http://pirniehall.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Wednesday, 23 July 2008. Auld Lang Syne from Say Ta Nar. Just listen to Say Ta Nar singing Auld Lang Syne! We couldn`t believe it but just loved the sentiment. Our final day at school had arrived and we were all feeling quite emotional. This had been such an intense week full of great learning experiences but had been mainly about building friendships and linking two great schools. Hard at work on the etchings. Headteachers sign their agreements. The children hand...

Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Saturday, 9 August 2008. Visit to British Council Bangkok. With my cousin outside BC Bangkok. During the morning discussions the team asked lots of questions about all aspects of the visit, took notes and were keen to be involved and explore different ways they could assist our global partnerships. Since arriving home we have exchanged emails with the team and they are keen to keep in touch. Remembering 8.8.88. Http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/amnestyscotland.

Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border: Debating day!
http://pirniehall.blogspot.com/2010/07/debating-day.html
Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Thursday, 15 July 2010. We started of the day with an old Pirnie favourite, ‘I Feel Good! I feel mad.'. So sad, I do'. Which emotion do you feel? And showing 'Excited' at Pirniehall! They moved on to examine the issue of whether or not Burma should accept aid. The children were then split into 2 groups and were asked to carry out a discussion in role. The severity of the situation really hit home when children shared their personal experiences. We had a productive...

Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Wednesday, 15 July 2009. We can hardly believe we have just spent our last day at Say Ta Nar. We have enjoyed every moment with the children and teachers. The children remembered to hand in their cameras and it will be interesting to see their photographs this year. We noticed they go around in their free time singing and acting out the songs! Get Together' at Say Ta Nar. Sharing food after the Emotional Literacy In-Service. Our last moments together. I feel that ...

Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Sunday, 22 June 2008. The beginning of a journey.Pirniehall to Say Ta Nar. Never been involved in writing a blog before so here begins an interesting challenge.if it works and we can communicate our experiences, then there is hope for all similarly ICT challenged friends across the globe! Just realised that as someone is always taking the photographs there are only ever 3 of us in them. so Calum is on the right! How did Pirniehall become involved?

Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border: From Mae Sot to Myawaddy (Burma)
http://pirniehall.blogspot.com/2010/07/from-mae-sot-to-myawaddy-burma.html
Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Saturday, 17 July 2010. From Mae Sot to Myawaddy (Burma). We were a little bit disappointed to see that it was raining this morning but set off in high spirits to visit Burma. After an entertaining journey which involved a free tour in Burmeese we arrived at the border. Rol went very smoothly as we were prepared to hand over our passports for the day. We then set off across the Friendship bridge. Should have brought an umbrella! This isn't whisky - it's petrol.

Pirniehall visits the Thai/Burma border. Monday, 19 July 2010. Our last day already. We can't believe our last day has arrived. Everybody has been so welcoming and has looked after us so fantastically well. Say Ta Nar has felt like a home from home. Neeshar has really looked after us and it's been great getting to try so many delicious foods and treats. Yummy treats to try. Lovely longyi's - gifts from the teachers. Not always so serious! It has been really special working with Pho Cho and Neeshar. S...
