Speaking Class

We run regular English speaking classes based on pronunciation and sound/word recognition. Our aim is to allow the children to communicate, even if in broken sentences. This plays on the way children learn best. Our first topics to cover include introductions, colours and objects, family, the body, weather, feelings, shopping, school and time. We will gradually build up to do more and more. We are lucky to have enough teachers (sometimes English sometimes Khmer) to run the classes in small groups to make sure the kids get the best possible experience.

A Bit of Decoration

We have been steadily brightening up the place with lots of new art. The children have tried their hands at murals, “stained glass” (with plastic and tissue paper), collarge, paper mache and painting. It’s great to let the children put their own mark on the center so they can really feel a part of it.

There was obviously some stray paintbrushes and glue spots as unseen little ones had their turn too, but nothing that a good wash couldn’t fix. It is always very good, messy fun to do art. The children love a chance to express their creativity.
