Thailand at the Heart of Our Educational Project at Samui Bilingual School

 

At Samui Bilingual School, we firmly believe in the importance of cultural and linguistic immersion as a cornerstone of education. Located in a rich and diverse Thai environment, our school integrates the Thai language and culture into the core of its educational project, aiming to enrich our students' learning experience and promote intercultural dialogue.

In-depth Thai Language Learning

Recognizing the importance of language as a carrier of cultural identity and communication, we offer Thai courses tailored to all levels. For children with two Thai parents, our program provides in-depth Thai language instruction, treated with the same rigor and educational richness as the other main languages in our curriculum. This not only preserves their linguistic heritage but also fully develops it, preparing them to excel in a multilingual environment.

Cultural and Historical Discovery

Beyond linguistic learning, our educational project is a journey through Thai history and culture. Through thematic projects, educational outings, and collaboration with local artists, we invite our students to explore the cultural, artistic, and historical riches of Thailand. These activities are not limited to factual knowledge but engage students in an active discovery process, allowing them to form personal connections with the surrounding culture.

Local Artists and Artisans

Collaborating with local artists and artisans plays a crucial role in our pedagogical approach. By integrating traditional Thai art and craftsmanship into our curriculum, we provide students with unique opportunities for practical learning and creativity. These interactions not only enrich their understanding of cultural diversity but also foster respect and appreciation for Thai artistic traditions.

 

The integration of the Thai language and culture into our program reflects our commitment to a comprehensive and inclusive education. By immersing our students in the linguistic, cultural, and historical environment of Thailand, we open the doors to a deeper understanding of the world around them and prepare them to become respectful and informed global citizens. At Samui Bilingual School, we are proud to make Thailand not only a place of learning but also a daily source of inspiration for our students.
