‘Each morning sees some task begin,

Each evening sees it close;

Something attempted, something done,

Has earned a night’s repose’

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Arrived earlier at the school today to attend the church service the students have every Wednesday morning – a passage from the bible was discussed accompanied by some singing and praying. Following the service we returned to our classroom and started class. First was Religious & Moral Education (or R.M.E.) and after break – Math. I helped a bit with the class today and performed my usual marking duties.

The library was especially fun today. About halfway through our time there, Samuel gathered us all in a group and read us a story, Edward in the Jungle, followed by a fable about a Frog and a Rat. Samuel is so great with the kids – he pulled us all into the story with him. He was very interactive and used many expressions to help illustrate the story. Absolutely amazing.
