I just got back from the school, where my group of kids told everyone about the project for Matopo Primary School, how they had collected materials, gone from class to class to collect even more materials, and then given them to my colleague, Cindy Hauert. Even better was the thanks we all received in the form of a large packet filled with letters in children's handwriting. This whole report was given during the annual Advents singing at the school, so we packed it into a Christmas story of gving.
Unfortunately, in the excitement no pictures were taken, so I hope to rectify that mistake soon and add them to the blog.
The next project is for the kids to write about it for the local paper. Okay, it's not English, but the kids are enjoying the seriousity of the whole process, and there's time enough for English again in the new year.
Now we can only hope and pray that the children of Matopo are being spared from the choloric catastrophy that is rushing up and down Zimbabwe.
