Beauty of teaching

As a single parent with a 9yr and 5 yr old your lifestyle changes. I now for the time less time to explore and research.
So instead on reviews and places to explore will write about my experience as an expat. Divorced from a legal marriage, custody battle and navigating education system here as a non Thai reader or speaker.
So my magazine take a sight detour for now.
Will still write and try to bring awareness of human trafficking.
Will show case my photography as a source of income for us.
Located here in Phuket, Thailand. Serves a great need and we happy to support. Hope you too will support by sharing, volunteer, or donations.
Asia Center Foundation (ACF) helps disadvantaged children through different programs from 3 to 18 years old. From a pre-school, to sports programs, ACF enables children to develop themselves in many ways.
Why are so many children out of school?
Children who live in extreme poverty face many barriers to education including:
- Child labor or having to work to add to the family income, or care for younger siblings
- Low family income and therefore inability to afford school fees or supplies
- Disruptive family circumstances (death, divorce, children left with grandparents)
- No birth certificates
What is ACF doing to help disadvantaged children gain access to quality education?
Asia Center Foundation created many programs to help children and their parents deal with difficult situations for Thai and Burmese children from 3 to 18 years old. These include:
- The Patong Childcare Center for 3 to 6 year old children from Patong and Kathu area provides them a safe, secure environment where they can learn (many for the first time) to follow a set routine, to obey rules, to develop their creativity and to behave in a social environment with children of their age.
- Scholarship Program for children between 7 to 18 in the Phang Nga and Phuket provinces provides support and encouragement to families facing financial and social problems whose children benefit from the scholarship program.
- Full care in a “safe house” called Ban Sii Som for children whose home environments are not safe or suitable for children.
- JumpStart Learning Center for Burmese children who come from at-risk and poor families and for various reasons, who cannot attend Thai government schools.
- The ACF Youth Program that focuses on Primary school students varying between the ages of 8 and 12 serves as a platform for life skills training, leadership and sports development.

Impetigo or school sores
Common especially with children in school. Here in Thailand i have seen some very bad cases in children that can leave scares the rest of their life. Poor or village children i have seen the worst cases. Today had to send my children friends away because they had it. The boy could not go to school his case was so bad.

Overview
-
Impetigo
Impetigo (im-puh-TIE-go) is a common and highly contagious skin infection that mainly affects infants and children. Impetigo usually appears as red sores on the face, especially around a child’s nose and mouth, and on hands and feet. The sores burst and develop honey-colored crusts.
Treatment with antibiotics is generally recommended to help prevent the spread of impetigo to others. It’s important to keep your child home from school or day care until he or she is no longer contagious — usually 24 hours after you begin antibiotic treatment.
Symptoms
-
Bullous impetigo
-
Ecthyma
Classic signs and symptoms of impetigo involve red sores that quickly rupture, ooze for a few days and then form a yellowish-brown crust. The sores usually occur around the nose and mouth but can be spread to other areas of the body by fingers, clothing and towels. Itching and soreness are generally mild.
A less common form of the disorder, called bullous impetigo, may feature larger blisters that occur on the trunk of infants and young children.
Causes
You’re exposed to the bacteria that cause impetigo when you come into contact with the sores of someone who’s infected or with items they’ve touched — such as clothing, bed linen, towels and even toys.
Prevention
Keeping skin clean is the best way to keep it healthy. It’s important to wash cuts, scrapes, insect bites and other wounds right away.
To help prevent impetigo from spreading to others:
- Gently wash the affected areas with mild soap and running water and then cover lightly with gauze.
- Wash an infected person’s clothes, linens and towels every day and don’t share them with anyone else in your family.
- Wear gloves when applying antibiotic ointment and wash your hands thoroughly afterward.
- Cut an infected child’s nails short to prevent damage from scratching.
- Wash hands frequently.
- Keep your child home until your doctor says he or she isn’t contagious.
I learned about the school and the need when a friend ask me to join her to go to Pak Ping Church in Phang-Nga Thailand. Located just north of Phuket Island. She was giving the sermon that morning. If you are at Khao Lak for a holiday , they speak english so a friendly place for tourist.
But today I want to write about Khao Lak Christian Bilingual School Project which Pak Ping Church is building. Their goal and the need for the school.
We support this project. Please donate if possible and share the information.
There is a preschool there now but in process of building a primary English language school.
