Cambodian After-School Learning Program
So come along and bring your homework!!
Project: “After School Learning"
This project was set up by three of our Trustees who are well qualified for the task.
Having seen the children in our Trust in need of extra help with reading and homework, along with many issues concerning their well being needing to be addressed, we set up this project called “Family Learning”.
It is on Tuesday from 7pm to 8:30pm. at 91 Cambridge Tce, Papatoetoe, Auckland
We have two to four volunteers for each session with many guests coming as role models.

Programme Outline
This programme is designed to offer practical learning support of English language and or English language related skills that will help each learner to achieve in his/her goal(s) in their life in the mainstream society. It also aims to create fellowship amongst the Cambodian young people through the learning of Khmer cultural dancing and arts.
