Today my group went back to the orphanage from the previous day, except this time we were going to see the primary school where the majority of the children attend. The school is located about 30 minutes by foot through very beautiful landscape. We were escorted by two of the older girls from the orphanage which was great. They chatted non stop about the various fruit trees and the scenery around. Once we arrived we were greeted by the Vice Principle who gave us a brief tour. He then rounded up the 8 students from the orphanage. It was great to finally meet them as we have been to this Orphanage various times and have only meet the younger kids that live there! We also found out that about 8 of the kids from the orphanage attend an elite private school on full scholarships! We were very impressed by this fact and that majority of the kids were in school! After our visit to the school we returned to the orphanage for an afternoon of good fun! We played musical chairs, when was the last time anyone has done that?! So fun!
The second group had an adventurous day at the Government clinic. They did plenty of antenatal care visits which included immunizations and laboratory work.
This evening we had an amazing supper by our in house chef! And tonight we are saying goodbye to our buddy from Scotland. He is making his way back to Kenya to continue his volunteer work. We will miss him dearly!!
