In conjunction with the new kitchen and canteen project, we organized some health and hygene seminars for the entire school. Each student attended one of these seminars given by our health volunteer, Adam Troy, and the school nurse, Ms. Ala. At the end of each seminar the school director and I addressed the students about how many people have donated their money and time for them to have the oppotunity to eat a healthy meal each day at school. We spoke about their responsibility for making healthy choices themselves and for helping maintain the upkeep of their new canteen. There were also food prep hygene seminars given to all of the kitchen staff. We are very excited about this project, and thankful to all who have donated. If you have not yet, please go to the website listed below to read more about the project and make a tax deductible donation. We are very close to full funding, and a few more small donations would give us that extra push to full funding.Saturday, April 16, 2011

The Latest News from Peepville
We've finished development on our private lots. We've voted on what we want to develop in our public space. The contractors put in their bids on public space lots for building public buildings and the council and president have voted on the winners. Contractors have written their contracts, had them signed, and have begun to develop the public space in Peepville. Now we need to learn about taxes and start the process of living in our new mini-town. Maybe some of our Peep citizens will start business. Maybe they'll want to go to school, or start families. Time will tell......
Peace Corps Day at School
As part of the 50th Anniversary of Peace Corps celebration, each day of this 50th year of Peace Corps a volunteer celebrates at their work-site. For my day I taught each of my classes about Peace Corps and quizzed them about the lesson for prizes. They enjoyed it, learned a lot and won some fun Peace Corps prizes.
