February Update!

First Visitation Day

Becky went to visit the children on their first visitation day.  She emailed, "They did their interviews very well and I am glad to report to you that no one was pushed back to their previous classes."  Becky brought treats for the children and they enjoyed the afternoon together.

The children greeted her upon her arrival.
How sweet is this?

Second Visitation Day

Emma went to visit the children on the second visitation day.  They were of course so happy to see him!  Emma wrote about the visit:

"The children are really doing well and right at this point of the term they are preparing for the first elections of the school prefects (highest school honor in Uganda) and a number of them have put in their applications to contest as pupil heads in the school.  They are very happy, clean and love the school.  This is really good and it will help them to speak good English (Uganda's national language).  Now they told me that they are to try very hard to campaign and week for the votes from their fellow friends."
