RST were represented at the World Scholars ‘Tournament of Champions’ by four students, who joined up with team members from Shrewsbury International School Bangkok. Rute and Si Eun competed with Baani in a Junior Team, whilst Pam and Prinn competed with Pim Pim in a Senior Team. Our Senior Team finished 21st overall and there were a range of gold and silver medals achieved by the students. We are immensely proud of each student for taking part in this challenging tournament and gaining such impressive results, listed below.
In addition to the tournament, Pam, Prinn, Rute and Si Eun were also able to take tours of Yale, Harvard and MIT with current undergraduates; an amazing opportunity for these bright and ambitious young RST students to explore some top US universities. At the end of the tournament, the students enjoyed some well-deserved leisure time in New York City, where they visited the 9/11 memorial museum, the Met Museum and watched Hamilton on Broadway.
All in all, the trip was an incredible experience for everyone involved!
