Stationery, accessories for creativity, library books from the series of the world classical literature in English, and Thai languages, and sports equipment were transferred to the school.
There was also provided financial help to pay for meals for all students and the best students received cash awards. Teachers were presented with “The Law of God” edited by the Dean Seraphim Slobodskoy, and the History of the Christian Church, the new issue of the newspaper “Orthodox Thailand”, in which there is an informational application for Thais translated by the Representation of the Russian Orthodox Church (the Moscow Patriarchate) in Thai.
