Traill International school prides itself on its homely, caring atmosphere with students and teachers working together as a family to make life better inside the school and in the wider community.

Although the Student Council was formed only 18 months ago, it already plays a significant role in organising events to benefit others and widen the experiences of students within the school. Areas in which they are involved include; organising and taking part in assemblies; fund raising to equip an upcountry school as well as providing their own labour to paint that school; organising the annual Prom and Graduation ceremonies; designing and hand printing school T-shirts and selling them to raise money for charity as well as acting as ushers for Parent Consultation evenings.

In addition, each tutor group through the PSHE Programme helps to organise and participate in special events such as Environment Week; the auction of goods created from recycled articles was particularly successful this year. For International Day each Tutor Group is responsible for running its own stall based on a chosen country. The variety of national food available last year would make any Four Star hotel buffet chef jealous – the chocolate fondue from Switzerland was very popular. In addition, at the end of each term, students write and perform their own skits, choreograph original dance routines etc. to put on their own variety shows – all without any drama classes or significant help from teachers. Needless to say, many students go on to enter the Thai entertainment business as singers, dancers, musicians, actors, presenters etc.

Everyone has a part to play on stage or backstage. As a small, friendly school, everyone gets the opportunity to participate in some event during the school year.
