Thailand: Wai Khru Ceremony

Written byPreetam Rai
Posted 9 June 2007 3:57 GMT

Richard Barrow at Thai-Blogs.com has pictures from the Thai Wai Khru Ceremony. I think one of the highlights for us during the first semester in schools in Thailand is the Wai Khru Ceremony. This is when the students pay respects to their teachers and present them with flowers or jasmine garlands.
