The class of 96


Wow, some of the teachers are still helping with the National Census which means that the two P4 classes are in one room, that’s a class of 96, ahhhhhh! Anyway this is the second lesson I did with them, really hard work, but worth it the final drawings are amazing. First they had to draw outlines of their faces, then (causing much hilarity) I demonstrated various emotions which the kids had to copy, observe and draw.

Making a new mark...


With thanks to the Nice Bag money I’ve been able to buy some new black markers. Here are the cat faces that P5B did using them.

Book Club

When preparing for our new Reading Club this week, I rummaged through a couple of very dusty cupboards in the hope of finding some books. The search proved a success and I found various old books both Ghanaian and American that the students have all ready started reading! Unfortunately, something got to this one before me and had it for dinner!

Back to school...



Well after a bit of a slow start, the official back to school date kept getting put back and some teachers are still working on the National Census , things are starting to settle down and to welcome everybody back we have this very nice new sign. This is very important here as there are no signposts or road names everyone relies on well known land marks to give directions and find their way around.
