Kindergarten 3/1: Designed stylish keychains from bottle caps, under the inspiring mentorship of Teacher Piyathida Puangdokjee.
Kindergarten 3/2: Transformed tissue paper rolls into huggable dolls, supervised by Teacher Oraphin Panyalert.

Furthermore, it instilled a positive environmental consciousness and an appreciation for the value of recycled items. These are fundamental building blocks for growing into responsible and quality citizens, in line with the principles of the Philosophy of Sufficiency Economy.
