On the 8th of June 2017 at 6.30, Ms. Phon Sonai, our program manager led twenty-five teachers and staff of Xavier Jesuit School to travel on a hired bus to Phnom Penh for the annual staff outing. Throughout the long bus journey, the teachers and staff, sang, danced, played games and made a lot of noise. In the afternoon, the group visited the Jesuit Centre, Banteay Prieb, the vocational training centre for mentally and physically challenged youth. After dinner in a large restaurant, the group stayed at the Pastoral Centre of the Phnom Penh Vicariate. The next morning, on Friday the 9th of June, the group visited the National Museum to understand the early history of Cambodian art forms. As it was a Buddhist sacred day, the Royal Palace was closed early in the morning so that the King could attend to his religious duties. After lunch, the staff visited the Tuol Slaeng, S21, Khmer Rouge museum which shocked our younger teachers by the barbaric cruelty and inhumanity towards innocent people that it still represents. Then the staff had time for shopping at the new Aeon Mall before dinner and a visit to Koh Pich resort. On the return journey to Banteay Meanchey Province on the 10th of June, the group also visited the Oudong temple site. For our old guard, Mr. Sok, it was his first visit to his capital city even though he had spent ten years working in Thailand.
