Day 5 – 19/07/2017
Today we ate eggy bread for breakfast, which was delicious. After breakfast we got ready and set off walking to the school. Once we arrived at the school there was watermelon eating for us which was refreshing after the hot walk to the school. After we had a snack we were invited to watch the cooks at the school where they were cooking Jollof rice and chicken for our lunch, i helped with the fire so that it would not go out. after the food was prepared we went to work on the foundations of the canteen, we did this by transporting sand in buckets to the canteen where we poured it on to the ground. Some of us also helped dig the sand to put inside the buckets, which was hard work. After an hour or two the lunch was ready so we stopped working and ate. For the rest of the day we continued with foundation work. As well as working we also visited our buddies houses in stages throughout the day, this was a very nice experience because we were made very welcome when meeting our buddies families. After the home visits and the foundation work we began our walk back to the guest house visiting more of our buddies houses on the way. when we got back we had tea then played some games. After a few game we went to bed because we were all so tired from the long day working.
