In the long summer international break between academic years, Traill International School runs its extremely successful summer school programme.
The summer school is one of the jewels in the school’s crown. While it only lasts for four weeks of the year, our staff have spent years developing an outstanding formula to ensure that our summer school students not only enjoy their summer break but at the same time expand their knowledge in fun and innovative ways.
The summer school is split into two age groups, key stage 2 (kindergarten and primary) and key stages 3 and 4 (secondary/senior). Each year a topic is selected as the basis for the specially constructed lessons and this year the chosen theme is nature. The students will be considering the impact that nature has on us as well as the impact we have on nature.

The students in the key stage 2 group will be working on their projects relating to nature, which will involve them carrying out science experiments, using different mediums in art, reading stories about nature and maybe starting their own ecological story. By the end of summer school, they will all have an idea of just how powerful nature is. Included within the programme are two trips per group that link up with the theme and this year one of the visits will be to a farm so that the students can witness firsthand how we can all help sustain the planet. The students will also have time to enjoy swimming, drama, games and sport. A full timetable indeed!
In our senior summer school, the students will have the benefit of our specialists in science, English and mathematics, to give them a more in-depth and scientific understanding of nature and its effects. They will also carry out practical scientific experiments under expert supervision. We are also able to offer students additional opportunities within the timetable to improve their language skills in Mandarin Chinese, Thai and English. If that weren’t enough, they would also enjoy, swimming and sports. The school runs from June 25 to July 20, 2018.
Understandably places are limited, so if you are looking for a summer placement for your child and would like a copy of a timetable, please contact our school office at 02 718 8779.
Roll on summer!
