EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES
Education is the most powerful weapon to use to change the world.
The Kindergarten
More than 30 children aged 5 to 7 attend kindergarten, divided into two classes, based on level and age. Lessons take place from 8 to 9 in the morning and from 2 to 3 in the afternoon.
The basics of the English language are studied, jobs are made with recycled material and educational activities are carried out for personal hygiene and respect for the environment.
Kindergarten has always been the primary commitment of volunteers for kings years. Now Nana and Srey Leab, with the help of other teenage girls, take care of the little ones every day.
English lessons
About 80 children study English in our school. They are divided into 4 groups and the lessons usually take place in the afternoon.
Each group follows a book based on the level and skills developed in previous years.
Until 2020 this work was done by local teachers with the support of volunteers. Now Saran and Pheaktra, with the help of the teenage boys and girls, take care of English classes for all the children in the village.
Khmer Lessons
Unfortunately there are many children and young people in the village who are not writing and reading their language. Who has lost years of school because she had to work for her parents and who has never attended school. Taking Khmer lessons is very important and the results are more and more satisfying over time.
Ah Nhat follows around 30 children divided into two
The computeer room
The computer room was also followed for 2 years first by volunteers and then by a local teacher.
About 50 children have the opportunity to learn how to use computers and classes usually take place in the late afternoon. The little ones learn to use the keyboard and the older ones learn the use of world, excel and the internet.
Apoa manages the computer room and takes care of maintenance and lessons every day.
Recycling Workshops
Sart Cambodia is the project that keeps our children most engaged. Waste collection activities take place every day and plastic is recycled in different ways.
Srey Nit and a group of teenagers, with passion and enthusiasm, follow the children every day during the activities and make this important project grow.
Sports, drawing and traditional Khmer music
Football training and tournaments in our campeo and in the city of Kampong Cham. Lessons of watercolor drawing and lessons of traditional Khmer dance, are fundamental moments of leisure to learn in a dynamic and creative way.
Apoa takes care of drawing lessons, Anat of dance and Pheaktra of sports activities
