Three new students.

And all of a sudden, we have 13 students! Munaaya didn’t come anymore since the first week. We don’t know why. Munaaya liked school very, very much! I heard on the market, of somebody from her compound, that Munaaya didn’t like school anymore. We don’t believe that: We think that there is nobody who wants to take her to the post office where we pick the children with the MotorKing.

But now we have three more children. One of them arrived last week already. His name is Richmond or Maami. It is a boy around 8 years old with autism.Because he has a weak muscle tone what gives him a lanky walk. He gets tired real fats and he can nor run. He wants to do everything in his own way. His best friend, for now, is Faith. 

We also have David. David is about 13 and he has Down Syndrom. He is very nice. But , because he is the oldest of the group, he thinks he is in charge. Sorry for him: that is not the case! He like very much to ride on a bicycle. So much, that the second day Kojo found him on the main road to Sandema, already at the second bridge! For now he cannot ride on a bicycle anymore, until we figured out a way to let him know how far he can go.



Last but not least Elijah: Elijah is around ten years old. He is smart and he is able to connect with Gilbert and Ezekiel. Elijah has a balance problem. That is the reason that he falls a lot. He doesn’t want to use a walker. He has a bright loud laugh, which shows us that he likes to be in class! 

On the pictures it is clear how the new children are welcomed in the group. That just makes you happy!
