It is with pleasure that I extend to you a warm welcome to Thalun International School Yangon Myanmar. A good school is not about the facilities and resources; however, it is about the people and its core beliefs. Thalun’s core beliefs are represented well in our Vision and Mission statements.
According to the Vision and Mission statements, Thalun International School students are prepared to improve whatever community they are in, making good sense of their academic and creative abilities.
Thalun International School inspires students to fully develop their personal and intellectual potential and nurtures them to be reflective, resilient and compassionate individuals. The education at Thalun International School prepares them not only to embrace challenges and to become responsible citizens of our diverse global society but also to actively contribute to Myanmar’s development resulting in a positive impact.
The education at Thalun International School clearly echoes the words of Howard Gardner, an educational scholar. “I want my children to understand the world, but not just because the world is fascinating and the human mind is curious. I want them to understand it so that they will be positioned to make it a better place.” In this respect, Educators of Thalun have embedded global competencies into their existing practices.
As the Director of Thalun International School, I believe that it is my responsibility to maintain and continue to build a supportive and collaborative spirit at our school. Together as a school community, we will build on the traditions of the past and meet the challenges of the future in innovative and exciting ways.
Thank you for your interest in Thalun. We eagerly look forward to meeting you soon.
Dr. Winsome Saldanha
