Open letter from Sally & Stephen about LKSW 2018

Dear All 

We are pleased to share that this year’s conference will be hosted at Bangkok Patana School in Thailand on the 8th, 9th and 10th November 2018. 

Save the date! The 8th will be given over to school visits in Bangkok and the 9th and 10th will be conference days at school. 

A massive thanks to Jenn Alevy and her colleagues for creating such a wonderful experience at last year’s conference in Vietnam; we certainly have a hard act to follow! 

Please can you click here to complete an Expressions of Interest in attending sign-up sheet. We hope that you can all make it. 

Until formal registration is completed any updates about the conference will be posted on the LKSW facebook page. Please do join this group here if you haven’t already done so. 

Warm regards Sally and Stephen
