RIS Opens Modern Boarding Residence at Redeemer Hall
RIS Ruamrudee International School proudly announces the opening of RIS Residence at Redeemer Hall, its newly renovated boarding facility for secondary school students in Grades 7–12. Open to students from both the RIS Minburi campus and the neighboring affiliate RIS Swiss Section, the facility accommodates up to 60 boarders in a safe, modern, and community-oriented environment.
The upgraded facilities feature bright and cozy bedrooms, updated bathrooms, and inviting study spaces designed to support both independence and academic focus. Shared areas—including common rooms, study lounges, and a dining hall—provide daily opportunities for boarders to connect, collaborate, and grow as a community.
“Our goal is to make RIS Residence feel like a second home,” said Ms. Mindi Dryer, Residence Coordinator. “From the moment students arrive, we want them to feel safe, supported, and excited to be part of a community that grows together.”
Life Beyond the Rooms
The first weeks of Residence life have already been filled with team-building activities and student outings. Boarders tackled rock climbing walls, tested their teamwork skills in an escape room, and enjoyed shopping trips as a group. Orientation days also gave students the chance to connect with their House Parents, meet their roommates, and participate in spirited games and campus tours.
“These shared experiences help students build trust and friendships,” Ms. Dryer noted. “It’s inspiring to see them encourage each other, laugh together, and create memories that will last long after their time in Residence.”
A Growing Community
With daily schedules, supportive staff, and a strong focus on both academics and well-being, RIS Residence ensures that students receive holistic care. The dining hall has quickly become a hub for celebrations, from birthdays to milestones, bringing boarders and staff together like family.
“Living in Residence teaches students independence, but it also reminds them that they are never alone,” Ms. Dryer added. “Our Residence is a place where every student belongs.”
Looking Ahead
The move to Redeemer Hall marks an exciting new chapter for boarding at RIS. Meanwhile, the former boarding facility—Seelos Residence—is undergoing renovation. Once complete, RIS will be able to welcome up to 100 boarding students across both halls, expanding opportunities for young learners to experience the unique benefits of international boarding life.
Boarding at RIS extends the school’s vibrant student life into a supportive living environment, where academics, activities, and friendships thrive together. Nestled on the idyllic Minburi campus, RIS Residence reflects the school’s commitment to cultivating independence, responsibility, and community in every student who calls it home.
