The Queen is regarded as mother to all Thai people so her birthday is also celebrated as Mother's Day. At school the students take part in a special ceremony. The school principal first pays homage to a portrait of Her Majesty the Queen. Then the teachers, representing "all mothers" are presented with flowers. The ceremony ends with singing and traditional Thai dancing.
