DESCRIPTION
Sunrise Children's Village Newsletter from July - September 2013
Citation preview
September was a time
where I had lunch in Ade-
laide with the girls in the
office: Gaynor, Chrissy,
Sue, Lou, Marie and an-
other Sue and we were
joined by Richard Fennell
our new treasurer so he
could get to know the girls
better. I drove to the Cen-tral Coast Grammar
School in Gosford where I
gave 4 presentations in
one day and took the op-
portunity to thank teach-
ers and the host families
who were giving our 5
students a real taste of
family life.
Sue Liu, good friend and
great sponsor, arranged
two cookouts in the Jew-
ish Our Big Kitchen where
we all cooked food for the
homeless. A really enjoy-
able day doing something
different for the Sunrise
students who found the
whole experience very
rewarding (see page 7).
I met our friends at Mac-
quarie Bank in Sydney to
discuss arrangements for
their Roaring Twenties
Ball on 26th October,
which I hope some of you
can attend. The five Sun-
rise students and I were
able to have a meeting
with the board and staff of
Austbrokers who have
financed their fares to
come each year for some
Go and get a large tea, coffee
or something stronger and sit
down to read this rather long
Newsletter. Our staff in Cambo-
dia have done such a great job
over the last 3 months, we did
not want to leave anything out…
July was important as I went to
the Ministry of Social Affairs with Soksan to sign the Memo-
randum of Understanding for
Sunrise Three. We are lucky to
have a special relationship with
the Ministry. Our annual trip to
the beach was mammoth this
year with all children from 3
Sunrise Villages attending with
loads of staff to take care of
them. The photo below shows
what a great time we all had
(more on page 5) but I needed
a very long sleep when I got
home!
I spent some time in Bangkok
having a series of health tests
which reveal I am good for the
next year. At the end of the
month I was in Adelaide for an
Australia Cambodia Foundation
Board Meeting which lasted the
whole day.
August was the Humanitarian
Affairs UK Symposium in Ma-
nila, where students from all
over the world network for a week on how to use their Uni-
versity Degrees to make life a
better place back in their home
countries. I have been a key-
note speaker at these Symposi-
ums now for 4 years and find
the experience very uplifting. I
lived in Manila in the seventies
when I worked at our Embassy
there and did not recognize the
city at all!
Later in the month I was in
Melbourne speaking at the
Russell Kennedy Women’s
Network, at private fund-
raisers arranged by friends
in Victoria and also took
the opportunity to meet
with our friends at Com-
putershare. Always a pleasant experience.
Back in Cambodia, I hosted
a lunch for the principal
and teachers at the Sun-
rise One Sovannaphumi
School to ensure their con-
tinued good service for our
children. On August 21st
we held our Memorial Day
for all departed Sunrise
children. Although a sad
day, it is important that
the children do not forget
their brothers and sisters
who have died. Brenton
Whittaker from BaliKids
came for a few special
days and the older stu-
dents in our Outreach
Houses were so happy to
see him again.
I flew to Ade-
laide with
Soeun Siev
Heang who
was not able
to go earlier
with the other
Sunrise stu-
dents to the
Central Coast
G r a m m a r
School Study
Tour and also
had Narith Horm on the same flight, who was at-
tending his graduation
from the Cordon Bleu In-
ternational Hotel Training
College and the event was
a formal black tie dinner at
the Adelaide Convention
Centre. We are all so proud
of him and he flew back
the next day to return to
his job in Phnom Penh.

The E-Library has attracted
at least 30 children daily
into the library to practice
their listening, search the
internet to prepare their
homework and assignments
for Khmer and English les-
sons, reading books etc.
TV has been connected to the cable network so now
the children can watch ABC
Australia Network, CNN,
BBC, Cartoon Network, Dis-
covery, WildLife, Animal
Planet, National Geographic,
Channel News Asia etc.
They also enjoy many good
DVDs of English documenta-
ries on animals, environ-
ment conservation, history
and other educational Eng-
lish programs organized by
our Librarian.
When Sue and Trevor Town-
send visited earlier this year
(for the past 3 years, Sue
has been our dedicated sup-
port to the students study-
ing in Adelaide), a fruitful
discussion ensued on the
possibility of establishing an
E-Library.
A few months later, Sue and
Trevor were able to confirm
the project could be com-
menced with funds from a
very kind sponsor, the
"Brighton Jetty Guys" of
Adelaide. With their dona-
tion, we have been able to
set up a smart board wall to
separate the studio from the
reading area and it now has
chairs, headphones, TV,
DVD player and amplifier.
Khmer General Education Opening Ceremony, Academic Year 2013-14
On September 2nd, an official opening of the 2013-2014 school year was held at Sovannaphumi School where our Sunrise One chil-
dren attend. Full scholarships for 13 years of education were awarded for 20 of our Sunrise students, courtesy of Prime Minister Hun
Sen. The school also presented scholarships (with values of 15% to 50% of annual education costs), letters of appreciation and gifts
to students who achieved from 1st to 5th
place in their annual results of the
2012/2013 academic year. 27 of our
students from grade 2 to grade 11 re-
ceived awards.
At the school’s request, a group of chil-dren from Khmer traditional dance and
music classes performed in the opening
ceremony. There were 7 Khmer tradi-
tional dances. Their performance was an
indicator of our positive achievements in
contributing to the conservation of
Khmer traditional cultures and Sunrise
has become well-known for serving the
best interest of all children.
Education is considered a privi-
leged program for Sunrise Chil-
dren’s Villages. In 2013, we have
made much meaningful progress
in respect to both attendances
and results of the children’s Eng-
lish, computer skill training and
Khmer general education.
There is no doubt that the library
has hugely and meaningfully con-
tributed to the Education pro-
gram. Now this has been consid-
erably enhanced by the inclusion
of our E-Library to further de-
velop reading and listening skills.

Deepest heartfelt thanks to our
kind sponsors, the "Brighton
Jetty Guys" and others who
have donated specifically to this
project through our new web-
site.
We plan to equip more updated
books in both Khmer and Eng-
lish, not only for our Sunrise
children but also the children
living in surrounding communi-
ties.
years now. We are building a
lasting relationship with Aust-
brokers and are very grateful to
them, especially as they have
also committed to financing the
travel costs for 2014.
I spoke at the Executive Assis-
tant’s Breakfast Session in Syd-
ney and made some new con-
tacts and signed up sponsors. I
did several radio interviews and
one with a journalist from the
Sydney Morning Herald who is
coming to Cambodia to write
about orphanages. I flew to
Perth to speak at the Zonta 12th
Biennial District 23 Conference in Scarborough and met an
amazing lot of strong women all
working for their communities. I
have to admit I felt the cold and
longed for sunny Cambodia.
I addressed the school as-
sembly of Mercy College in
Perth, where children are
raising money for us by
putting change in a tin from
their lunch money and doing
cake sales. What a giving lot
of children they are. I did a
public lecture at the Man-
ning Library in West Perth,
where I was thrilled to have
some Sunrise sponsors turn
up. The women from the
Helping Hands Foundation,
who have been visiting and
raising money for us for
years, had a dinner for me and presented me with a
cheque for $5,000 which
brought tears to my eyes.
They are regular visitors to
Sunrise.
I did 6 radio interviews in Perth
and was also a guest on Chan-
nel Ten’s ‘The Project’, which I
hope will bring us many more
needed sponsors. Finally, at
the end of the month, I flew to
Canberra to give a public lec-
ture at the Australian National
University’s Gender Institute
and had friends host wonderful
fundraisers for me in the ACT.
Through all these events and
fundraisers, I know that many
more people are now donating
to Sunrise and this encourages
me to continue doing what I do
to raise awareness of our
needs. I must thank many wonderful friends who wel-
comed me in their homes while
I was traveling and made life
so much easier for me – David
Cossey, Jim and Yana Glaros,
Tahli Shepherd and her husband
Justin, Pat Blamey, Simone and
Nick Heydon, Dawn Booth, Bar-
bara Zuegg and John and Jan
Munro. I was able to see many
friends and sponsors and my
sisters and nieces and although
it was a gruelling travel pro-
gram, I enjoyed every minute of
it and never forget how vital
each and every sponsor is to me
and the Sunrise children.
I will spend a couple of weeks in
Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait and
Doha in October and let’s hope I
can report good news about my
fundraising time there in the
next newsletter. Love and light, Geraldine Cox AM,
Country Director and President “There's a crack in everything -That's how the light gets in…”
From Geraldine (cont.)
Sunrise Two has just received the official offer of 30-year free lease of land and buildings from the Royal Government of Cambodia
following several months of application and negotiation. We are very pleased with this outcome for the future of Sunrise Two. A won-
derful donation from Mary Gourley and her team from the Juniper Network Foundation Fund has provided the children of Sunrise Two
with school materials and bedding for the coming year and also supported the career orientation project.
Our community based child support program has been extended for another year. Every day at Sunrise One, we have 14 children and
young Buddhist monks who come to study English and computer and every Thursday we have 23 local children attending our dance
and music classes. We have also been supporting 11 children living with families in 4 provinces so that they are able to access Khmer
and English education, health care, counseling and basic food support. We hope to support more children with special needs who will
benefit from the Sunrise programs.
A Career Orientation and Job Preparedness project for High School students has been implemented to provide necessary information,
self-confidence, life coping skills, and training and students in grades 11 and 12 and university to ensure that they are ready for job
placement and independent life when they leave their Sunrise family.
At Sunrise One, Mrs Sona, an engineer from Engineering Without Borders, conducted an awareness session for interested students
and described ideas and theories relating to physics and engineering. The students then undertook the task of building ships and
tested their achievements.
And special thanks to Leah Clayton and the many other donors who have contributed to the refurbished kitchen at Sunrise Two. We
now have a stainless steel table for food preparation, cabinets and new equipment.
Sunrise One has been completely repainted, including the kitchen and dining room, children’s rooms,
classrooms, dance and music hall, library and office. The children were fully involved in choosing their
favourite colours for their sleeping areas and classes.
A very kind sponsor, Rebecca Nickolakis, has do-
nated 10 bikes for children at Sunrise Two which is
very useful for our older children’s transport to
school.
A generous donation of a Tuk Tuk from the
Bendigo Bank organized by our new Treasurer,
Richard Fennell, is especially useful for transport-
ing the younger children to school.
An annual Memorial service has been arranged for many years for our deceased
children. This year’s service was held on August 21 with all staff and children
participating.
Five Buddhist monks and a group of Buddhist practitioners were invited to bless
the facility and dedicate all the food to all of our Sunrise children who have
passed away.
Child Development & Parenting Skills This special course was provided to our caregivers and staff in order for them to
be aware of children’s needs and child developmental stages, to be able to pro-
vide effective parenting care for children and to help them cope with school and
social problems.
Domestic Violence Domestic Violence Awareness Training was conducted to provide staff, especially
house parents and caregivers, with an understanding of what constitutes domes-
tic violence. The root causes which lead to committing family violence were iden-
tified to help prevent them from being victims or perpetrators of domestic vio-
lence, particularly to children.
Spelling Bee contest in July
A group of 9 Sunrise One students entered the Spelling Bee contest conducted by Sovannaphumi
school in July. As a result, 4 of our Sunrise girls (Phorn Soknay, Sok Heng, Hir Bunary and Ung
Thavedy) were champions in the contest among hundreds of contestants from schools across
Phnom Penh and were each awarded a one term scholarship for their English course. Congratula-
tions to them all.

Khmer Proverb Something tasty to the mouth is not as potent as something tasty to the soul.
Update on Kei Kei has now returned to Cambodia following his treatment at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Adelaide. He is now
able to walk faster and has more stamina, but he will still need monthly blood transfusions and medication to continue
growing. We will be able to supply the medication he needs (Exjade— the oral once-daily medication that reduces iron
overload and allows people with thalassemia to live a near normal life span) but 200 other children at the Angkor Hospital
for Children in Siem Reap also need this medication.
Visitors to Siem Reap could donate directly to the hospital for the supply of this important medication or could donate
blood at the hospital to help all the children with thalassemia. Without Exjade, children with thalassemia like Kei can ex-
pect to die in their twenties.

2013 Australian Study Tour For several years now, Peter Davies (one of our Board Members) has organized an annual study tour for 4-6 students at the Central
Coast Grammar School, New South Wales. Somonny Mith gives his views on this wonderful opportunity below:
“Australia is the development country, I was very happy that I could go to Australia in Study Tour Program with my mates in Sun-
rise Children’s Village. While I was staying in Australia, I could get many benefits, challenge, experi-
ence and I had joined many activities with my host family and my school. • I could know the communication of Australian people (friendly and helpful)
• In free time most people always spend their time and money for holiday and sport • Culture: they always respect each other and especially they respect the law of their country
• Education: most students always study hard, respect the time.
My Challenges: At first time, when I arrived in Australia, I felt so boring because I could not under-
stand about Australian culture. Especially I could not understand my host family as well, they spoke
so fast. And I had tried my best to understand about them and finally I could understand. Other
thing, my school is bigger than in Cambodia and I had lost many times, but my friends in CCGS are
friendly and helpful. They guided me the directions that I should go or should not go.
My Experiences: While I was staying in Australia I thought I had got many experience from Austra-
lian culture. Example, Australian people always respect the law, especially I had focused on traffic law.
I have been to many places in Australia: Aquarium, Imax (the biggest 3D cinema), Reptile
Park, Powerhouse Museum, tall ship, played golf, Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Beaches…
My Activities: I had joined many activities while I was staying in Australia: • I studied at CCGS with my friends from Sunrise and in Australia
• I went to many excursions with my school • I went to watch football match with my host family
• I did two key rings in Industrial class • I practiced my English with my host family and other people in Australia
• I had said thank you to our sponsors.”
A romduol, a small yellowish-white flower, is the national flower of the Kingdom of Cambodia. Since ancient
times, Cambodian women have often been compared to the Romduol flower because of its attractive fra-
grance; a unique scent that is prominent in the late afternoon and can travel over long distances with the
wind. With its sturdy stems that measure up to 30cm, the Romduol plant can grow to a height of 12 meters.
These plants are being planted to enhance public parks. ….Wikipedia

Pancake Treat Sunrise supporters from Sydney, Alexis
and Eriko, visited Sunrise One in July
and they cooked hundreds of pancakes
for our children after they finished their
lunch.
The Barclays Bank of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates have been very
generous and supportive to our top outstanding students and seven of
them were provided with an iPad each. Another 24 students who also
received outstanding results in their Khmer general studies were pre-
sented with gifts. The awards were made in August, with Mum Geraldine
being on hand to make the presentations.
Many thanks to Martin McHugh of Barclays Bank who coordinated these
gifts for our deserving students.
iPad Gifts
Our three-day annual beach trip to Kompong Som was arranged from July 4th to 6th. It was a wonderful trip when all staff and chil-
dren from both centres, Sunrise One and Sunrise Two, travel together to the beach, and enjoyed seafood, sea swimming, sports, ba-
nana riding and dancing.
Three of Sunrise One’s music students did a special performance with their instruments, including violin, saxophone and clarinet.
Thanks to our supporters who donate specifically to this annual treat for our children.
Beach Trip to Kompong Som
New Nursery Classroom at Sunrise Two
Thanks to a generous sponsor, we have been able to commence work on our new nursery class-
room at Sunrise 2, separating an area from the existing library. This will certainly enhance the
learning environment of our younger children.
Library Renovations & E-Library at
Sunrise Two
Considerable progress has been made to modify the existing
library in Sunrise 2 to attract more children to read and prac-
tice their English skills by creating a comfortable space.
This has been made possible by Sarah Kang in memory of her
Dad, William Bunthon Kang, Kate Reilly (Baraka) and Nigel and
Lani Clements. Their generous gifts will be much appreciated
by the children.

Sunrise kids cook for Sydney’s homeless at Our Big Kitchen, on 8th and 10th September
It was a rare opportunity for 5 visiting young people from Sunrise to participate in a unique cooking fundraiser in Sydney organised by
supporter Sue Liu (pictured below with Waew and Geraldine) at Our Big Kitchen in Bondi. People travelled from all over the country to
meet Geraldine and the kids and to cook together to feed Sydney’s homeless. It was the kids who stole people’s hearts when they
introduced themselves and sang a Cambodian song, with Waew explaining to everyone what life is like at Sunrise.
Watch this beautiful moment here: http://youtube/Rd-3FyWbQtU
The two groups collectively raised over $5,000 and
prepared 770 meals (430 on Sunday and 340 on
Tuesday). The food was distributed to Chapel by the
Sea, Jewish Crisis Centre and to families at the
Children’s Hospital.
You can see details of the events and photos on
Sue’s blog at http://zulucommunications.com.au/

Brightside Gala Event
The girls from Project Brightside hosted a Gala Dinner on 27 July at The Kirribilli Club
in Sydney proudly supporting Sunrise Children’s Villages. It was a fabulous night en-
joyed by all with the event raising $32,000. The generous donations of supporters
created the Project Brightside Scholarship Fund which will provide living assistance for young Sunrise adults studying at university in Australia, who gain valuable career and
life skills which they take back to Cambodia. The Project Brightside girls thank all at-
tendees and generous supporters of the evening and look forward to doing it all again next year!
Project Brightside’s mission is to be the change they want to see in this world, and the
next generation of Brightsiders are living this mission with some inspiring young la-
dies from Boronia Park Public School - Lucy, her sister Bella, along with friends, Maya
and Charlie – recently spent several days during their school holidays baking and sell-
ing cupcakes and raised $78 for the children at Sunrise.
Macquarie Cycle for Sunrise
Macquarie Martin Place staff recently held a sta-
tionary bike challenge. Four teams each comprised
four senior representatives who pedalled for 15
minutes in total over the 60 minute challenge. The
team which pedalled the furthest AND raised the
most money was the winner.
All funds raised were matched by the Macquarie
Group Foundation, achieving a wonderful total of
approximately $54,000! Congratulations and
many thanks to all the cyclists.
Special thanks to Joseph Ninio
“My name is Joseph and I'm writing to you from Adelaide, South Australia
and I'm 11 years old. Last year during the OzAsia Festival I went to see
your show at the Festival Centre and I really wanted to help. This year after
I did a project on inequality in the world, I decided that I should do some-thing about the inequality in the world so I decided to hold a bake sale and
an art exhibition to raise money for your orphanage with my 9 year old
brother Jeremy, my 6 year old sister Sarah and our friends Grace, Harry
and Patrick helped us to cook things to sell at our bake sale. We raised
$690.35 to help you continue with your theatre program.
We hope this helps you. …… Kind regards, Joseph Ninio Joseph with family and friends
and Cate Fowler, the producer of
Cambodian Sun Rising.
