Pchum Ben offer: one month for $500 in Phnom Penh
Pchum Ben is the season when Cambodian families come back together. We are marking it with the thing we are most confident about: not a brochure, but a month inside the school.
Until 30 October 2026, a full trial month at Orange Crest is $500 instead of $699 — and if you enrol afterwards, that $500 comes straight off your fees.
What the Pchum Ben offer includes
- One month for $500: instead of the usual $699 — a saving of $199. A real month, in a real class, with the children who would be your child’s classmates. Enrol afterwards and the $500 comes off your fees in full.
- 50% off the enrolment fee: The one-time enrolment fee is $800, so this saves a family $400.
- A free set of uniform: One full set, worth $30.
- Until 30 October 2026: That is the last day to book. Places are limited.
Together that is $629 less than the same start would normally cost: $199 off the month, $400 off enrolment, and the $30 uniform set.
The school is closed for Pchum Ben
Orange Crest closes for the Pchum Ben holiday from 10 to 14 October 2026, as published in our academic calendar. The offer runs straight through it and for a fortnight after, so nothing has to be decided during the holiday itself.
Why a month, and not a tour
A tour shows you a building. An hour of good behaviour tells a parent very little — any school can manage one. A month tells you what you actually need to know: whether your child walks in happily on the ninth morning, whether the teachers know them by name, and what the lunch tray really looks like at noon.
That is why the trial is a real month in a real class, not a taster morning, and why the fee is credited rather than kept. Big on Character. Close as a Family — a month is long enough to find out whether we mean it.
Who it is for
Orange Crest is an international Montessori and IEYC preschool and kindergarten in Toul Kork, Phnom Penh, for children from 15 months to six years: Bunny for 15 months to 2 years, Panda for 2 to 3, and Giraffe, our full Montessori kindergarten, for 3 to 6. A trial month can start in any of the three.
How to take it up
Message us on Telegram, or call 092 88 96 99 or 016 88 96 99. We are 200m from Toul Kork Market, and the office is open Monday to Friday 07:30–17:00 and Saturday 08:00–12:00. Come and see the classrooms first if you would rather — the offer is the same either way, until 30 October 2026.
