Learning Beyond Boundaries

You view some photographs of the school's past Learning Beyond Boundaries overseas trips on BLS Instagram.  (https://instagram.com/boonlaysec)

You would love to be exposed to overseas immersions. With no more travel restrictions, you wonder: Will I finally get the chance to experience what the seniors did?

Just then, you hear laughter and a loud 'Kon’nichiwa!' What? Isn’t that Japanese language? You turn around and spot a senior seated at a corner table, plugged into his iPad and conversing animatedly. He waves at Shaun and you to join him. It is a video call with his peers from Japan!

'He’s talking to our friends from Japan. These days, we get both physical immersions and virtual exchanges. Sometimes we travel overseas, and other times we connect digitally when it’s more convenient or when schedules don’t align. We have overseas partner schools in Japan, Korea, Thailand, China and India,' Shaun speaks.

You have always found the prospect of meeting new people and learning about new traditions and customs exciting. Paired with digital technology, the learning experience will surely be enhanced!
