The Peak Sneng School caters for around 600 primary pupils during the day and then adults in the afternoon.

Every two years teachers and students from Bowral High have been travelling to Cambodia and Vietnam.

They have formed a bond with the school and the people of Peak Sneng village and have tried to help out where they could.

To date this is the largest fundraising that they have undertaken with the primary school.

Bowral High School librarian Bede Kervin said they had committed themselves to help fund the building of a library."They don't have a place where they could just sit and read," he said.

"At the moment their teaching is on a blackboard and there is only one book with the teacher.

"This way there would be more resources for them."

The library would cost around $US5000.

So far around $600 had been raised from a barbecue.

Visit the students and teachers tomorrow in the plaza, where they will be selling raffle tickets and taking donations.
