Kindergarden

Monday morning and a new week. Started the day usual with a meeting and then breakfast. Then we headed of to the primary school. First we did some english words and spellings. Had a short break so we just walked around the school looking around. After the break we had a Shona lesson and then did some English readings. The kids were so good! Since they had worked so hard we played Simon says in the end. Then we went to the bus and headed to the pre-school/kindergarden. We had our lunch on our way there which was difficult cause the roads here are just insanely bumpy. When we got there they showed us around a bit and then they asked if we wanted a class ourselves or all the volunteers together and we said we didn't mind but then our community leader was like "maybe the first time we can be all together". And im so glad she said that cause it was just insanity. We came into the classroom and 120 kids were there, two teacher. My. God. It was so loud and complete insanity. But when the teachers told them they were all like angels, SO well behaved, no one fighting or anything. We helped them with the lunch and then waited for them to eat and after that helped to wash their hands since they eat with their hands. Then we went to the playground. First the kids were quite shy and didn't wanna be with us. But after some attempts of games and talking to them, they melted and became insane. I had maybe 50 kids around me, fighting to hold my hand, stroking my hair and braiding it, staring at me, jumping on me, trying to sit on me, you name it. I had to constantly make up games or tell them what to do otherwise they "attacked" me. So we had s skipping rope which they jumped over and went under, tires which we made a line to run and jump in, singing games, fotball, throw the ball etc etc, i was exhausted when we went home. I don't understand how those teachers do this haha. When we got home we went on a boose cruise, had music on and it was so nice. Some people also swimmed. Then we came home and had dinner which was so good. After that we just sat talking at te coffe shop and now its time for bed :)
