This is the school's eleventh year in the community and its fifteenth year as an internationally-oriented private educational facility.

Air Chief Marshal Amarit expressed Nichada Thani's pride in "...this small but excellent educational institution serving both Thai and expatriate families." Noting that this marks the eleventh year of Rose Marie Academy, he said "We at Nichada Thani have been very impressed by the school's high standard of educational services which have been made available to our community for more than ten years."

He deemed it "...a privilege to be part of such an important mission in providing better educational opportunities for Thai and international students from the ages of 18 months to 18 years. We are pleased to continue our support of Rose Marie Academy by providing more convenient facilities necessary for the school's operations."

"Thank You" (Text of speech by Director, Rose Marie Wanchupela, on Opening Day of the New Campus)

WHAT A MAGNIFICENT DAY THIS IS!

Welcome, welcome, welcome!

There are so many who have made this day happen—so many who have turned a dream and a possibility, "maybes" and "what ifs" into reality we don 't know where to start saying "thank you."

 

First, an enormous "thank you" to all of you here today to share in this joyous moment, and an equally sincere "thank you" to those who have contributed so much but could not join us for this historic celebration.

 

Literally hundreds if not thousands have worked behind the scenes to bring this project to fruition and, although we don 't know them all, we are so very grateful.

ICE SKATING IN BANGKOK?

Yes, that's right!

Primary students (levels 1 through 6) did such a great job at fund-raising and participation in our recent International Family Day celebration that their teachers are rewarding them with a day of ICE SKATING this week!!!

Impossible though it may seem, ice skating is alive and well here and our students will have two skating instructors on hand at the Imperial Lad Prao Ice Rink to help.
