On 3-12-2010, Samdech Preah Mohessara NORODOM Chakrapong and the Samdech Norodom Racvivong Foundation’s team undertook yet another trip to Ta Keo province in order to bring support to Ang Saath primary school.
Ang Saath primary school is the 8th school located in Ta Keo province to receive support from the Samdech Norodom Racvivong Foundation which, as a result, has become increasingly known and appreciated in the area. Thus upon arriving in the school, Samdech Preah Mohessara and his team were warmly welcome by the students, the teachers and the director.
On the occasion of this visit, Samdech Preah Mohessara handed a total of 440 text books to Ang Saath primary school, including: 120 Khmer text books and 120 Mathematics text books covering all 6 year of the primary cycle; 80 manuals of social sciences and 80 manuals of applied sciences covering the last 3 years of the primary cycle; 20 manuals of social and applied sciences for Primary Year 1 and 20 more for Primary Year 2.
During the usual handover ceremony organized by the director and the teachers, the President of the Samdech Norodom Racvivong Foundation personally distributed the textbooks to the school’s pupils who were overjoyed by this unexpected opportunity to have their own book for the year. Too often indeed, rural schools one textbook has to be shared amongst 4 or 5 students, a major cause of school failure amongst the youth.
After the ceremony, the director of Ang Saath primary school invited the Foundation’s team to visit the school’s premises, especially the vegetable garden for which Samdech Preah Mohessara promised to look for possible further support, in a way similar to what he has done for other schools in the province.
Before leaving to return to Phnom Penh, Samdech Preah Mohessara NORODOM Chakrapong and his team participated in the traditional photography session and promised their host they would do their best to come back as soon as possible.
Le 3-12-2010, Samdech Preah Mohessara NORODOM Chakrapong et l’équipe de la Fondation Samdech Norodom Racvivong ont effectué un nouveau déplacement dans la province de Ta Keo pour y apporter leur soutien à l’école primaire Ang Saath.
L’école primaire Ang Saath est le huitième établissement de la province de Ta Keo à bénéficier de l’appui de la Fondation Samdech Norodom Racvivong, désormais bien connue et très appréciée dans la région. Ainsi Samdech Preah Mohessara et son équipe ont-ils été chaleureusement accueillis à leur arrivée, tant par les élèves que par les enseignants et le directeur de l’établissement.
C’est un total de 440 manuels scolaires que Samdech Preah Mohessara a cette fois offert à l’école primaire Ang Saath, soit 120 manuels de Khmer et 120 manuels de Mathématiques couvrant les 6 années du cycle primaire ; 80 manuels de sciences sociales et 80 manuels de sciences appliquées couvrant les 3 dernières années du cycle primaire ; 20 manuels de sciences sociales et appliquées de 2ème année du cycle primaire et 20 autres de deuxième année.
Au cours de la désormais traditionnelle cérémonie organisée à cet effet par le directeur et le corps enseignant, le Président de la Fondation Samdech Norodom Racvivong a personnellement remis les manuels aux élèves heureux de la chance inespérée qui leur a ainsi été offerte d’avoir chacun leur manuel. Trop souvent en effet, les écoles rurales ne disposent que d’un manuel pour 4 ou 5 élèves, ce qui constitue un facteur déterminant du taux d’échec scolaire.
A l’issue de la cérémonie de distribution, le directeur de l’école primaire Ang Saath a fait visiter l’établissement à l’équipe de la Fondation, en particulier le jardin potager pour lequel Samdech Preah Mohessara a promis d’étudier la possibilité d’une aide supplémentaire, du même type que celle accordée aux jardins potagers des autres écoles de la province.
Achevant leur visite par l’inévitable photo souvenir, Samdech Preah Mohessara NORODOM Chakrapong et son équipe ont enfin repris le chemin de la capitale, non sans promettre à leurs hôtes de revenir dès que possible.

There, in the presence of some of the school’s pupils, Mr. Nhem Sambath Sokha handed to the teachers and director of the school the whole gardening tools set, including: 6 spades and their removable handles, 6 shovels, 6 hoes, 2 axes and 2 cleavers. Thanks to this brand new equipment, the teachers and students will be able to better maintain their vegetable garden, for which Mr. Nhem Sambath Sokha also donated a pack of seeds.
Aware of the usefulness of such donations, which answered their own request, the teachers but also parents of the school’s pupils expressed their very deep gratitude to the Samdech Norodom Racvivong Foundation and to its President, Samdech Preah Mohessara NORODOM Chakrapong.
En présence d’élèves de l’école primaire, Monsieur Nhem Sambath Sokha a ainsi remis au corps enseignant et au directeur de l’école un set complet d’outils comprenant : 6 houes et leurs manches amovibles ; 6 pelles ; 6 bêches ; 2 haches et 2 couperets. Grâce à ce matériel neuf, les enseignants et élèves pourront mieux entretenir les cultures du jardin potager de l’école pour lequel Monsieur Nhem Sambath Sokha a en outre remis des graines.
Conscients de l’utilité de ces dons, qui répondait à une demande formulée par eux, les enseignants mais aussi les parents des élèves de l’école primaire Kbal O ont exprimé leur très profonde reconnaissance à la Fondation Samdech Norodom Racvivong et à son Président, Samdech Preah Mohessara NORODOM Chakrapong
