Regular night meetings before bed in prep for the following day's events

Day2 On our way to the local schools!

Still could not get enough of medan traffic, you need 6 eyes to drive here!

Our objectives includes student interaction and teaching english.

Here we are at the school

And do they love balloons...

The primary classrooms

here, we make the balloons as prizes

more balloons!

it's a hit with the kids, not to mention interactive, the one with the correct answer gets a balloon prize.

where the children have to guess & answers posed to them in english

Thats for the primary kids!

a singing performance!

Hangman games with secondary classes

For the secondary students

we play largely knowledge based english games like trival (wheel of fortune) & hangman

Ending with a christmas song before school dismissal.

Visit to the local wet market

And look what we found!

Dinner that night was at the rotary president residence

where we had karaoke and some partying with the elders

a memorable night!

ending with a gift of appreciation to the president herself

including the elders themselves!

besides entertaining them in the common area

our job there is to give the whole place a clean

their basic grooming are cared for

including the washing of their feets...

while the rest of us went about sweeping, wiping and mopping the premises

but the rewards at the end are priceless...

encountering years of dust, lizard waste, dried urine, all packaged with a trademark smell...

it's tedious cleaning up a very run down place

it's a free old folks home, run purely on donations

Day3, old folks home visit in the rural areas

we had a rewarding meal at the end of the long day...
