More than 3,000 Singsamut School students kicked off their school year by receiving “flags of unity” they will carry throughout their education.

Prasit Luangthong, principal of the Sattahip school, handed out the colored flags to Matthayom 1-6 students before parents and teachers June 4.

Flags are distributed each year, with each grade assigned a specific color. Meant to inspire unity and honor between classmates, the flag’s color remains the same for all pupils until graduation.

It’s flag day at Singsamut School when students receive their colored “flags of unity”. It’s flag day at Singsamut School when students receive their colored “flags of unity”.
