Under 5s at the Canon Andrea Mwaka School

Hi, I thought I'd post a picture of what I was up to this morning! I helped out with a group of 3-5 year olds at the International School in Dodoma, which is actually 10 mins walk from where I am staying. It is a Christian school, which is run by the Diocese of Central Tanganyika. I did a few songs with them and joined in with some other activities also. A huge issue in Tanzania is that of education. It is seriously lacking and that can be a huge issue on a day-to-day basis when people haven't been taught to problem-solve and think for themselves. What they are doing at Canon Andrea, is teach from the English syllabus. There are many missionary children as well as local muslim and christian children who attend. I will post more next week but a thunderstorm is brewing and the internet connection keeps going off! Thanks,

Emily
