The Vocation camp in Thailand was organized since 1971 already for 47 times. After the camp there were 9 students who applied for the Aspirantate for the coming school year 2018-2019. The school year in Thailand is starting in May.

In Thailand there are two Aspirantates, one in Hua Hin (Grade 7-9) with 40 boys and the second in Banpong - Nazareth House (Grade 10-12) with 25 boys of secondary high school. Most of the Salesian consecrated vocations in Thailand are coming from these two Aspirantates.
