Don Bosco Hotel School of Sihanoukville has reached its fifth year of educational service to poor youth. Almost all the first 375 graduated students are already working in hotels, restaurants, and guest houses. This is a small but significative contribution to Cambodia after decades marked by violence and poverty. When enrolling students in our Hotel School, the priority is given to boys and girls coming from disadvantaged families and to orphans.
Following St. John Bosco’s tradition, we try to help this youth-in-need preparing them for a job. One of the best ways to do this in an emerging international tourist destination is to offer them training in Hospitality and Hotel Services

THE SCHOOL

During the academic years 2007-2011, our school offered training to 375 students.  The courses did last one year in 2007 and 2008. Late 2008 till now, the program was extended to 2 academic years instead of one. Next session applications should be sent in 2012 only, another selection shall take place in August 2012.
