SOUTH COAST AND HIGH SCHOOL DETAILS AND FIRST EVER TIWI FUN DAY - MY FAVORITE PLACE

SUNDAY, June 17, 2012 We decided to hit Ingili before church service so we could say hello to Pastor Allan who has made all  of my work possible.  He has set up all of my connections here and has helped in huge ways.  So I was able to say hi and Allan was able to tell Ken a little bit more information on  how to get started if you want to get a secondary school going.  First - get a title deed to the property, not just a bill of sale, second get plans drawn up for the school.  Send the plans and the title deed to the minister of education in Nairobi to get their okay for a secondary school and then they will tell you necessary details with a checklist from there and how to go about doing buildings in what order.  It was such great, helpful information from someone who just started a high school one year ago.   I also got to say hello to Anne, the matron and chef at Bomani and Ingili right away.   It was great to see her and pa...

kids at the free school in Bomani - see earlier posts. Kids al received new shoes and were very excited.  Tuesday, June 26, 2012 Today we were off to Vipingo, the red/maroon school to do the activity day.   When we youngest do activity days we break the kids into 2 groups.  The smallest three groups of kids and the biggest three groups of kids.  We have an outside large motor activity, a craft/inside activity, and a bible lesson activity.  The biggest kids act out the bible story in really fun ways.   Examples of large motor activities have been basketball, kickball, volleyball, baseball,  hip-i-t-hopes (balls you sit on a jump up and down on), sack races, ring toss, bowling.   This year we did a volleyball type of game I think. I did the crafts and what we did this year and teach them about winter.  We read books about winter, had them hold ice to watch it melt, drank some hot coco, and cut out “ sn...

Another day gone by in Kenya

October 11, 2010 The first full day in Kenya and it was great.   Really spent the time exchanging money, buying groceries, and getting things ready for the next few weeks. Lots of emailing and phone calling to get things settled.    Had time to get a massage and Kristen and I got our toes done.    Now we are going to work on our Beth Moore Believing God bible study and go to sleep because we have to be up at 5 to get to the south coast for the next two days.  We will be working with Tiwi and Perani.    I will be doing my first stranger danger presentation so pray for the kids understanding. Also, my kids will be going to a funeral on Tuesday for a dear aunt of mine.   She was suffering from lung cancer.  They gave her six months to live 3 years ago.  We will miss her dearly, but she had a great last few years.  Lots of traveling and time to say goodbye.    My kids will be going to the funeral without me and the last...
