About this school
Ruamrudee International School Early Years Campus (RISE) opened in August 2020 as the early childhood campus of Ruamrudee International School (RIS), which has educated students in Bangkok since 1957. It sits on a 6-rai (2.4-acre) site on Phraya Suren Road in the Ramintra-Kanchanaphisek area. The name Ruamrudee means "union of hearts" in Thai, reflecting the school's ethos of care for every child's head, hands and heart.
RISE follows an American curriculum that mirrors the RIS Minburi campus, combining the Creative Curriculum with a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach to play-based learning. Classes run from Playgroup (ages 1.5-2) through PreK 2, PreK 3 and PreK 4 to Kindergarten (age 5). After Kindergarten, children move automatically to the RIS Minburi campus for Grade 1.
The campus is designed so children can move freely between indoor and outdoor spaces. It has a Reggio-inspired, nature-themed playground with wet and dry play areas, sand, climbing frames and a zip line, and a Seed to Table programme with a greenhouse and pesticide-free planting beds where children grow food and take part in cooking.
