Language Learning Center
At Beaconhouse Yamsaard Schools, learning a second language has been found to increase the creative output of the students as well as their cognitive abilities. It has been established that learning a second language assists in helping our students understand other cultures from the world and increases their global awareness. As children become adults, they will live and work in a society that is considered to be global.
Gymnasiums
Students at Beaconhouse Yamsaard Schools have well-taught stimulating classes in the gymnasium, they learned valuable physical skills, set a pattern for lifelong fitness and grew socially from their experiences. Our gym classes provide students with physical exercise on a consistent basis. It is particularly important for the physical well being of students who do not engage in physical activities outside of school.
Playgrounds
At our campuses, we provide playgrounds that get students moving and having fun at the same time. Our playgrounds are to encourage students to run from one piece to another, giving them a healthy dose of cardiovascular, heart-healthy exercise. Part of the appeal of playgrounds is that students get to be around one another. They learn how to take turns and exercise self-control waiting for a swing to open up and etc. Social interaction in playgrounds is very important for student development.
Swimming Pools
At Beaconhouse Yamsaard Schools, swimming is one of the most important sports for our students. This is why we are offering swimming pools in all campuses. Swimming can help students build confidence, master a fun activity for both play and sport, and learn safety in the water, which can be lifesaving. Moreover, swimming can give students an intellectual and developmental boost as well.
Football Fields
In all of our campuses, we provide football fields for our students to exercise and play football with their friends. Football helps our students develop agility, speed and stamina, and also teaches them the importance of teamwork. Football also requires students to be fit and firm throughout the games. Most games require students to sprint after the ball and jog up and down the field, which are activities that build endurance and speed.
Library
At Beaconhouse Yamsaard Schools, our libraries support school programmes as well as the teaching and learning process. Our libraries serve students by providing materials to meet their various needs and encouraging reading and the use of libraries. Our students read to discover for themselves by independent study and learning how to ask questions.
Traditional Thai Music
Learning music facilitates learning other subjects and enhances skills that children inevitably use in other areas. Through learning traditional Thai music, students are able to see and connect with Thai culture. They can appreciate the melody of traditional Thai music.
Technology Integration
Technology integration is the use of technology resources in daily classroom practices, and in the management of a school. In recent years, Thailand has launched its Educational Reform with principles aiming to develop the potential of information and communication technology. The intention of the government towards this reform is to build and prepare Thai students for a culture where the information and communication through the use of ICT are important for the development of future education.
Music
Learning music facilitates learning other subjects and enhances skills that children inevitably use in other areas. Music helps develop children's language skills, self-esteem, listening skills, and brain connections.
Yoga
Yoga helps our students see the beauty and light within themselves, thereby boosting their self-confidence, allowing them to feel more comfortable with their bodies, and helping them get in touch with who they are inside. A student who learns yoga, mindfulness and relaxation will be developing essential skills for a lifetime of health and wellness in mind, body and spirit.
Tae Kwan Do
One of the main benefits of taekwondo is improving a student's strength and balance. Also, learning the patterns and sequences of taekwondo requires concentration and attention, and sparring requires focus on both one's self and one's opponent. As students dedicate themselves to a goal in taekwondo, they gain confidence as they observe their own progress and increasing mastery. This self-confidence can then be carried over into other areas of students' life.
Track and Field
We believe that exercise is an important part of kids growing up healthy. One way to get children involved in exercise is through the use of sports such as track and field.
Basketball
Playing basketball does not only promote good manners and behavior but also builds the full being of a student. By playing basketball, students are able to gain better health and social development skills. They are taught of teamwork and good sportsmanship.
Swimming
Swimming can help students build confidence, master a fun activity for both play and sport, and learn safety in the water, which can be lifesaving. Moreover, swimming can give students an intellectual and developmental boost as well.
Football
Football helps our students develop agility, speed and stamina, and also teaches them the importance of teamwork. Football also requires students to be fit and firm throughout the games. Most games require students to sprint after the ball and jog up and down the field, which are activities that build endurance and speed.
Chinese Language
Chinese is the language that has become popular and essential for the 21st century. We believe that our students need to acquire Chinese in order to become the global citizens of the world. The study of the Chinese language also opens the way to different important fields such as Chinese politics, economy, history or archaeology. But to study Chinese finally means to study a culture, a people.
