This school year the Cambodian Education Department changed the school year schedule. While our last full month of school used to be October, we ended this year at the beginning of August after our students took their examinations. As you will see from the photos this month, there was a lot of learning and studying for the exams. Students spent extra time in groups and with their teachers during free periods. Our teachers also designed special review lessons for the students to increase their skills and memory of content they studied earlier in the school year.
We are pleased with the results of the exam, and excited to use the data to formulate teaching strategies that will fuel further growth and achievement.
We are so grateful our teachers had this productive time to work together as grade levels from both schools to sharpen their teaching skills. Our teachers are grateful as well, stating that “Now, our school…is loved by all the students and their parents, and has become one of the Child Friendly Schools.” Our Cambodia School Director stated that, “They (teachers) found a lot of help this year to make all teachers strengthened and confident in providing and sharing knowledge to their kids.
A parent meeting was also held and the head of Poipet’s Education Department and other local community leaders attended the gathering. Our students were honored for their achievements and also presented traditional songs and dances. The Education Department complimented and thanked Love Without Boundaries for our support in providing for the education of students who may not have otherwise been able to attend school. We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to share in such a proud moment for our students, their parents and the greater Poipet area community leaders.
We are proud of each and every one of our staff at the Believe in Me schools. The work they do every day matters to every child and parent that belongs to our school family and so do each of YOU! Thank you, from the bottom of our LWB hearts, for the lifesaving gift of education that you are providing for our students each and every day at our BIM schools.
