The classrooms are down one side of long corridors. The entrance to the classrooms are through large open doors.


The children sit in rows facing a long chalk board at the front of the classroom.


There are no heaters nor carpets. Large windows help to keep the classrooms cool.


I took these photos at the beginning of the cool season, so some of the children are wearing coats as they feel cold. The temperature is 32 c and I am very, very hot!

The children have English and Thai lessons every day.

They also have a daily maths lesson. Below you can see the children practising their number bonds.

The children keep their school bags on their chairs. They do not wear shoes in the classrooms or anywhere else within the school building.

The children pay for their own text books and so write in them. The Kindergarten classes have a siesta after lunch.
