Cambodian School Days

This little guy at the Sunrise Childrens' Village Orphanage in Siem Reap is trying to get a little assistance during his school lesson from the girl sitting next to him. Or perhaps he is using this as an excuse to get to know her .... who knows.

Orphanages such as the Sunrise Childrens' Village Orphanage do some tremendous work in this country offering a safe and comfortable environment and one in which the children can get lessons in maths, english, Khmer, arts, music, dancing and computer studies as well as good meals avery day and a bed to sleep in.

Afternoon Nap

Young kids and older folks need their afternoon nap. These two kids at an orphanage in Siem Reap, Cambodia take the opportunity to drop out of class for a while for their much needed afternoon nap. No need to bother heading off to their bed when they can just lay out on the desk and catch their forty winks!

School Lessons in Cambodia

The look of concentration can be clearly seen on this girl's face as she sits in a school class at her orphanage in Siem Reap. This is actually the same little girl that was in the photograph in my earlier blog this week entitled Joy & Happiness .... she is obviously not quite so joyous or happy about this classroom lesson compared the the dance class!!

Happy School Days

School Lessons in Siem Reap Cambodia by HighlanderImages

They say that school days are the happiest of your life .... no idea who said this and why! However these young Cambodian kids  in Siem Reap seem to be enjoying their lessons although distracted by the large, strange looking, white fella taking photographs through the school window. If I had tried this in UK I would be arrested immediately for sure.
