Thailand honors Silver Talon our new King
His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn
Niva 25 Years 4

A Dedication to the King By: Jakob Herman
Khoon ru mai kup wah, His Majesty not only had strong ties with America, but it was also his birthplace. His father and mother both met in Cambridge, Massachusetts where they were studying medicine. His father attended Harvard University and his mother studied at Simmons College. King Bhumibol only lived in America as an infant but his presence can still be felt in Cambridge at King Bhumibol Square, which was named after his birth. He grew up without his father, because he passed away when King Bhumibol was only 1 year old. He was raised by his mother who was a commoner. This impacted the way he was raised because since his mother did not always live a life of royalty, he too was raised with commoner values. King Bhumibol always thought that one of the most important things to do was to solve problems that affected real people, those who were vulnerable and needed the most help, and achieved this by going out into the field and interacting with the Thai people. He would venture to the places where these people lived. It amazed me that he was constantly traveling around Thailand and going to see the people who lived in the poor and rural parts of the country. King Bhumibol empowered the people of Thailand to be useful and to figure out ways to solve the problems that plagued
the country. He spoke face to face with the people who worked directly with these struggles whether they be farmers, policemen, or school teachers. King Bhumibol had an exceptionally scientific and creative mind. Growing up, he studied science and technology at the Ecole nouvelle de la Suisse Romande in Lausanne, Switzerland. After the passing of his older brother, the former king of Thailand, he focused his studies on political science to prepare for his new role as King. He was only 19 years old when he ascended to the throne. His majesty conceived thousands of projects and designed many inventions that aimed to combat many problems. One invention he created himself was nicknamed “The Monkey’s Cheeks�. This invention was used to solve the many floods that Thailand experiences. King Bhumibol remembered monkeys that would store food in their cheeks to eat later as inspiration for this project. He used this knowledge to create a system of reservoirs that would be used for storing excess water. This extra water would then be used for irrigation. He knew that the use of environmentally healthy solutions to solve problems not only would benefit the country, but would also make communities stronger. When I first moved to Thailand, I immediately noticed the many portraits of the King,
Niva 25 Years 5

HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej
adorning the front of public places, hanging inside Thai homes, and in offices. I would wonder why people would pray and present small gifts in front of these portraits to pay homage to him. But after learning about what he has done for this country, I understand that this is the kind of devotion that King Bhumibol inspired to the people of Thailand. I feel that this quote from His Majesty accurately expresses his goal for progress and the advancement of Thailand: “Since that time up until the present time, there have been progress and changes all through the time. The changes have not come by themselves; these changes have come from the doings of everyone in the country.” King Bhumibol lived humbly; he did not take all the credit for Thailand’s growth. Instead, he acknowledged the hard work of everyone. His Majesty cared very little about how he was viewed. What he strived for most in his 70-year reign was building Thailand into a thriving nation. In the short time I have lived here in Thailand, I have grown interested in King Bhumibol’s many accomplishments that have benefited the growth of the country and its people. I am inspired by his determination and will to create Thailand into a strong country. While studying in Switzerland, King Bhumibol collided with the rear of a braking truck outside Lausanne. He injured his back, suffered paralysis in half of his face and incurred cuts on his face that cost him the sight of his right eye. Many people are not aware that His Majesty had a glass eye. Even though he was
partially paralyzed and could only see through one eye, he continued to carry out his duties. It is his unbreaking will and everlasting determination that inspires me to work harder, and to be grateful for what I have. I would like to conclude by addressing how much King Bhumibol cherished the value of family. Another quote by His majesty truly astounded me at how much he cares for people. He stated, “The members of a family are expected to help one another whenever there is a need for assistance. The giving of aid is a merit in itself. The giver does not expect to hear others sing his praises every day, nor does he expect any return. The receiver is never the less grateful. He too, in his turn, will carry out his obligations.” His quote not only can be applied to Thai families but also to how he lived his own life. His Majesty always searched for ways to be useful to those in need and to serving those people every day. I want to make it clear that King Bhumibol never expected praise and never desired anything in return, because that is what family members do for each other. His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej considered all of Thailand to be a part of his family. Let us all remember and learn from Thailand’s gifted King and how he chose to live and serve his country. Let us look back on how he solved problems and solve our own problems in the same way. Let us carry on his legacy and strive for a better, and brighter future. Thank you. Kup khoon kup.

History of the School
Niva International School was established in 1991, known then as NIVA O verseas School (NOS), which accepted only foreign and overseas Thai students. The students then completed the British International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGSCE) program to qualify to enter Thai and overseas universities or to continue their education for the British “A� Levels. From the beginning to date, NIVA has used the Seventh-day Adventist philosophy of holistic education that harmoniously develops the intellectual, social, physical and moral capabilities to the optimum in a nonsectarian setting that welcomes and respects all human diversities. After eight years of successful operation, NOS started Niva International Kindergarten. As the student population grew steadily, the two schools were merged and relocated to the current location as Niva International School. The current school has three modern
buildings and adequate indoor and outdoor facilities to achieve the vision, mission and school goals for our students. In 2004, NIVA restructured its program to provide a complete 12-year American college preparatory education while retaining most valuable strands from the British 11-year IGCSE program. NIVA has been accreditted twice by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC); from 2010-2015 and then from 2016-2021.

Message from the CEO
Looking back to the beginning days of NIVA, I feel so grateful to all our parents, students, teachers, and staff who have been the motivation for what the school is today. It has been a long and productive journey of 25 years and now we Mr. Nathan Anthony can see clearly Founder and CEO the outstanding accomplishments of our students. Many of our alumni have become global newsmakers because of their capabilities, positive attitude, problem solving skills and leadership. We have a few pilots, engineers, surgeons, fashion designers, CEOs, business owners and other careers around the world. This year, NIVA has made a strong commitment to prepare our future students for strong leadership, global business, and technology awareness. Students also learned about passive and multiple sources of income that most universities do not teach. NIVA is looking forward to see our newer graduates with the 21st century skills to think ahead and plan their personal individual successes. I have talked to all the High School students on planning their passions for life, passions for what they want to do for their careers, and passions for their spirit and how to monetize their big dreams through their passions. The curriculum for our modern day education should include these important areas: first is English as a global language, second is technology to drive all personal and administrative branding, and third is business courses for passive and multiple sources of
income. On the light side of things, we have joined a few global competitions. One of our recent achievements is with the Manga High Maths Challenge by being number 1 in Thailand and number 3 in Asia. Moreover, our secondary students participated in the World Scholar’s Cup which was held in Bangkok and were qualified to take part in the next round, which will be held in Vietnam or Greece. Our students are gaining recognition for their skills and competencies in the academics fields. In my upcoming book, “Breakthrough Education: How to Choose your Education for a Definitive Success in Life!”, I talk about how everyone can and should take advantage of formal and informal education that are important for them to build a career that will be the most satisfying and meaningful to their lives in terms of how they want to live their lives and how they want to earn their money. The book is for parents, students, teachers, staff, administrators, accreditation agencies and governments. The purpose is to make education which caters to the specific needs of students, promoting individual success rather than just producing another brick in the wall. Lastly, I would like to end with a quote from Sir Richard Branson which says, “There is no greater thing you can do with your life and your work than follow your passions – in a way that serves the world and you.” As you reminisce over this year by looking through the yearbook, I would like to encourage you to think forward to become great through your own passions.

Message from the Homeroom Teacher The K2 class this year is composed of free-spirited students who love to do things their way. They think independently, act freely and speak carelessly. They are not scared to correct anyone who makes a mistake about something they have learned before. Playing games while learning makes them very happy. Our learning time is always a happy time. And that’s one reason I love this class. Good luck in K3 my K2 bunnies!

Message from the Homeroom Teacher Choice! Five letters that mean so much. You have many choices through life, that affects you and others. Choices that you will need to make sense of the world when sense and reason go missing. Choices to deal with problems that lie before you. You will make choices to help solve problems that could involve innovation and invention. And, you will need to make choices about who you are, and where you want to go in life.

Message from the Homeroom Teacher Ah! Grade 4‌ When I think of them, I see a family. I asked them to leap with me at the beginning of the year, to trust me, to take risks and to make mistakes. They have done just that, and so much more. It is difficult to express how proud I am of each of them, how much growth I have seen them go through, but against all odds, at every challenge I faced, they have been there for me, keeping me going, helping me grow in return‌

As a teacher I feel privileged to spend time with this richness of ideas, even when it may take some effort to get everybody to pull on the same rope and in the same direction.
