“Poy-sian Brand” with TSK Handed Educational Board Games to 36 Schools throughout Thailand

From 21 August to 1 September 2023, Gold Mint Product Co., Ltd., the manufacturer and distributor of Poy-sian Brand inhaler, in cooperation with TSK Game and Products Co., Ltd., held the 1 Educational Reinforcement Project by using a Board Game-based Learning Activity, of the academic year 2023. In doing this, Mr Theerawut Srimangkhala – a government teacher at Ban Nong Khu (Nong Khu Witthayakhan) School, was the project coordinator while Mr Metha Charoenthanawat – an executive committee of TSK Game and Products Co., Ltd., was the board game producer.

For a school, 16 sets of board games which are comprehensively related to these subject areas – Mathematics, Thai Language, Foreign Language, Social, Religious and Cultural Studies, Science and Technology, Health and Hygiene, and Physical Education, were provided by the company. 36 schools that have been selected to join the workshop and get the sets of board games are in 12 provinces – Khon Kaen, Maha Sarakham, Chaiyaphum, Chiangmai, Lamphun, Lampang, Phra Nakhon Sri Ayutthaya, Angthong, Singburi, Yala, Narathiwat and Pattani.  

“This can be counted as our company’s first time to hold run a direct educational reinforcement activity since we do consider that the use of board games is a creative learning method that helps students remember subjects of study alternatively from rote memorization. It reinforces learners to understand needed matters along with building critical thinking skills, as well. Although many schools joining the event are from far distances or even the opportunity expansion ones, the teachers confirm that this equipment will be built upon to set up a board game club for the sake of education and beneficial leisure time-spending for students in their schools. This is what we pay attention to and are proud of.”, said Mr Nutthapong Larbboonsarp (PhD).  

This activity opened up a chance for the students from all levels from different schools to enjoy playing board games together, which brings about their bond and friendship. Likewise, Poysian piggy banks were given to these event-joining schools for more educational reinforcement purposes in advance.  

As for the venues, the company received kind hospitality from Khon Kaen Witthayayon School, Khon Kaen Province; Rajamangala University of Technology Lanna, Chiangmai Province; Ayutthaya Sueksa School, Phra Nakhon Sri Ayutthaya Province; and Yala Rajabhat University, Yala Province.
