Day Eight
Tue 25th October - 5.53pm by Tom Cheesmur
Right - it's just happened again. Just wrote loads of information down and then lost it again as the computer timed out. So now going to do a really quick blog.
Morning, lovely breakie late matarto's(mini bus that takes us to the school). Excellent PE lessons, dodgeball, benchball and volleyball. Benchball game was excellent. Student in bibs, cones set out worked really well and the students loved it. Our boys were great !!! Good work to Will, Patrick, Eddie, Ben and Alfie !!!
Lunch was one of, if not the best experience since i've been out here. We visited the students houses with a teacher from the school. Three St. A's students and myself walking through the slums of Kenya. We arrrived at the students house which can only be described as a mud hut. No electicity or running water. Lots of people living in one small room with no roof. We asked lots of questions and met some amazing people.
It really brought home the reason of why we were out here. It was an amazing feeling that I will never forget although it is very difficult to explain and describe with anything that will do the experience justice.
In the afternoon, we had football practice with the school team. Louis, Mike and myselkf really enjoyed this and the School team were obviously thankful. I don't think they normally get that sort of training. There is some talk of a match so we will see.
Water Polo in pool on our return. I think I scored 30 goals past the boys much to their disgust. Dinner finshed now bed !!!! Much deserved !!!! What a totally unforgetable day.
