Party at Chenda Home

On 8th August 2009, a party after 12th trade exam was held at Chenda¡'s home (Mom Keo Pich Chenda).

"Cows Climb the Mountain" was the main dish for lunch. It was heartedly made by all our friends although it was not as delicious as the one made at restaurant. Too excited to eat and spoil the dish!!


In the afternoon, we played the game of "real heart questions" and "name calling". Regrettably, the party ended so soon, but we made the unforgettable period together!!

Flower Ceremony

Welcome to Toul Tom Poung High School 12A1!!!

Flower Ceremony is the tradition of every high school on the purpose of offering alms to monks and raising money for school facilities construction. It is celebrated every year at the end of March or the start of April and lasts for 2 days. This year it was held on 28th and 29th March 2009. The first day evening we invite monks to say the prayer, and the second day morning we offers the foods, noodle, candies, tea, money and others gifts to monks.

After that every class celebrates their own party with lunch, singing, dancing, etc. Flower ceremony is the only and the most exciting time for classmates gathering.

Outstanding Students Competition (OSC) 2008-2009

The Outstanding Students Competition (OSC) has been held every year by the Ministry of Education Youth and Sport and initiated by Samdech Decho Hun Sen in order to provide 12th and 9th grade students with the chance of challenging with each other in the field of Khmer literature, mathematics and physics.

In academic year 2008-2009, the national OSC was held in Sihanouk Province with 66 Phnom Penh participants and hundreds of provincial participants. The examination lasted for three days from 01st-03rd April 2009.

This year, 9 students of Toul Tom Poung High School (TTP) successfully got through the capital OSC and participated in the national OSC. They are: Beside the competition, we made several friends with other high school students. Although the national OSC lasted for one week, we had many memorable and valuable experiences that I will never forget.

On 04th April 2009 at Golden Hill hotel 3:30pm, after three days of tiring examination, we had a photograph taken of our 9 TTP students and 2 Chba Om Pov students, who were our roommates.

On 06th April 2009 at Angkor Beer Factory 8:30am, we visited and witnessed the line of coke production and we got a bottle of coke free. We had made more friends, who are from Phsar Deum Thkov, Intrak Tevy, Sento Mok, Wat Koh, Samky, and Beltei.

On 07th April 2009 at Golden Beach Restaurant 5:00pm, the result were finally released. Only 4 of TTP students passed. It was just a satisfactory result. However, we had done our best. I hope in 3 years the four 9th grade students still continue the spirit of OSC and succeed better than us. On the right was Mrs. Pov Samay, the deputy director of TTP.
