Friday, June 7th, was a day to remember for all at Wells International School! The Wells School celebrated its 25th Anniversary and the Grand Opening of the Chonburi campus. It was a day filled with excitement, celebration, and reflection as we opened our doors to our guests, students, and parents for a memorable event.
Dr Chang Yao-Lang, the Chairman of Everclever Education Group, opened the ceremony with a heartfelt speech, welcoming our community members and valued guests from abroad. We were honored to host guests from the University of Yangon, the Banbueng Mayor’s office, representatives of the Taipei Economic & Cultural Office in Thailand, the Chonburi Ministry of Education, and representatives from Villa Forest.
All the participants and visitors were amazed by our students’ performances, such as the traditional Thai dances, the repertoires of the senior and junior choirs, the band’s enthralling renditions of well-known songs, and the dance performances.
Esteemed guests came to celebrate the day with us and honored us with profound speeches. Industry leaders, such as Mr. Chang Chun-Fu, the Representative of the Taipei Economic & Cultural Office in Thailand, highlighted the significance of our school in the community. Mr. Surasit Nithiwutthiworak, the Project Advisor & Representative of Villa Forest, spoke about our close partnership with Villa Forest, and how we look forward to many more years of mutual growth and collaboration. Mr Tonn from Academy Fantasia and a Wells Alumni from 2010 shared fond memories of his days as a Wells student. Lastly, a pivotal member of the school leadership team, Dr. Ray de la Pena, talked about our beloved school and what makes it so special.
The grand finale had our Chairman and community members participate in the ribbon cutting ceremony. The cascade of firecrackers outside added to the excitement of the day as all the guests gathered downstairs for refreshments and shared in the success of the day.
As we concluded our Grand Opening and 25th Anniversary celebration, each and every Wells teacher, staff and leadership member were filled with pride and gratitude. This event was about reflecting on our past and also celebrating the partnerships and community spirit that have brought us this far. The unveiling of our new facilities and the shared moments of joy have set the stage for a bright future. Thank you to everyone who joined us. Here’s to the next 25 years of excellence and growth.
