Still Hot

Day 4:Friday

The work of a full day

For today, the main focus on our work for Kipevu was all about writing a letter or a composition to be sent to Stratford Hall. They were to be filled with things that students and teachers would like to know about how the Kipevu students live. For these letters, the group talked about including certain themes such as where they get their water, and what they do in their lives besides attending school. The students we focused on teaching today were more in the higher grades, looking more at grades 5, 6, 7, and 8.

Day 6 March 25th (Friday)

Mad event at Aga Khan

Although I haven't heard much from what happened today, but I did hear that it was fantastic, which I am happy for, because that is all that matters. My next event will probably be the dress rehearsal of "Mad Night" in Aga Khan Academy, which is the upcoming music and dance show which I am stoked about. I am expecting much from these kids, especially after seeing quite a few of them rehearse! I am especially especting much from a student singing a very powerful Beyonce song, which I have no clue what it is but I know from memory.

Kenya--Shawn

As we were leaving the airport on Saturday night, no one knew what the next few days were going to be like. After the first nine and a half hour flight (in which I got no sleep) we landed in Amsterdam. We had a 5-6 hours layover there, and then boarded a plane for another eight and a half hour flight. We then landed in Nairobi, and managed to gather all of our baggage in the midst of complete chaos. We transferred to their smaller airport, and took our last 40 minute flight to Mombasa, where we were greeted by a large number of students. It was an unforgettable journey.
