Last week, the student council organized our lower school and high school honor roll assemblies.

The lower school assembly began with a presentation to Sreynich, Grade 6, for winning the senior section of the Cambodia Primary School Art Contest with her poster titled, ‘Our planet needs us.’

Next, Grades 2 and 4 gave spirited musical performances. Grade 2 had everyone clapping along as they used rhythm sticks to play the song, ‘Sarasponda.’ Grade 4 who have been learning to play the recorder performed the songs, ‘Mary Had a Little Lamb’ and ‘On the March.’ Finally, students from Grades 1, 2 and 3 gave a short presentation, written by Grade 2, describing how we can show compassion, which is our chosen character trait for this quarter. Then it was time to celebrate academic achievement with the presentation of honor roll certificates. Special congratulations go to Sina, Grade 1 and Kannika, Grade 2 for reaching the Straight A honor roll.

The next day, it was the high school honor roll assembly. Sengly ’23 spoke eloquently about facing her fears when public speaking, while Ellen ’22 shared her experiences and thoughts about the negative impact of bullying and ways to combat it.

Thanks to the student council for organizing these very well-run assemblies and congratulations to all the students on the honor roll.
