We kicked off the day with an omelette encased in bread to avoid contaminated fingertips. Everyone contributed; shovels in hand. Dylan (Spiderman – the children think he is this world class superhero) with his children’s spade which is generally considered to be used for building sandcastles rather than digging big ditches in dry, barren and compressed dirt. Especially with the sweltering sun beating down on our pale, sunscreened arms (not used to these harsh conditions) bathing in sweat.
We finally buried the rubbery, matt black rings that are normally attached to vehicles to contribute to their forward and backward movement (tyres). It was hard. Stoney shovels of dirt were thrown into the depths of the pits that we had previously created. We slapped gloopy, ocean blue paint onto to the rubbery, matt black rings that are normally attached to vehicles to contribute to their forward and backward movement (tyres).
After lunch we started work on the inside of the classrooms, painting organs of the body to educate the children in an artistic form of wall art. We slaved away over the walls which are now bursting with colour. Using an array of shades, we were able to make it beautiful.
Unfortunately we were not able to do the dancing and drumming workshop because it rained buckets but if we all wish upon all our lucky stars, we will be able to do it tomorrow.
