Educational Programme - Day 5

Yesterday we had the fifth day of our Education Programme. It was a fun day, a bit more laid back than usual, and we were able to teach the kids a few things about road safety and about teachers. We didn't have the usual group today but we had plenty of people coming after a long break.

After we got the kids together, we had them sit down in a circle and teach them about road safety. Yogesh told the kids about the importance of safety signals and about how they should cross the road safetly. It was great to see the kids participating in the programme with their own contributions.

After this, Sivaprakash and Yogesh told the kid about teachers. Several of the kids wanted to be teachers, as we found out the third day of our educational programme. We explained to them what teachers did. We had a small whiteboard, which was kindly lent to us. The kids had a fun time lining up in front of it to write their names on the board.

Because we finished our programme earlier than usual today, we spent some time there afterwards talking and playing with the children. We played catch and other simple sports and the kids had a lot of fun. This wrapped our day. We hope to come back again next week to spend some more time with these kids!
