Grade 10 Bonding Trip Creating Meaningful Connections in Pattaya September 4 - 6, 2025
This G10 bonding trip is honestly an unforgettable experience
for me, and I am more than sure that students who have been on the trip would feel the same. Across the three days, the activities were designed not only for students to “bond” but to create meaningful memories together so we all value the relationship between each other. On Day 1, we reflected on the trip we went on to an elderly home the day before. The reflection allowed us to value not only our family who takes care of us from the very beginning of our lives, but also the ones who would stay with us towards the end of our lives, and that is our friends. On Day 2, on top of visiting the Sanctuary of Truth where we learned how cultures should be equally respected no matter where they are, we also did organized activities that allowed us to bond between genders, on top of the free time activities where students bond through hobbies and commonly liked activities physically. The heart touching questions and answers between boys and girls allowed us to bond mentally, and understand the core values of each other so the relationship between us can go beyond normal friends. On the final day, we watched the edited video of the tour to Sanctuary of Truth, and it was a fun experience. We were made to think ahead to our 12th graduation, which was also a reminder for me that we only have two years left before leaving most friends, all who will go to different corners of the world. I valued this trip truly and deeply, and the activities were meaningful while the results are more than respected. Again, it will be an unforgettable memory for me. Diya (G10)
