Part 2: Poekoothay Team Visits Karen School in Werribee.

Thank you to the Australian government for supporting the Karen School. Thank you to the teachers for their dedication, and thank you to the students for their hard work at school. We are so blessed to visit the Karen School and speak with the teachers and students. We are incredibly proud of these young children, who are determined to preserve their language and culture, working hard to keep it alive for future generations.

Introducing Project Thyu

Project Thyu is an initiative for solo artists and bands to showcase their talent, either from their own space or at the Poekoothay studio. Unlike Project Unread No More, this project focuses on smaller-scale, live or recorded music sessions with a more intimate feel.

It is not only for beginners looking to build confidence before performing at larger shows or concerts. It is also for experienced artists who want to explore and share their music in a more focused and relaxed environment.

If youโ€™re interested in being part of Project Thyu, please send your expression of interest through the Poekoothay page or website.
