On Saturday 27th of January the third and the most enthusiastic Puppy Cup was held at Prep 53.

449 young swimmers plus their parents, grandparents, cousins, (and even one pet) attended.

This swim meet was established by Bangkok Prep to develop younger, less competitive and even less experienced swimmers, by competing in a FUN and relaxed swim competition.

Our young Bulldogs (Puppies) performed extremely well and all of them now have an official FINA recorded swim time for the 25m in the strokes they swam.

Much thanks and genuine gratitude needs to go to the volunteer students (both Primary & Secondary – ONE School) and the willing and able competent staff who gave up a whole Saturday to ensure we are the flagship international School of swimming!

At least 15 International Schools in Thailand are looking forward to Puppy Cup 4 (2019) which happens to be on Australia Day – Saturday January 26th 2019 – could there be a sausage BBQ included? Shrimp on the Barbie?

The Aquatics Department thanks FOBP for their unwavering support and work for the school regardless of their child’s swimming ability; the curriculum staff who took on challenges of numbers and shined through, and also our student leaders – both Primary and Secondary, who showcase to the whole International School community – that the Bulldogs are the Best!

Also, thanks to our main partners Park Court Sukhumvit 77 and Kawa Haus Condominium On Nut 77.
