Since Camp Week is a large part of the culture at HOPE, we have created new videos to be able to show what Camp Week looks like at all levels. This year we traveled to Grade 9/10, and 11 Camps, and next year we will be at Middle School and Primary Camps.

Upcoming Dates to Remember:

3-14 April Khmer New Year Holiday

21 April Art Exhibition & Music Recital (details below)

Artist Foo Kwee Horng

Grade 9 Art students had a seminar with special guest artist, Foo Kwee Horng, from Singapore. His work is mainly in watercolors and oils with subject matter that ranges from portraits and figures, to cityscapes and still lifes. Foo spent time teaching our students techniques, and then they got to practice with their own portraits!

Donations to HOPE

A group from We The Redeemed church in California, USA visited Cambodia on a vision trip and donated sports equipment and art supplies. One of the members of the group, David, is a former student of Dr. Ecklund at Baylor.
