Programme Details
You will spend your mornings teaching at a local Pagoda (temple)school
and your afternoons teaching at the Floating school.
The Pagoda (temple school is close to your accommodation.
There are around 20 children that attend the Pagoda school aged between 6
and 12 years old.
The floating school is located in the floating
village of Chung Kneas and boasts a population of approximately 5,000
people. The school floats on the Tonle Sap River, moving up and down
depending on the season (the rainy season runs from May to August.) Built
in 2003 the school has three buildings that float independently, two are
classrooms and teachers’ office, and the other is for sport and
recreation. There are currently 86 students, with 5 teachers. This means
that the teacher’s time can be stretched and that not all children
receive the attention they deserve.
Your Role
As a volunteer you will be giving essential support to the teachers that
really need your help. You will be responsible for organising and taking
your own class. The activities that you will running will depend on the
needs of the children and the classes at the time (so please be flexible); however they may
