Our extensive 6 week Puberty Classes are under way. The boys and girls have separate instruction as Cambodia is still a very shy culture and not as open as other Western cultures.
We have added a section on Gender Equality and Roles as it is imprtant to learn that girls are equal in our society.
We distributed 25 Sanitary Kits to the girls class. The boy have been instructed on the working of their bodies and the hormonal changes. The most fun part of the class was learning how to put on a condome. This is practised on a cucumber and always bring lots of smiles and nervous laughter.
We have teamed up with www.knowandgrow.org and are distributing a 44 page booklet in both Khmer and English, which explains how ones body changes.
Thanks to our supporters who enable us to continue with teaching important knowlege in a young persons life.
