The school had to close temporarily, and in November 1942 the college moved to Sriracha to occupy a new, temporary, school.At the time, the location was a wild lemongrass and pineapple farm. After the war, Assumption College reopened in Bangkok, but hostels for students were damaged and so some pupils remained in Sriracha.
