Day 12 – Last day of Project

Today we went to see the finished product at the teachers’ house. We were all amazed that the house had gone from being bricks to having walls and floors. We all felt so proud that we made such a big impact in only a number of days which will last a very long time at the school. We were all then invited by the head teacher to join some classes. We went into a Geography, Maths and Civics class. It was really interesting to see the differences and similarities between our own education and theirs. We invited some children outside to play some games. They were all so excited! We tought them how to play British Bulldog and in return they taught us a couple. We all had such a great time. It was then time to say our goodbyes. We attended a ceremony along with around 700 students, we were slightly outnumbered. They sang their school and national anthem and we sang Flower of Scotland. The headteacher thanked us for the difference we made which really reminded us of our impact. Saying goodbye was really difficult especially to the friends we made. We certainly enjoyed our project phase. We then travelled to our next camp – Masumbo in style in a safari vehicle which was a new experience for most of us. We didn’t know what to expect at the camp but we were all pleasantly surprised that it was a green campsite with proper toilet seats and warm showers. We all took advantage of this and moods were now brighter being clean.
