Hi parents,

We are safe and sound in Cambodia and had a pleasant flight with SilkAir. After we checked into ParkLane Hotel, we discovered that the hotel was far better than expected because the staff were friendly and helpful and the facilities were decent. At night, we had buffet dinner and some of us served the dinner. Some even had 2-3 serving!! We also went shopping and ate ice-cream! There was a discussion held among our group to bring us back to the objective of the trip.

Now we are logging off… more to come soon!!!  Good nights!

The students had been busying preparing and raising funds for the Cambodians.
Here are some pictures of the process(:

Our sale of can drinks is a big success!

Training Session
After school, all of us were to stay back to update the teachers on our progress in planning games for the Cambodia children. We, ourselves, certainly enjoyed the time as well!












We were able to play the games too!















We had fun!















Demostration of games. We sure had a big laugh.





































After sharing our ideas, we broke down into our groups and further improve on the ideas with feedback from the rest.
We even have a puppet show!












The props are indeed well prepared.












On top of all the fun, we get seriously when it comes to real work.










Some of us arranged the books that are meant to be brought over to Cambodia for the children there



And of course, teachers' suggestion and feedback are important in the preparation process


Story Telling!
