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.

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.

After Hope School's graduation ceremony, the volunteers headed to Hope School's new permanent site. It was such a joy to see the school being built partially, and that the toilet, the volleyball court and the water pump all installed and ready to be used. 

The staffs have plans to use the donations from several donors to build the concrete female toilet. It would be happening in a few months' time. 

One bad news was that the left roof of the school compound had to be removed due to the lack of permit given by the authorities. But don't fret! The staffs were working with the authorities to apply for that permit again. Hopefully in a few months' time, the roof can be restored and the classroom made bigger for more students to come and join in! 
Presently the school and its possessions were guarded by the construction worker and his family, who were paid extra to guard the school. The toys seen around the area belonged to the children of the construction worker/guard. ​
The classroom was well sheltered from the scorching sun, and there was good ventilation. The wooden tables and chairs were made by the staffs and volunteers - Vansan, Thon, Phearun and other church volunteers. Thank you for all your hard work for the school! 
Some panoramic views of the new permanent site compound! It is a really big area and can definitely serve more students. May the authorities allow the school building to be expanded.

We are all awaiting with expectation and anticipation for the school to start soon! May this school be a great blessing to the village and the students! 
A brief recap:
This new school compound was purchased in May 2015 for Hope School to have a permanent site. The current school compound was rented and the landowner had plans to sell it, thus potentially creating a dangerous situation of displacement for Hope School and her students. No suitable location could be found and purchased in Hope School's current village, but thankfully this new compound was purchased in the neighbouring village (about 2km away from the current location). There are plans to gradually move Hope School's operations to this new compound and increase the enrollment numbers in the near future.
