Trashion ShowTues 8th & Wed 9th June
NIST Fashion Show 2010 01/02/10
This year the fashion will take place on the 1st and
2nd of June and the theme is
...fashion
from recycled materials. Here
are examples of some inspiring pieces of fashion created by using recycled
old materials:
The basic idea of trashion show is that the
participating designers have to make their clothes out of 80% recycled
materials. This could mean that you could use old fabric or anything that
has been used before. The money that is raised from the ticket sales for the
trashion show will go to Habitat For Humanity which will support their goal.
The designers that will participate could work individually
or in smalll groups. We are hoping to have ten different kinds of
collections made by NIST students which will be presented in the fashion
show. We look forward to your participation in the fashion show and making
this event a big success.
WANTED
Pieces of fabric,
trash, junk..

“Year 3
students have been using plants on the NIST campus as inspiration for numerous
works of art. After looking at traditional Chinese Ink Painting and Japanese
Woodblock Prints, students explored the two mediums with their own observations
from nature.”

Jackie Chan Speaks to NIST Students
13/11/09
NIST students heard an inspiring talk by
Jackie Chan followed by a dialogue session with him. Jackie Chan’s visit to NIST
was part of the third ASEAN event series "Bridges - Dialogues towards a Culture
of Peace”.
A well-known actor, philanthropist, and Goodwill Ambassador Jackie Chan talked
to Year 12 and Year 13 students, as well as drama and art students from the
lower secondary school on the topic “Art and Culture as a Pathway towards
Peace.”
Linking his work
to peace building, he shared with students how, in each of his recent movies, he
has tried to give hidden messages to teach values to his audience, especially
the young. Students enjoyed the very frank talk with Chan and were able to ask
him questions on both personal and global issues.

 The
“Sleep Out” followed a week of activity at the School, Habitat Awareness
Week,
during which it was hoped all students, teachers and parents would grow in
understanding of how
important it is to have a place to live, how many people in the word are
deprived of the basic need
and how each one of us can make a difference.

MOvember: Staff Action at NIST
2/11/09
If you notice some of our male staff looking a little different in November,
do not panic. This month at NIST, some male staff (and students) are rallying
together to engage in an awareness and fund- raising programme for MOvember, the
celebration of the moustache.
MOvember is a global, annual, month-long charity drive highlighting men’s
health issues, specifically prostate cancer and depression. ‘Mo Bros’
(participating males and sponsors) supported by their Mo Sistas (female sponsors
and supportive partners), start MOvember on November 1st. They must begin clean
shaven and then have the remainder of the month to grow and groom their
moustache.
During MOvember, each Mo Bro effectively becomes a walking billboard for
men’s health and, via
their Mo, raises essential funds and awareness for significant men’s health
issues of prostate cancer and depression.
Watch out for changes and growth around the campus!
Blast Off Elementary Musical 29/10/09
On October 14 and 15, 120
Year 4,5 and 6 students blasted off into outer space on an intergalactic
adventure to bring home some Jupiter Rock! The audiences of two sold out shows
were treated to an adventure of cosmic proportions and some fine individual and
group performances. “Blast Off the Musical” was a huge success and a great
experience for all students and teachers involved. Our only problem now is where
do we store a giant 30 foot rocket??? Thanks to the NIPTA Arts committee for all
their support and to Mr Mark, Mr Craig, Mr Josh, Miss Annie and Miss Nina, who
all put in a lot of effort over the ten weeks.

Artist of the Moment
Henrik Romhild Year 12
"I was
inspired by the famous photographer,
Sebastião Salgado.
His intention was to take images of dark, harsh, and tough situations to create
thought provoking photographs. Bangkok has many areas where you can capture
interesting photos that relate to the work Salgado. This unit was based on the
theme of ‘Justice’. I believe that Poverty is a huge issue in Thailand and
thought that would be a worthy theme for my photographs. It took a lot of
experimentation and research before I could come up with these final
photographs. The purpose was not only to show that poverty exists, but to make
the images artistic as well. I did this by showing emotions through; different
body parts, including texts, editing and manipulating the images. Overall I am
very satisfied with my final result."
