Back to school…kind of

School re-opened last week and we were able to start of right at our school in Mathare. We have been receiving many new students and we even had to turn away some of those asking to join the school. That is always a hard moment but we try direct them to other good schools.

The other school that I work with in Gachie, is a different challenge. Last year we had to move out of the premises we were letting and we thought we had a new space until a last minute change threw everything into a spin. As schools re-opened last week we found ourselves without a place to bring the children to. That resulted into a lot of leg work and conversations as a team of volunteers, teachers and parents worked to get a new space. So though its a week later we have found a new space where we move to tomorrow. So hopefully, if all goes well, the kids will be in class by end of week.
