studio. From selecting the script to designing and painting every set, our students have poured their creativity and dedication into this production.
Ticket Information• Price: ฿150 per ticket• Available in advance only from the Si Ri Panya school office—seats are limited and no tickets will be sold on the door. To make sure that everyone can enjoy the play without distractions, we are asking that no children under 10 attend - the year 1-6 students will have already seen the performance earlier in the day.
Come along to support our young performers as they blend the best of Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings into one unforgettable show. We look forward to welcoming you!
Discover What’s on Campus: Nearly 10,000 m² of Learning, Play and Community
Did you know that Si Ri Panya International School sits on nearly 10,000 m² of purpose-built campus space? That’s almost a full hectare—making us one of the most spacious and well-equipped schools on Koh Phangan.
We know many families don’t get to see the whole site day to day, so we’re sharing our updated campus map to give a clearer picture of the incredible facilities your children use each week.
Our campus includes:
Dedicated classrooms for Primary and Secondary
Specialist labs for Science, Design & Technology, Food Tech and ICT
Drama and Music studios, two libraries, and an open-air atrium
Full-size basketball court, shaded outdoor areas and covered play zones
Two dining halls and a Community Café opening in September 2025
Support spaces for SENCO, first aid, and staff wellbeing
We’re also growing with our students—adding Year 10 in 2026 and Year 11 in 2027—to provide continued learning through to IGCSEs and beyond.

Secondary Board Games Enrichment Club
We often talk about screen time and wonder if our children are getting too much. At Si Ri Panya, no game or social media is a core part of our technology policy, but we also believe that encouraging students to take part in other activities will help them to avoid feeling out of touch, as well as developing their social and emotional skills. Our popular Board Games enrichment session gives students a range of different games to enjoy, and we are hoping to keep expanding our range to keep them smiling ... and off their phones!
Calling All Young Artists!
We’re excited to launch our first-ever Si Ri Panya Charity Colouring and Activity Book, as part of this year’s Charity Committee initiative!
We’re looking for 50 brilliant contributions from pupils in Years 1 to 6—from colouring pages and creative puzzles to funny stories and magical scenes. The finished book will be sold at our End of Term Learning Event, with all proceeds going to charity.
How to Enter: Children can collect an entry sheet from their teacher or download it here:👉 Download Entry Sheet (PDF) Pupils are welcome to submit more than one entry!
Deadline: Monday 16th June
Let your imagination shine—this is your chance to be published and make a difference!

Ongoing Weekly Reminders
Library Reminder: Please check at home for any lost books and return them to the Primary or Secondary library so everyone can enjoy them!
Bottle Cap Collection: We're collecting bottle caps for our Precious Plastic Project! Please bring your bottle caps to the collection point located inside the Primary school gate on the left. Secondary students can bring theirs to the Design and Technology Lab. Find out more about this exciting long-term project here: Precious Plastic Phangan Facebook.
Drop Off and Pick Up: Drop-off is at 8:30 am (not earlier). Pick-up times are 2:50 pm for Primary (or 4:00 pm if attending an ASA) and 4:00 pm for Secondary. Please be punctual, as some Primary children have been waiting up to 30 minutes after 2:50 pm, which can be distressing for them.
No Idling Zone: Help make the area outside our school a NO IDLING ZONE which means switching car engines off while you wait for your child. We appreciate your action for the environment and health of all.
Absence and Illness: Notify your child's class teacher (Primary) or form teacher (Secondary) directly to inform them of absence and sickness.
Head Lice Check: Continue to check your child's hair for head lice regularly and treat accordingly. Boys and girls with long hair need to tie it up.
Class WhatsApp Groups: Join the parent WhatsApp group for your child's class via the QR code HERE
Healthy snacks: Healthy snacks only. No sweets, crisps/chips or cakes at break times. Birthdays are the exception and dealt with per class policy.
