Why Thai workshop

Posted on January 24, 2014 by Tina

All new Thai parents are warmly invited to join our workshop entitled “Why Thai”. We believe that a strong native language that is used for a variety of purposes is an asset and allows our children to become successful learners. This is a repeat of last year’s workshop and is dedicated to the importance of Thai as a native language in the lives of our children.  The workshop will be held on Friday, January 31, in ES Multipurpose  Room (MPR) from 7:30 to 9:00. We hope to see you there!
