Zaman International School is a school which gives opportunities f o r s t u d e n t s j o i n m a n y International Competitions. Indeed, there is a club that was designed in purpose of preparing students for competition to be held in Bucharest, Romania. Two years ago our school sent 2 students to join the same contest where they succeeded to get bronze medal. Moreover, last month our school sent 2 students to join this competition again in Romania.

This year, our project’s title is “Dice and Devastate” which shows one of the problems faced by Cambodian people. We registered and sent our project via this following website: www.infomatrix.ro. Fortunately, our project was chosen by appointed judges. Our club has 7 members so we prepared a short

presentation that was judged by teachers of our school. Only two of us were supposed to be selected to partake in the contest. Finally the result was revealed; Song Sothy and Pen Kolneath were chosen to go to join the competition. We felt really sorry for our friends because they also put their time and effort for our project but they couldn’t go. However, they didn’t feel sorry; they even told us to give our best shot to bring medals from Romania. From that time on, we worked very hard. We stayed at dormitory with Mr.

Bari s Isik, the supervisor of our team. We even made a brief presentation for our school which was held at ‘Conference Hall’. The time has approached for us to take off.At first, we had a flight from

At Bucharest, Sothy felt cold because the temperature was below 10oC that was incredibly different from Cambodia. He didn’t have any warmer clothes on him, but luckily Kolneath lended his coat to him. Our hotel is about 20 floors high. It’s exclusive and comfortable because it is 4-star-hotel. After having a long rest, we went to

At dinner, we felt a little bit strange about the food served to us because they tasted a little bit sour and bitter. Step by step I got used to that food. After 7 o’clock, I felt so excited that the sun hadn’t set yet. It was a bit strange because I haven’t seen such a long sunny day like that.

Since 2004, our chain of friendship had begun. There was our first day in new class at new school with new friends. Our 8th grade in ZIS, we were the youngest generation in school. Although we studied in the old building but everything was new for us. We had lots of happy memories and it was all started with a little conversation. Day by day, we learnt to know each other

the hard work that we went through together in each academic year”. From us to all of you in the next generation, there are some few words that we’d like to give you: “Cherish the time that you have with your friends, forget the small l i t t l e fau l t s , and p lease appreciate the time that’s left for you and your friends to be together”.

Furthermore, to all of our teachers we’d like to say: “Thank you for teaching us to become a better person, corrected our mistakes, and always forgive us”. 12-E just wants to wish you all the best and hope we’ll meet again.

September 2010 is the year the Zaman University will open. It will be in Toul Kork. That will be only the first time ZIS has had the honor to the newest and the greatest university in Cambodia. There are a lot of reasons why they decided to build this school. The main idea of this plan was given to them by most of the Zaman student’s parent. The source of these opinions were from some of the parents of students in primary school and high school. That's because they usually obsess about their children’s future. They are content with the high standard of Zaman International school, so their desire is to give their children a chance to continue in the same school up to and including university. Mr. MURAT TUTUMLU the vice principle of Zaman says that “the quality of some universities in Cambodia is not too high and graduating students are having difficulty in finding a good job. The nation is really in need of such a great university like Zaman”.

The majors in the new school are separated into 3 main faculties, for instance the faculty of engineering has 4 subjects: •civil engineering,

•economy. Finally, the faculty of foreign languages, three subjects will comprise it such as •American culture, •English language, •Turkish and all of this is part of literature.

Everybody will have as many choices as they wish for. In particular, the entire subject is taught in English. Anyways, the plan of this building has been arranged already. The area of this school is 7000m² and they are preparing to construct about

There will be no strict rules like at our school, but the university will have regulations that we can't do without. The important point is

the cost of the new school, but there is no final total yet. In addition, all of the students that decide to go to university will always consider the value placed on the certification by soc ie ty and Mr. MURAT TUTUMLU assures us that "Every student that leaves ZIS Univers i ty wi l l have the

"After it opens in 3 or 4 our ZIS University will be filled to capacity with students ". There will be a bright future for Cambodia and he hopes that all of the Universities in this country

will play the same role as ZAMAN. "Building this university is comparable to building our future life" Prepared by Lakhena 11F

continued:’’ As for me, if you buy 1, I’ll give you 1 more for free.” I could stand it no longer so I said:’’ For me it is 250 riel for one.’’ After that ridiculous conversation, I would like to say that I’m really luckily to price my life a bit more expensive than them. Both Socheata and Visoth Thyda fell from the swing. Socheata hit her bottom on a stone and Visoth Thyda hit her leg on the swing as well. We tried to get her up immediately, but unluckily she couldn’t because she had sprained her ankle. After a moment, she started to cry. How pitiful she was? But we really don’t know why we all started to laugh seeing her face like that. Afterwards, we couldn’t leave her on the ground anymore so 6

On Saturday, 30th of May 2009, my class had an activity to Soun Soben resort which is one of Cambodia’s more interesting places to visit. On that day, there were about 15 students who participated. And our supervisor; Ms. Serife, also took part in this activity. Unluckily, our homeroom teacher Mrs.Goksel had already gone to Turkey. So, she couldn’t join us. The activity started at 8 o’clock in the morning and came to an end at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.

Even though it was such a short time, there were many events that happened to us. On the way to Soun Soben by school bus, we talked and sang together happily. In a short time, we arrived at Soun Soben. The first thing we did was to find a place to sit. Then, we ordered the food. While we were waiting for the food to be served, we spent that time to walk around, take photos etc. The scenery was absolutely wonderful. There were huts on the pond at which we could sit and entertain ourselves by fishing, eating, and taking photos. And those were the things that we did. Moreover, the a t m o s p h e r e w a s m o r e interesting because all the sides of our hut were filled with the laughter by our friends.

Unfortunately, during this unforgettable moment, there was also some unfortunate occurrences. Before we left to Soun Soben, everybody was fine. But when we arrived at Soun Soben, Dalin got a cold and she started to get hotter and hotter. So she can’t play anything the whole day. But luckily, her god sister, Bonavy took care of her. Later, while I was peeling a mango, I cut myself with a knife. And that was the second bad occurrence. After having lunch, we played some games but not for a long time, because we got bored. So we left the hut and went to ride on the swing. It was very fun because one swing held about 8 people. Meanwhile, Iem Horng told Socheata Lon:’’ You should be careful! It’s very dangerous to stand like that.’’ Socheata replied:’’ Mmm… that’s ok! My life is worth only 100 r ie l . ” Then Visoth Thyda

of us carried her back to the hut. In that case, I asked her:’’ How do you feel?’’ She replied:’’ I think it ruined my hair style and my new shoes!’’ So, what can we say, then?

That was the funniest accident ever. But more than that, let’s take a look at another member of our group. Sreng Thida’s toe kept on bleeding. When we asked her, she said that she also didn’t know who had stepped on her toe when Visoth Thyda had the accident. Furthermore, Por Sean felt like vomiting because of riding on the swing.

If we count them all, there were already 6 incidents. So, finally we decided to return our school. As

we were leaving Soun Soben, Por Ing had another accident by hitting her toe on a stone. It’s really unbelievable but it’s a miracle. Nobody was seriously hurt.

Fortunately, we arrived at school safely without any accidents on the way. That was the end of our day, so what do you think IS IT U N F O R T U N A T E O R UNFORGETTABLE?

know anything about that. After a long time, he knew that the CIA and KGB was the name of the spies who worked for the US and Soviet governments. For food, they just gave him bowls of watery porridge. We asked “What was his advice for the next generation?” He said “I just want you to study hard because one of us could be the leader of the country someday”.

We arrived at Toul Sleng museum around at 9 a.m. on Saturday. We went there with Mr. Khiev phit, our civic teacher, Mr. Mustafa Ercan, our homeroom teacher and 19 students including me, oh! Our homeroom teacher and civic teacher told us a lot about the tools that the "Pol Pot" people used to punish the hostages. And we learned many other things as well. At that museum we were so scared because many people died there and we could see blood in some places. I couldn’t believe my eyes. What were they doing back then? Why were they so cruel? It was horrible. And we also went to see pictures of the hostages and the most cruel person I've ever heard about, ‘’Pol Pot’’. The soldiers of Pol Pot taught children how to kill their families. The hostages were cruelly punished by Pol Pot in gruesome ways. We saw a picture in a room; there were cuffs to hold the hostages’ legs. They removed the fingernails from the hostages and then they poured fish sauce on the hostages’ fingers. We left the room and then we saw a kind of sports place for the students to exercise. But the Pol Pot prison guards t ied rope on the hostage's hands and they put the ropes through a hole and lifted the hostages up to hang. They also used big water jars filled it with smelly water and bad stuff to torment the prisoners. We met a person that was one of the people that had survived The toul sleng prison. The escapees were seven people but four of them died after a long time because they were old. One of them's name is Mr. Chom Mei. He told us about life during that time too. His wife and his children died during that horrible time. He told us that the Pol Pot guards had a time to punish the hostages. In the morning, they started at 7 until 11 or 12 and in the afternoon, they tortured people from 1 to 5. In a book there it said the number of people who had died is 2 million people but when we asked him he said that about 4 million people had died from 1970 to 1979 and everywhere was full of corpses. The soldier asked the hostages “Were you a CIA agent or a KGB agent?” Mr. Chum Mei didn’t

After our interview with him, we gave him some money. We moved on to the next room from the room he was in. We saw pictures of the ghosts that the visitors took. So we moved on again and we could see the skulls of the hostages that were killed by the Pol Pot guards. After this, we went to the video room and watched a movie for 5 minutes about things we didn’t

know about Pol Pot. We went back to school at around 11:30. How could people do this for 3 years, 8 months and 20 days???

It was a nice sunny Saturday. Our homeroom teacher, Mrs. Grace L. Karaca, took us to Water Park for a day of fun. We planned to go there by ourselves so one of our friends, Nadeth, offered to take us there. First, we met at school then; we waited for Nadedh’s car to take us. Then we went to Pencil supermarket to buy some snacks. Mrs. Grace bought some juice, fizzy drinks, water, crackers and cake. We enjoyed that snack and some fried breads that Mrs. Grace made for us at home. There were twelve students who joined the activity. We were very excited when we arrived. We bought the tickets and went straight to find a place to leave our things. Then we went to change our clothes and rent a life preserver. First we were considering which place we should go. Then we all agreed to play the round water slide. Some of our friends didn’t have life preserver so we decided to connect one with life preserver and one without it. Then when we heard the bell rang we ran quickly toward and into the artificial (lake) ocean. We enjoyed that moment very much

needles. We wanted to go to the swimming pool but we just went to the water we sat on our life preserver and the water brought us around the swimming pool. We played until 2pm. We thought that all the swimming wasn’t enough so one of our friends invited us to her house. She took us to her house and brought some biscuits for us. We liked

that biscuit very much so we ate and ate. Then we went to the roof and listened to music. We talked about what we did at Water Park and we were all very happy. After some time we went home. It was an unforgettable day for us.

On 23rd of May at 8am we (7E) went to the Primary School with our homeroom teacher, Mrs. Grace. When we reached there we saw the school play ground, which made some of us want to play but we were too big to be allowed inside. After that we went inside the building and we saw the library but we didn’t go inside but we saw that there were lots of books inside. After we left the library we went to the first floor and we met Mrs. Guler Erken; she was very friendly and we also introduce ourselves to her in Turkish. We also met many teachers and assistant teachers. After that Mrs. Grace led us to the decorated wall with the map of Cambodia and Turkey. She also explained to us about Turkey which made us very interested in Turkey and would like to go there. We also went into some of the classrooms and we saw that each of the room was decorated with cultures of many countries and each of the room has a computer, an LCD TV, and an active board. And we also went to visit conference room. Although it was not very big, it looked very comfortable and each chair was

On Monday morning the 11 th of May we woke up at 6 o’clock and I called our friends to wake them up. At 7:00am some of us met up at Vuthy’s house and then we went to school in two cars. We gathered together at 7:30 and prepared to leave. We were Panha, Vuthy, Kuong, Oudom, Malin, Heng, Pheng, Khun, Sreng, Ek, Amrith, but we hadn’t seen our teachers yet. Around 8:00 am Mr.Ali and Mr.Alisher also showed up, so we divided the students into two cars. After that, the trip to KOH KONG began but first, we went to buy bread for our breakfast in the car. Around 10:00 am we reached “Pich Nil” then we went to “Yey Mao”. Then we continued our journey...After 2 hours we reached at the place at the third bridge to eat our lunch. After we finished our lunch we had durian for our desert, then we took some photos there. After that we went for a walk of around 2 kilometers then we were joined by the car which had come to take us on our

the jungle to find a lower waterfall but we couldn’t find it because the water was so strong so we went to another waterfall called “TA PON” waterfall. It was 3 o’clock in the afternoon by then and we stayed there 2 hours playing and swimming. After that we had a drink and then we went back to Vuthy’s Villa to have a shower and a bit of a rest. In the house we played “Wii” games

and some of our friends rested on the sofa. Then we met one our friends there. He had just arrived with his parents so he joined our trip. At 6 o’clock in the evening Vuthy’s mother called us to have dinner at her house. There we had fried oyster with egg, tom yam lobster and many other kinds of food. After we had dinner we went to the “KOH KONG Bridge”.

was Mr.Ali. When he got on the stage they didn’t have shoes for him so he didn’t wear any and when he got on the front stage the dolphin’s trainer wanted the dolphin to kiss his cheek but when the dolphin came near Mr.Ali turned his mouth and kissed the dolphin. The show finished at 11:30 and then we went by train to have lunch at “ the KOH KONG Resort Hotel” in front of the “KOH KONG Safari World”. We had the buffet and took some photos there then we went back to “KOH KONG Safari

This bridge is around 1.7 kilometers long. When we reached the end of the bridge we went to the “KOH KONG RESORT” and walked around a shop near there. Then we went back to Vuthy’s house. At 9o’clock we were very hungry so one of our friends went to buy us some food. The first night we couldn’t sleep because we were playing games and having a lot of fun….On the second day in the morning we were very sleepy because we didn’t sleep the night before we didn’t want to wake up. Then one of Vuthy’s men came to tell us that we would go to the “KOH KONG Safari World” today and the show would start at 9:30 so we hurried up and started to take our shower…. then we went to have breakfast and we arrived at the “KOH KONG Safari World” at 9:20. We bought tickets and went to see the show.The first show was “the Bird Show” and we enjoyed the show very much even though it was a bit hot there. Then the 2nd show was the “Crocodile Show”. This show was very creepy because they put their hands into the crocodile’s mouth. And not just their hands they also put their head in, too. Many people screamed because of that. The 3rd show was “the Dolphin Show”. This show was very special for us because when the show chose 3 people to be kissed by the dolphin one of them

When we got there we rented a boat to look around the “Mangrove Tree”. We spent around 1 hour looking around the Mangrove Jungle. We got back into the car and went to eat “Banhcheav” for our dinner. Then we went back home. In the evening Mr.Ali made the desert for us made

from cookies with chocolate and banana. While he made the desert, we played “hide and seek.” We were very happy and after we had the desert we played football in the yard until midnight. Then we felt sleepy and went to bed….The time had passed quickly and now it was the 3rd day and we felt a bit unhappy because tomorrow we would be going to Phnom Penh. So we tried to have a lot more fun. That day we would go to the “KOH KONG Coast” by boat.

After we finished playing football, I, along with some of our friends, went with the boat to go fishing and other friends, went to look for oysters on the rocks. We went far away from the island to go fishing and we caught 3 fish 1 was 5 kilos another 8 kilos 1 more was 10 kilos. Then we returned to the

Firstly we went to Vuthy’s mother houseand then we took 2 boats with Vuthy’s mother to get to an island. It took 1 hour to go to that “KOH KONG Coast” island. While we were traveling on the ocean we saw many beautiful islands and the sea was very beautiful. When we got on the island we brought our stuff to the beach and then we changed our clothes. After that we swam and played football under our new

island to have lunch there. At 3o’clock we went back to Vuthy’s Villa to have a hot shower and then we resumed playing games. That evening had dinner at a restaurant and then went back to the hotel to have a rest and prepare our luggage for departing...The 4th day had come and we woke up a bit late because that day we were going back back to Phnom Penh. We would really

miss KOH KONG and the happy times we spent together. Before we went back home we went to see Vuthy’s mother to say goodbye to her and say thanks for everything.Then we went back to Phnom Penh. On the way we listened to music and talked with each other until we arrived in Phnom Penh at 2 o’clock and all our families came to take us home. So the trip to KOH KONG ended…

take us to the island. While we were waiting for the boat, we played football and rode the banana. It was totally fantastic. We left the beach at 10 a.m. It took 45 minutes to go to the island. We saw starfish and other fish with their wonderful colors. Then we went to another island. There we could easily do some fishing and swim in the sea. At 2 p.m, we returned to the beach. As soon as we arrived, we felt very hungry because we hadn't eaten lunch yet, so we bought Cambodian sweets for our lunch instead. It was very delicious. After we finished it, our friends went to hotel with Mr.Murat to take showers and have some rest. But me, Bunlong and Mr.Emis didn’t go with them. We had to stay at the beach because we didn’t want to bring all our stuff back and also we didn’t want to pay for the table again. Around 6 p.m. our friends came; then they started the fire and barbecued the chicken and seafood. We gave the cook the fish that we had caught near the island in order for him to cook soup for us . After that, we played with fireworks for half an hour. We returned to the hotel at 11 p.m. We started to play computer

A week before the great holiday for King Norodom Sihakmony’s b i r t h d a y a n d t h e R o y a l Ploughing ceremony we had made a request for a field trip that we wanted to have to Preah Sihanouk Province to our homeroom teacher. On 6th May, our homeroom agreed with us to go there on Thursday 14th May. Then our friends booked the hotel and rented a bus which had 25 seats. There were 11 students with Mr. Murat our homeroom teacher, and Mr. Emis, the science teacher at Zaman Kindergarten School.The time flew quickly; we met at ZIS around 6 a.m. in the early morning. We planned to leave at 6:30 but one of our friends was late because he confused the date so we had to wait for him for half an hour. We left the school around 7:00 a.m. Then we went to pick up Mr.Emis at Zaman Kindergarten School. After that we stopped at a food mart to buy some drinks and snacks, and again at the Bayon bakery to buy some bread for our breakfast. We ate breakfast in the bus; it consisted of the hotdogs that Mr. Murat’s wife had prepared for us with bread. On the way, we didn’t forget to stop at Pich Nil because we wanted to have rest and to pray for our safety and to ward off bad problems. When we arrived in Srer Ombel we stopped there for few minutes and we bought 10 kg of rambutans. In the bus, Bunlong ordered enough seafood for 3 days, while Davath was ordering a place to stay at the beach. We arrived there at 1 p.m. and had lunch at the beach. After lunch we played football and swam but we didn’t forget to take photos also. At 4 p.m. we went to the hotel. Then some of us went to get the seafood and buy drinks, while the others were resting in the room or swimming in the pool. At 7 p.m., we went to O Cher Teal beach and barbequed seafood for our dinner. At 10 p.m. it was time to go back to the hotel but we couldn’t sleep that night because we were all playing a game called War Craft together.Second day, we had breakfast together at 7:30 a.m. Then we went to O Cher Teal beach again, rented a table and also a boat to

games again, but this night we could sleep because we were all very tired.The final day had come. We ate breakfast at 8 a.m. then went back to our rooms to prepare our luggage for going back to Phnom Penh. We checked out at 10:30p.m. We had lunch at Pich Nil. We gave seafood to the restaurant to cook for us. There was a lot of food prepared in different styles. Afterwards, all of us were very full; we spent 2

hours for lunch because we wanted to finish it all. We left Pich Nil around 2:30 p.m. On the way back, we sang songs and watched movies together. Finally, we arrived at ZIS at 5 p.m. The field trip had ended.Last but not least, We would like to say thank you to Mr. Murat and Mr.Emis for the wonderful field trip and we hope to have a great trip like this again next year.

parents. The next program was called Khmer poem was written by Mr.Rany and was read by Seak. The poem was about hard work and believing in the advice our parents give to us. Then it was time for Khmer song which was sung by Davud and Roza. The name of the song was Akara Derng Kun. That was followed by the English song called When You Look Me In the Eye which was sung by Socichea and Sovite. The next show was a competition called Open the Present. This competition required people to open 3 gifts that were covered by 10 layers of paper gift wrapping. When the song starts you must tear off the wrapping as quickly as you can but when the song stops we should stop too. Then it was time

On 14th May 2009, it was our special day. It was called Parents Day. We presented this day to our parents because we wanted to thank them for taking care of us. The day before the first thing we had done was to decorate the stage at 3:30 p.m. At 5 p.m., our football team had a friendly match with the teacher’s team, but some of us stayed in the conference hall to do the decorations until 9 p.m. at night. On the day of the performance we came to school at 7 a.m. to do more decorating and practice. The program started at 10 a.m. The 1st show was called National anthems; we wore our white t-shirts which had our pictures on it. Then our teacher gave his speech to all the

to sing another Khmer song called Tek Chet Koun Peal. That was sung by Sovan and Dyna. It was very amazing. The next song was an English song that was sung by Udomsak and title was I miss you like crazy. After tha t , the re was ano ther competition. This one was called Lucky Draw. After it finished, it was time for our special show, a sketch. It was a sketch with a moral. The meaning of it was “Stay away from drugs and just focus on study”. Then it was followed by a khmer song that was written by Phara and Seak, its title was Deung Kun. The next program turned to be a very sad and happy moment for all of us who have been studying together since grade 8. It was the slide show which had been

prepared by Dyna. It included our baby pictures too. It was amazing and very meaningful for us. When we finished the slide show, we came to our last program, our songs that we sang together. The 1st one was a Turkish song which was called Ay yüzlüm and the 2nd one was Mit Pheak Slap Rous. While we were singing the songs, our teacher gave us roses to give to our parents. The show finished at 11:50 a.m. and the we had lunch together with our parents. Lastly, we took pictures of us all together and with our families. It was the best day ever for us and very special and it was the 1st time for our class also.

On Saturday morning, we were ready in school garden w a i t i n g f o r o u r t e a c h e r impatiently. When our teacher arrived at school we immediately began to talk to her about our plans there. Upon seeing the great excitement of us, our

Reading is of such great joy for us that we usually go to the bookshops to look for different kinds of story and activity books whenever we have free time. As our teacher knows about it, she suggested taking us to Peace Book Center that time. Wow! That was a great idea. We were going to a bookshop and we were going to go there with our

teacher suggested leaving the school instantly. Soon we were there. Wow! What an awesome place it was with all those colorful, amazing, variety of books and stationery. We went around the bookshop for two hours without any rush and bought as many books and much stationery as we wished. It was very enjoyable and to tell the truth, i t was much more

enjoyable for each of us to have shopping with our classmates than shopping with our parents. (It is strongly recommended not to let your parents read this part:) It was really great fun there and now it was time to go home. Hurry up everyone! Now you have many new and amazing books to read at the weekend...

and an impossible feat. Yet, I dare say that I have been lucky. You see, on a daily basis – I am close to being ‘transported’ back to time by being with the wonderful kids I have the privilege of teaching. Be it the lesson t ime, break t ime, swimming time, activities time – I get a chance to immerse myself back to the innocence of children, thrills, joy, and the guiltless fun they are capable of

I think school days are the best days of a person’s life. Wouldn’t you agree? I think that’s the only time in one’s life that he/she is able to totally and completely have fun – pure fun without having any guilt whatsoever of impending responsibilities or commitments. I truly wish I could go back to being a child again! In as much as I wish I could turn back the hands of the clock – I know it is only wishful thinking

treating themselves to. At their age – they aren’t truly capable of understanding the concepts of limitations, other impending duties nor tiredness. Boundless energy, fun and squeals of laughter are the order of the day, in fact of every day!In keeping up with that kind of energy and to ensure that it is geared towards the right kind of activities, the teachers at Zaman Primary plan weekly entertain- ments to keep them in check. Since the start of the academic year, I have planned several weekly get-togethers with the students. This ranged from field trips to several destinations, splashing fun time at the swimming pool, intellectual games on the computer, movie treats and much much more. The last event saw the students coming together for the joy of being together in doing simple things i.e to talk, to play jump ropes, play ‘sey’ and board games. And the thing about children – nothing is too simple to conjure it up into an intense and exciting fun play time. And as the days are drawing close for the

academic year to end – I see a special bonding amongst the students. They are ensuring, like an unspoken code of conduct, to spend every minute of their break time to effectively have fun and laughter with their friends before they break off for the summer holidays. Looking at them, I can’t help but be reminded of all those times I was up to mischief and felt that as a child, fun was my entitlement – pure and simple.As the end of school term draws near, I will certainly miss the moments I had shared with the children and will cherish the invaluable lesson they taught me in return – guiltless fun!Sheela Naidu - 4C

When we’re inside it was like we’re really in America except that there were two big flags of America and Cambodia facing each other that awakens our senses.We were also brought around its Americanised-cubicle offices with maximum silence so as not to disturb the staff working.

Our first embassy visit.On our way, there’s this yell, “Yehey! We’re going to America!”And definitely yes, we’re going to an American embassy.Twenty-eight of them were very excited to get in the compound. While 5 by 5 are called, checked and organized to lined up inside, the rest have no choice but to wait for the strict and careful entrance.As we are all settled in, Mr. John Johnson, the embassy Public Affairs Officer welcomed us. He started touring us from the outside, then, inside the highly metallised and secured building, to its library where kids were allowed to use internet for minutes. Then we moved on leading to its prominently

The weather and environment seem united in giving us a bright and sunny morning with only us from Zaman taking advantage of the relaxing place.It was tempting to join the kids sliding and swimming but to watch them was my first prerogative. I would like to acknowledge Sivota, Chhun, Uy, Sokleap and Hong for their generosity and initiative of bringing extra drinks, chips, mangoes and cups that gave everybody the reason to come out of water and have a sip whenever they’re thirsty or a bite whenever they see the mouth watering mangoes and chips. When I first uttered the word “Pack Up” they all replied with,

To lead my students with good hygiene training and application was immensely worth it. Seeing them sweeping the litters on the corners and back of cupboards, wiping desks and cupboards, climbing on the ladder to clean the ceiling fans, arranging things under their desks and mopping
