Om programmet

The Grade 6 class is one of the upper primary school   at our project.Normally the children are selected from the population where their families or guardians are unable to cater for their education.

As a charity we do our best to enroll them to access the quality education so as to change their lives.The class is a mixed one of both girls and boys who get education materials as books, pens, pencils from our charity.They also get uniforms, sweaters, shoes, bags in order to be motivated and forget about the life challenges in their homes and work hard in class. Apart from that the charity gives them a warm food at school during lunch break which to some is the only meal they have for a day and wait for the other day to come back to school and have another meal.

The school gives them a desk to sit on, a black board where shared notes are written and practical teaching done for them to copy and learn.The volunteers help in motivating them to study through checking how they have written if they have understood what was being taught.The volunteers also take an initiative to teach on the black board and check the work.The class also learn from the volunteers about countries in Europe and where they are located on the map.Having volunteers develops the children learning and expands their thinking that they are not centered around Kenya but outside Kenya.

Class work and homework is work that is shared between volunteers and teachers depending on where a volunteer is able to do or teach or do the checking of the books.The subjects taught are English,Mathematics,Social Studies,Science,Composition,Religious Christian Education and Swahili.

It takes 6 hours for upper class  6 to be taught and given homework.They are very good in speaking and playing. On Friday the school is in class untill 10:30a.m and the other one hour and half it is practical exercise where there is dancing and singing both in English and Swahili. The class that leads into such singing is class six and it is a very exciting time which volunteers always look forward to have.

Typisk dag

Aday full of activities sometimes is very tiring but volunteers walk around to do shopping for what they need,other sit on their computers to copy what they have done within the day,other communicate to their friends and families on social media.

On Saturday and Sunday they are free either to go to the nearest markets,visit the forests or gardens. Others are directed to the animal elephant orphanage, giraffee centre.
We also arrange for the volunteers going on to the safari at Masai Mara,Amboseli,Mt Kenya trekking and others of interest.
The beach is also an attraction for the volunteers at Mombasa where when they are a number move in a group using the bus, train or flight to Mombasa.We are always very happy to assist wherever we can.

Fritidsaktiviteter

Free time is  basically from Saturday and Sunday. But is a volunteer wants to go on safari then we can arrange with the volunteer on days available for the safari depending on when the touring company has allocated the volunteer time for the safari.

Otherwise from Monday to Friday is very busy days and very tiring because it involves the kids.They have the energy to play and take a lot of energy from those who teach them. In case volunteers what to do something after the school they normally can shop from the supermarket around,or take coffee as they relax in a nearby shopping center. We orientate the volunteer on the arrival day to be familiar with the market places,shopping malls and supermarket where to buy his or her personal items.

Most volunteers after school take time on computers to write what they have done within the day and also to communicate on social media with their friends and families and Skype

On weekends the volunteers  chose to go for safari which is three days two nights.Mostly it is at Amboseli,Masai Mara, Naivasha and Nakuru. At Naivasha they go to hells gate,Others go to magadi soda.We also have Mt.Kenya Trekking and the equator.

Those who would love a better relaxed place they go to Mombasa at the beach.

We also have the animal elephant orphanage,the giraffe center and the museum.

Classes then resume first week of August till late November to give way for the Christmas holiday in December. In between learning terms, (eg.

In my opinion, education is key to grow as a person, it forges our identity, helps us to find a job, therefore an income and help those in need. I am incredibly proud to be part of this project. Teaching and exchanging knowledge with the children of another culture, a different background is a ...
