Girls, O'embel High School (Grade 11)

It was incredible this year to see the joy on the six girls faces as they passed their final Grade 10 exams and made it into their last years of high school. This year, five of the girls will attend Grade 11 and one girl will be in her final year of Grade 12. The end of high school is close now and they are already turning their sights to want they want to do after school.

Each of the girls is the first person in their family who has received an education. They all come from very disadvantaged backgrounds and grew up in a remote slum village where there is no electricity or clean water available.

Today, the girls stand confidently to present themselves at school and because of your generous continiung donations their dreams of finishing high school and changing their lives is coming true.

A message from one of the girls, "My name is Pov Theara, I am super delighted to finish Grade 10 successfully for the year of 2023. I am looking forward to attending Grade 11 soon. Furthermore, I would love to say thank you so much to Well Directed and supporters for supporting me from the beginning until now. I will study hard to complete Grade 11 for this upcoming new school year. You support means a lot to me and my family. In the future, I want to be a teacher".
