- Wai Khru Ceremony
Last week, every student came to school with a bunch of flowers for their teachers. The flowers used in the arrangement are symbolic. Dok Ma Khue (eggplant flower) represents the respect because when the tree is blooming its branches bend down in the same way a student pays respect to their teacher. Ya Praek (Bermuda grass) represents patience because although the grass looks wilted it is still very much alive. Khao Tok (popped rice) represents discipline because the rice is placed in a pan together and heated up to become popped rice. Dok Kem or Ixora flower represents the sharp wit and brainy because Kem in Thai means the needle.
The ceremony usually begins with a Buddhist prayer ritual and followed by the student's chant. In order to express their gratitude and formalize their relationship and also asks for the blessing of the student’s studies.
