Update from Team Cambodia 🇰🇭
The first week of workshops was a challenge that the students rose to fantastically - they were completely our of their comfort zones but got stuck in straight away and loved it!
One of the students, Kai, celebrated his 17th birthday on Tuesday with a Cambodian macha birthday cake!
The team had the chance to take part in a cultural exchange with some student monks at a local university on Thursday afternoon where they talked about their practices and the differences in our cultures.

Smiles to brighten a rainy day! Our Foundation Learning students braved the rain this morning to have a photo taken in the outdoor space. Why? They would love for us to create a designated outside area for them to spend time together, eat lunch or just relax in the fresh air. At QMC they currently enjoy a safe and inclusive environment during lessons, where they flourish and develop as young people with special educational needs. To achieve our ambitious dream of creating an outdoor space, to further support their social development, we need your help.
The students are busy organising lots of #fundraising initiatives - watch this space! In the meantime please support our fundraising efforts by sharing this post and donating to our project if you can. It will mean the world to the students to have a space they can enjoy. Link is in the bio 👆Thank you!
