This Week


Wendy went to school every day this week. She ended up teaching most days as there were some days when a teacher didn't show up in the class. Imagine getting away with that at home. There was some testing going on with the Grade 8 class and some of the teachers were out invigilating exams at other schools in the area. When the teachers do that they don't replace the missing teachers. Anyhow Wendy said that she enjoyed teaching. The Grade 5 class that she was in were responsible for Assembly this week. She taught them some songs for it. I will try and post the videos. I stayed back on Tuesday and helped in the office and then did some weed whacking in the afternoon. On Wednesday I went back to school and Thursday I went through the computer room. We will be ordering the new computers soon and hope to set them all up this week and do some training with the girls next weekend.


Meredith our roommate and Wendy and I booked our camping Safari this week. We go on the 24th - 26th. We are looking forward to that.

On Friday we went to school early to see Wendy's class perform then then left at tea time to go back to Hekima. We had laundry to  do and then we went to town again with Kate to look at computers. Kate had a lunch appointment so the 3 of us went for lunch at an Indian Restaurant. It was very good and very nice. When we met back up with Kate we went to a mall to look at more computers and white boards. We stopped for frozen yogurt and at a little Massai Market. Then home. In the evenings we usually end up helping with dishes and then homework.
Last night was movie night. We watched  "Despicable Me" Wendy took it easy and went to bed early. She had a busy week of teaching.

Today we went to the Elephant Orphanage and To the Giraffe Sanctuary with 10 of the younger girls. We watched the baby Elephants get fed. At the Giraffe Santuary we fed some Giraffes and then had a snack and sodas.
