While at Sagail Nursery/ Primary school the builders started to plaster the walls with the help of the boys and Ellie, ready for us to paint the walls. The walls began to take shape and form a smooth surface.It was good to see the improvements in front of our eyes. While the girls and Rahi took over the lessons. Emily S, Lauren and Emilie taught English, RE, maths and more English. Emily S, Emilie, Ellie and Shannon painted the sign yet again, ready to write the school's name, proudly, on there tomorrow.
At lunch we ate the two groups meal which was Biryani and Mtwapa potatoes. Then in the afternoon we stayed at Mtwapa Academy and supervised the classes that were doing their end of year tests, while some looked after the kindergarten groups. Emilie had to take the same test as standard 6. The little ones were really hyper and kept on harassing us, especially Jack,H in which they stretched his top that now looks like a dress. In between the tests the pupils played a game of football where numerous people got trampled on.
Emilie, Emily S and Jake x
Jake: Hey everyone at home, especially mummy :) miss you so much. Can't believe you missed waving me off. I'm going to get you all something from here (probably something small and cheap ;)) Can't wait to see you when I get back :) swear down if you don't comment on this I will get you something even smaller and cheaper ;) miss you all loads
Emilie: Hello, you probes wont read this until i come home and tell you to look at it so umm yeah. Im having lots of fun unlike you in Devon - you losers! I have fed a giraffe and poked a lizard but was not aloud to sit on the tortoises for some strange, bizarre reason. See you when i get back, don't forget to pick me up!!!

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I wasn't allowed out to 'wave you off' before you left....but I will be there when you get home. Terry has been to rugby and started training....you'll never believe this but he told me he is full back next season!
We're not worried about any presents....we just don't want the M&S shoes back...surely someone will wear them ('Swear down' if you bring them home.
We are looking forward to trying your cooking and nan says keep giving it your all.....
Lots of Love Mum xx
Glad to hear that the school is coming on. Hope you all enjoyed your day and all your hard work is really paying off. Hope your cookins okay Laura :P. Love you x
ReplyDeleteDeh six in the Big Brother hoose, and the housemates are grumpy because they have to get up early to go to school!
ReplyDeleteEmily S - can't believe you're teaching English -are the Kenyan kids punctuating their sentences with, like 'like' every other word?
We have emailed you - if you get the chance, call or email us to let us know how you're getting on (as you didn't write much in your blog!). Lots of love from Mum, Dad and Lucy

Hi, Callum. Hope you're OK and having a great time. Love to see all the photos and read about the day's events every evening. Unfortunately, Grandad and I are off to the Cotswolds (that's not the unfortunate bit)so I won't be able to catch up with all the news until Sunday night. KK had a fab birthday but we missed you being there. Look after yourself. Lots of love from us both. G&G X X
ReplyDeleteHey.

Take care sis. xx
Hi everyone,sounds like another good day had by all. Loving the cooking bit-can't wait to try out your new skills.
ReplyDeleteJack H- Erin is on a sleepover so we have been very opportunistic and been out to the Gurkha Restaurant (comes highly recommended if anyone hasn't been there-fab Nepalese food and you don't have to sift through the rice yourselves either!) and then called in at the DBA on the way home. The lead singer from Kasabian was there and so was Steve Walsh who apparantly has something to do with Leicester City! We still miss you but enjoying our new found freedom and it's very cheap to go out without you. Dad says 'Having a sick time without you...so when are you back?'
Love you lots
Mum and Dad xxx
