Day 5

We awoke earlier than normal so that we could get down to the school to prepare for our lesson on British Day. Different people did different tasks including making scones, London and monopoly game, pom poms and magazines. The day consisted of very excited children who where very loud and enthusiastic about each task. We where greeted by the chief and a few of the elders who attended the British Day presentation which was another initiation into the community. Different school and community authorities spoke and children did presentations of dancing and what the did in their British day lesson. The children who where by then very excited where given water bags which they then used for squirting at each other. After such a busy morning the group was knackered so spent the afternoon relaxing before going down to the well to get water, which took about four trips cause we aren’t quite as strong as the children.
