| On herself:
|
There are three boys and six girls in my family. Five of us go and study at the new school. My parents are both farmers, but my mother also sells food and fish at a small kitchen behind the school. Our house is just behind the school.
|
| On the new building:
|
I am very happy that we have a new school building, because the concrete building is cool during the day. I have only studied here for one month since the new school opened. I never went to other schools because they are too far away.
|
| On her summer vacation:
|
When school’s finished, I will help my parents cut the grass around our house and take care of my four younger siblings.
|
| In the future:
|
I want to be a farmer so that I can earn money.
|
| If she could make any one wish:
|
I would wish for books and pens. I don’t have any yet.
|
| If she could travel anywhere | I want to visit Phnom Penh.
