Thai cave boys return to school (SBS)

A dozen boys rescued from a cave in northern Thailand have returned to school.

At Mae Sai Prasitsart School in Chiang Rai province where six of the boys attend, all of the 12 boys were given a warm welcome back to school in a ceremony marked with Buddhist prayers, Chiang Rai officials said on Monday.

Dressed in their respective school uniforms, the boys were also given team shirts of Germany’s Bayern Munich football club by a club representative.

A dramatic 19-day search and rescue mission for the group, a local youth football team, gained much attention, sympathy and admiration from around the world. Read more
