Before we set up our own tuck shop many of the children were feasting on sugary snacks and energy drinks, meaning they would be hyper for the first hour and tired the second. Unfortunately this is the case across Cambodia, as the cheapest products to purchase are full of sugar and other chemicals.
We decided to offer our children something different, and now cook them a porridge in the morning and offer baguettes in the afternoon. We have one sweet snack, which is sweet bread covered in sesame seeds, but we have got rid of all energy drinks and switched to soy milk instead. Let's hope the students reap the rewards of having extra brain power at exam time!
