Our Easter pics

 Ruth' B'day, looking beautiful
 Richard's b'day, looking smart
 Easter carols on Thursday, all schools presented, each class with part of the Easter story. Nursery school with the triumphal entry to Jerusalem
 Jesus washing the disciples feet
 the twelve disciples (and Jolly) at the last supper
 the crucifixion, well done by P4
 Secondary students ready to dance. Overalls seem to be a fashion item
 Dancing to 'Lord I Lift Your Name On High'
 finale, all schools on stage
 to sing 'Christ arose.
 Friday the walk of the cross. Starts in the garden and at each stop there was a reading, a prayer and a song. The band played as we walked
 at the clinic
 at the gate
 by the teacher's quarters
 carrying it up
 final stop before church
 we finished an hour and a half later at the church. Friday night was a DVD for all students P1 and above in the church (with popcorn)
 Saturday night Quiz night for the secondary students, about fifty pupils and a fun night
 one of the teams working hard to find answers
 Saturday morning was spent painting hard boiled eggs (about 450 of them). On Sunday, after Sunday School it was time to hunt for the eggs. A.Anna-Saar is helping Damaris to find one
 others looking hard for theirs
Sunday night was a barbeque at the church for all. A real party atmosphere with dancing, singing
 Hanajah showing his dancing style
 Rhode as happy as ever
 on the mats where the young children were served their supper
and ice cream too.
Today, Monday there were activities for the children during the day so we are rather tired now.
Time for bed, God Bless
