January 2012: Arts Project

Stefanja from Holland, Valerie from the US and Miguel from Spain inspired the children to work in small groups to create the most beautiful pieces of art from material collected in their village and then carefully glued onto big sheets of paper.

 

On a subsequent day, the children made little racing cars from cardboard and toilet paper rolls.

 

Playing mother and baby

The children have now discovered the joys of role play, and in particular, the roles of mother and baby with the help of soft toys. They enjoy this so much they don’t want to stop playing and have come up with unnumerable ways of taking care of their babies.

 

Soap bubbles

The new favorite pastime of the children is blowing soap bubbles.

 

Computer classes

Due to Fredrik’s successful fundraising and a few more separately donated second hand computers we now have 10 computers and are able to conduct two computer classes three evenings a week. At the moment, our students are learning how to type – they are becoming real professionals – and they are also learning how to use a painting program.

A big THANK YOU to alll donors!
