Loi Krathong: Monday 11th November 2019
Loi Krathong is a festival for honouring the rivers and water.
A Krathong is floated on water with good wishes for the year ahead.
The Krathong is made from woven banana leaves and decorated with flowers and incense.
Thai dress
Students are encouraged to wear traditional Thai clothes to school. Any effort is appreciated.
You may find the clothes at the local markets, Big C or Tesco. The best help would come from asking your Thai friends, nannies or drivers to help.
Please wash the clothes before wearing them.
Thank you.
Primary Thai Team
Well-Being
Influenza A is present at the moment. We are reminding students to cough and sneeze without spreading their germs onto their hands and to wash their hands often. Please do keep your child home if they are showing what could be the early signs and do stay in touch with us if they are diagnosed with Influenza.
The Young Americans
International School Bangkok will be hosting workshops in music, dance and performance to students from 6 to 18 years old. The workshops are offering by the Young Americans on 25 – 26 January 2020. For more detail, please click here.
Learning
