It's early days, but...
... once again I've awoken to a glorious sunny day here in Kenya. It seems I'm blessed to be visiting ALC now, as I hear snow is abound back in Blighty.

Sheena Sheena is about to become our latest volunteer. She flies out to Kenya on Wednesday 25th January and will arrive in Kitale the day after. She will take the small domestic flight to Eldoret where she will be picked up by Josphat and taken on to the school.

Jade's reflections

Having never been to Africa, let alone Kenya, I fully expected there to be a huge cultural gulf between the world I grew up in and the one I flew into on June 9th. What I found was much more complex and surprising than I could ever have anticipated.

I am still cataloguing the library books. At this point I'm up to 2007 and we have about 3000. The library is pretty well resourced with books covering a wide age range and subject base. The challenge now is space and storage. We need more shelves to house the books so that they can be properly categorised according to age/subject etc. We also could do with some of those book box things on wheels they have in the young children's sections of libraries and school books corners as the younger children need to be able to look through the books. Some smaller chairs and tables for the younger ones would be good too. I have, as you can see, given this maybe too much thought!
