📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Preysen Primary School is located in Prey Sen Village, Thebdey Commune, Koh Krolor District, Battambang Province which is about 70 kilometers away from the city of Battambang. It’s a small village with no electricity and stable running water available. The villagers use the sola panel, recharged battery and personal generator for the night . The primary school is home to 87 children from the village who everyday attend the school, except on Sunday. There are 6 teachers, in which 3 of the teachers 2 males, and 2 females are fully government staff and 3 other females are contracted teachers. The school teaching operation is done for both morning and afternoon, and besides, there is a food security program for the children in the morning session in which the school is responsible for cooking the breakfast for the students everyday under the support from WFP World Food Program. The typical breakfast for the students are watered-rice and canned fish but cooked in different dishes. The majority of the families are hired-farmers and their jobs are commonly shift from working on their fields and on the other people’s fields to earn extra money. For the whole year round, they collect rise, corns, gasava, bananas, and their children start to work in young age; therefore, the daily routine of going to school is not very practically performed.
