This week
Hey,
Another week is passing by and I can feel that I have adjusted well to my new routines. As mentioned, I have switched my routines this week since I am covering a bit for Sabine at The Goodwill School meaning I am there in the morning instead of the afternoon. Must say this suits me quite well actually and keeps the rest of the day more open. Should continue like this even when Sabine is back!
I am enjoying the daily meetings and it is interesting to take part in what happens at the school regularly. The number of children are shifting and this week it has been between 27 and 47 children at the same time.
There are a few children who has problems with reading and writing Khmer and therefore some extra focus is set on them to help them improve their skills. Unfortunately do the children sometimes need to help so much at home that they don't go to public school and therefore have this kind of problem. It is an important issue for The Goodwill School to identify these children and try help them. First to help them and the parents to understand how important the public school really is and then to help the children to catch up what they have missed.
Regarding the Khmer language am I not satisfied with myself. I must getting started to learn the language much better.
Apart from the school, the week has been quiet. A few friends and I were up at the local brewery, Angkor, Wednesday afternoon and had a look. There are a few pictures from there below along with some pictures of Sihanoukville as well as some from The Goodwill School.
Have a nice weekend everyone, I will do my best to have the same here!
