A view from below up to 'The Mountain' house where we hold the club.
Toilets are being installed next to the clubroom which will be a big help. At the moment the children have to go upstairs to the main house.
The guinea pig farm up above the house is finished and was opened last week. There are 60 guinea pigs so far but the stock needs to be built up to 3000 to make it a sustainable money-earning project!
Some of the children painting the papier mache models they had made. The art and craft activities tie in with the English we are learning - the last couple of weeks we have been learning words to do with the weather and the landscape. Prior to that we learned about parts of the body. Our first couple of weeks we learned animal names.
One of our volunteers from Holland with some of the children. So far we have mainly had volunteers from Holland and the USA. Some of them have brought funding generously donated from friends and family back home and this has enabled us to start buying books, toys and games for the project.
Some of the children playing volleyball with the new net bought by one of our volunteers. Fridays we do lots of games and sports with the children.
One of our smallest children with her big sister. We are gradually buying puzzles, books and toys for the little ones. Our next big project is to finish the ceiling and walls of the room, which will be funded by donations from people who have been staying with us over the last few months. Then we will be saving up for the floor - a wood floor will make such a difference to the room.For more photos click HERE
