Photographs

I thought you'd like to see some of the children we've been working with. Sarah has put some photographs on facebook but I asked her to take some of me and the children too.

I hope you like them!

Certificates

Today we were giving out certificates to the children who have been doing the phonics work this year. The children have done really well, and have improved a lot. They were very happy when they got their certificate, and I think they were proud of the work that they have done.

Sarah and I will be finishing our work in the schools next week because the schools will be getting ready for Christmas the week after.

We will also be going to a game reserve before we come home, and I am really looking forward to seeing the animals.

I hope you are all ok. Are you doing anything exciting at the moment?

Hi everyone

How is school going? Have you started Christmas stuff yet? Sarah says that she doesn't feel like it is nearly Christmas because it is so hot here, and it feels like summer.

The boys and girls in one school (Rosehill) understand us and their teachers speak English to them all of the time, although they have found a couple of words more difficult. The children in Amaoti 3 find it more difficult because they don't speak as much English, especially the younger ones. That is why Sarah is here though, to help them with English, so that is good, and they are finding it easier.

It sounds like you had lots of fun in your holidays, well except poor Megan. Does it still hurt? I've never been to Blackpool, maybe someone will take me there sometime. I love fireworks. They don't really do much here. Hope you had a nice time watching them.

Thank you for praying for us! And thanks for the questions.

Bye
