Introduction
Ruamrudee International School Early Years Campus (RISE), launched in August 2020, serves children aged 18 months to 5 years, offering Playgroup through Kindergarten on its 2.4‑acre site in Bangkok’s eastern Khlong Sam Wa district. Classes are small and led by certified early‑childhood teachers trained in the Reggio Emilia approach, supported by instructional aides and nannies. RISE follows a child‑centred American curriculum, aligned with RIS Minburi, enriched with Reggio‑inspired units of investigation, sensory art, Seed‑to‑Table organic gardening, and a nature‑inspired playground and atelier space.
