Nursery School Competition

I love the little kids. They are so funny. And even more funny when there are all sorts of kids from many different villages trying to do skits, songs, and dances. Last week our LCH Nursery School participated in the first EVER Nursery Music, Dance, Drama competition. The Baby and Tops class (basically preschool and kinder) loaded up in the van for the 2 minute drive to a neighboring school. Despite the short distance, the kids were so excited to get to go off property and be among other kids their age. I am happy to report that in the sub-county level, LCH ranked number one in all areas!!! So, tomorrow (Thurs) they are competing at the district level. I will let you know how it goes. Seeing as this is the very first year for the competition for nursery, it will end at the district level, but they hope to go all the way to nationals next year.

There was a huge celebration after winning at sub-county. We loaded the kids up in two cars, which alternated in honking their horns passing through the village road to get to LCH. As we arrived, the cars did a victory lap as staff members and children came running out to see what was happening and hear all the nursery kids chanting, "Winna's" (=winners). It was great. The nursery kids were lifted into the air and really had something to feel proud about.


Funny faces...

Another school doing a dance. I only took video of our kids and internet is too slow to post them now.
