Off Roading to School

 

Last Monday was our first day in our new school.  It is a beautiful building and inside it looks so nice.  Lou, from Partners Worldwide, said that he would give it an A+.  Another fellow said on a scale from 1 to 10, he would give it a 10+. 

 

It is a joy to work in and although we don't have electricity, the skylights are wonderful at providing light.  As I lock up each day, I keep thinking that I need to turn the lights out.

 

The school is beautiful, but until the rainy season is over and we are able to work on the roads, they are quite something to drive on.  I slip and slide, drive through big puddles of water and go over muddy bumps.  I went into Lusaka today and I think I was probably in the dirtiest car in the city! 

 

But it is so exciting and work continues at a fast pace so that our office/library/resource room will be completed as well as the next double classroom and toilet facilities.  Right now our toilets are temporary.

 

You are all invited to come visit to see the school anytime!!!
