Rainy Season

With the rainy season here, Old Hope Sschool has been badly flooded again. For students’ safety, all classes are suspended and students are to remain at home until further notice.

A New Learning Centre

We are delighted to celebrate the opening of a new learning centre in Sihanouk village. This centre gives children in the community a safe and welcoming place to learn, develop their skills, and grow in confidence. It will provide new opportunities for education and help children build a brighter future for themselves and their village.

Meals for Sen Chay Government School

“An apple a day keeps the doctor away,” but a nourishing meal each week helps keep hunger away for students at Sen Chay Government School. Through Allan’s generous donation, students at Sen Chay School and two other government schools were able to enjoy a decent and fulfilling meal. For many of these children, this regular meal is an important source of nourishment. The meal may be simple, but its impact is significant. We are deeply grateful to Allan and his generosity is making a meaningful difference in the health and education of children in these communities.

Meals for Hope Schools

Thanks to Allan’s continued donations, nutritious meals can be provided to students at all Hope Schools. Although these meals are simple and not a luxury, they are filling and provide the nourishment children need to stay healthy. Allan’s generosity makes a meaningful difference in the lives of many students and supports their education and well-being.

Activities at Hope Schools

Our teachers are regularly supported through Foo Yong Kwong’s monthly contributions. This generous support helps us support part of our teachers monthly salary. Despite their salary not matching those offered in the education sector, the teachers make many personal sacrifices to educate, encourage, and guide the children in our schools. We express our heartfelt gratitude to Foo Yong Kwong for this faithful support.

Classes at Hope Schools

Thanks to the teachers from the various Hope Schools for generously giving their time to support the children in Siem Reap and help them improve their language skills.

Fun At New HS

Teacher Sophea has always been innovative in managing New Hope School. At times, she plans games instead of conducting a regular lesson, making learning enjoyable and encouraging students to look forward to coming to school.

Celebration!!!

It’s time to celebrate!!! Taking this season of God’s love, we planned a series of Christmas/New Year parties for our students and also for remote village schools. Thanks to Allan’s donation and Bro Arun hard work, the kids and adults were able to have a time of laughter and a love lunch box. Kids were also given stationaries as gift to prepare them for the coming year. We look forward to a greater next year to be of service to the people of Siem Reap.

Teacher's Retreat!!!

The first teacher's retreat after 9 years. The teachers and their families deserved this break after giving 9 years of hardwork to keep Hope Schools going. It wasn't an easy task but they had persevere and they schools are sustained by their sacrifices. Thank you all teachers and Bro Arun!!!

A place for wholesome activities

Hope schools premises are open to students and villagers for wholesome activities. Great to have them here for games such as soccer.

Teaching students to protect themselves.

As Cambodia is still a third world country, the kids are very vulnerable to many unscrupulous foreigners. Principal Arun, took some time to teach the children how to protect themselves from such foreigners.

We are glad that the local had raised their own funds to gave our 4th school a concrete ground. This is useful in we season, else the students will be trotting on wet and clumpy soil

Meals for students at our schools

We are glad that we could provide a meal once a month for our students. It may not amount to full stomach for a full month, but at least, they had a decent meal once a month. Many thanks to those who are supporting us, without their supports, we will not be able to provide them with these meals.

Thankful to friends.

Thankful to friends like Jancy, who gave to provide meals for many others besides our students. We never ask but she had just donate out of her generous heart. Because of such generosity, not only from Jancy but many others, students and villagers were able to have meals in these trying times due to the pandemic.

Bonding times with students!

Teachers don’t just teach. They spend time with the students to bond with them. Teacher Davan brought the students to a picnic for a time of bonding.

Building Student's confidence

After spending so much time learning, the students were being given a chance to present. Through such presentation, the students will gain confidence through speaking in English. Great job, Teacher Thon

Meeting with Siem Reap Education Ministry

We are grateful that Hope Schools are recognized by the local government authority. This was the time whereby we report to the ministry on the activities of Hope Schools. After the meeting, Mr Phearun, the local in charged of all the schools met with the teachers to brief and give them the direction to move forward. Thankyou Bro Arun!!!

Giving, giving, giving!!!

As wave of hunger swept across Cambodia and gasoline, fuel and food prices are all raising, having basic meals seems to be out of reach for many vulnerable families. We gave as much as we could, through the generosity of friend like Jancy, Allan, Foo YK, KY etc and many were blessed with a simple decent meal.

A new roof for Hope School-Kroyabriel

Our 4th School, Hope School-Krobayriel, started with just tables and chairs in an open field. When it rains, classes had to be cancelled. Thankfully, together with the locals, we were able to build a roof for our 4th school. It was a combined financial resources, from the local and us, that we were able to have this roof for the students to have classes even when it rains.
