Regents School students help charities

by Derek Franklin

The Regents School has played a big part in supporting Pattaya charities for many years. The Father Ray Foundation has received much support, including regularly welcoming the youngsters from the Father Ray Day Care Center to the Regents Early Learning Center.

International students have also visited the School for the Blind and the Vocational School for People with Disabilities, but a lot of their work has been at the Father Ray Children's Village.

A brand new sports court is under construction at the Village, sponsored jointly by the Regents School and Jesters Care for Kids.

That's where the annual Picnic in the Park will take place in May.

The latest group of students to visit the Village arrived with buckets of paint, brushes, and rollers, and spent three days painting the boundary wall from a drab grey to a dazzling white, complete with the school's emblem.

Showing the students a different side to Pattaya and getting them involved in charity work will go towards ensuring they grow into responsible members of society.
