The Goducate Children’s Home in Prey Nob, Cambodia admitted 14 new children a few months ago, and immediately started them on the Learning To Read ABCs program. For many of these kids, it was the first time they had a chance to learn to read and write, and within a few months, many of these little ones graduated from this program with flying colors.
The new school semester will begin in September, and a week ago, the Children’s Home welcomed a new full-time teacher, Evangeline, into their midst. In three weeks time, a Filipino couple trained in education will visit and survey the Home with the aim of committing to a long term stay when the semester starts.
These new teachers together with volunteer and short-term teachers will be a great asset to the Goducate Children’s Home. They will not only care for the children’s academic needs, but will also take on the responsibilities of house-parents, becoming “mother” and “father” figures to these children.
