The Chiang Mai Experience was introduced in 2003 as an optional program involving Year 9 students spending eight weeks in Northern Thailand.
This unique experience is designed as an inclusive ‘self-discovery journey’ endeavouring to lead students to a deep self-understanding, self-awareness and true independence. It also serves to provide students with a deep and lasting sense of international mindedness, where an understanding, acceptance and respect for different cultures, religions and ways of life become a hallmark of their character.
Kardinia Sum Pun is a resort style campus, located approximately 16 km north east of Chiang Mai City, in Thailand. Our six acre campus provides a wonderful home-base for students. The facilities include a swimming pool, separate Jacuzzi, sauna, large recreation facility, floodlit tennis/basketball court, lake, open air dining facility, cafe, play space and a gym/activity room. Accommodation for all students is in air-conditioned ensuite rooms with regular cleaning services and laundry provided. Meals are served in the open dining hall by the large ponds.
Kardinia International College acknowledges all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, past, present, and emerging as the traditional custodians of this land.
