Focus on Thai Culture - Secondary Wai Kru Ceremony 2022

Wai Kru is a beautiful part of Thai culture. This event typically takes place all across the country within the first few weeks of the school year. It is a chance for students to show appreciation to their teachers by presenting them with flowers, giving a kind word and pledging to respect and listen to their teachers for the coming year.
This year Secondary Head Girl, Keira and Head Boy, Carry did an excellent job of MC’ing the one hour event keeping everyone attentive and tuned in. Prim in Year 9 made her debut Wai Kru song debut, filling the hall with her beautiful voice while Karn in Year 13 led all of Secondary school in the Student Pledge. Fleur in Year 12 made a beautiful speech summarising the feeling of love and community that she has felt since her enrolment in Preschool while Krittat and Nikita also made compelling and heartfelt speeches of appreciation to their teachers not to mention Mr salmon’s ‘back to the future’ themed speech going back in time to when he was young. The Secondary choir of 14 singers, and Mr Graham on the piano was the cherry on top as they finished off the event with the sound of music. Well done to everyone involved in making an event of this magnitude such a resounding success!
