Chulalongkorn Day, on 23rd October, commemorates the death of King Rama V. Wreaths are laid at the Equestrian Statue (see right) at the Royal Plaza in Bangkok to pay homage to his memory.

Students from our school take a wreath to the local statue of King Rama V at City Hall. Here they take part in a special ceremony to pay homage to the most revered Thai king in recent history.
