Students in Koh Ker are moving to Srayang for Secondary SchoolThis year’s graduation at Koh Ker Primary School will be a momentous time.  This year, six girls will be finishing the sixth grade.  Of these six, five of them plan to continue on to secondary school in the town of Srayang, approximately 20 km from Koh Ker Village.  In addition to these six, there are four fifth grade students who have been deemed ready to take the sixth grade exam as well.
 
These nine girls will be joining two other students who are currently living with host families in Srayang next school year.  However, rather than living with host families, PLF has decided to provide a home for these students in a group house located just behind the secondary school.

Tchey who are seeking their Pedegogy or University education to become better teachers, but can’t afford the costs of higher education

The PLF is hoping to fund these teachers' higher education as an investment in giving the students at Tchey school a better education.

Then they could, instead of me, help the other children who will come after them.
