It is part of exploring some of study sites beyond the school to able the children experience and develop their life skills. This year we travel to the Bangsaen Aquarium & Museum and Nature Study Center and Mangrove Forest Conservation for Ecotourism, Chonburi, to study the marine life in Thailand and the importance of the mangrove forest to the coastal area in Chonburi.
Students will explore in the aquarium and the conservation site all day under the teachers’ supervision to meet the purposes of the study trip and be safe throughout the trip.
