Welcome to Seametrey!
" A school where rich and poor children work together"
Seametrey Children’s Village offers a fully integrated bilingual nursery education and day care to children aged 1 to 6, since September 2007, Seametrey Children’s Village has expanded to include a Khmer-English primary section. Children are accepted on a first come first served basis. The aim of the school is to make quality education accessible to all Khmer children.
Today, Seametrey is proud to welcome 91 children from 8 month old to 23 years old of which more than half come from economically deprived family.
Social and cultural integration is the school policy. Students come from three different backgrounds and parents pay according to their income:
- Expatriate parents pay full fees comparable to some international schools in Phnom Penh
- Khmer middle class parents pay 50% of the school fees
- Economically deprived families contribute what they can, in cash, in kind, or barter their service.
