Growing Together: Westview International School Hosts Interactive Learning Progress Seminar
PHNOM PENH, February 2026 — Westview International School Cambodia recently welcomed parents and guardians for its highly anticipated annual learning progress workshop. Titled “Growing Through the Years,” the seminar was designed to bridge the gap between classroom instruction and home support, offering families a deep dive into the school’s holistic educational approach.
