Father’s Day

Today, Friday 2nd December, we held assemblies in remembrance of his majesty the late King Bhumibol’s birthday.

The 5th of December every year is one of the most important days for Thai people to remember. This day is a public holiday to mark the birth of Thailand’s greatest King; King Rama 9. On this day we remember His Majesty the late King Bhumibol as he is considered to be the father of the Thai nation.

Bangkok Prep staff and children paid their respects to the late King Bhumibol by joining a morning assembly in his honour.

Each month we focus on a life value across the primary and secondary school and December is when we pay special attention to the value of caring. This Monday is Father’s Day in Thailand when people can choose to show recognition and gratitude to their fathers and father figures, for the contribution they make to the lives of their children.

If you are celebrating Father’s Day but just remember that the best gift of all is time: It is what you will remember far more than a present. Happy Father’s Day!
