After another thunder-free night (thank God!) the day
started with the ear bleeding noise from the alarm at ridiculous o'clock.
Everyone clambered out of bed, tired yet motivated. Then...yay! Time for the
Bouncy Bus Bonanza, passing the famous wild monkeys on route. Breakfast
consisted of weird rice cake ball things and... surprise, surprise... CURRY!
Then followed more extravagant and varied lessons, ranging
from science to dancing to the YMCA. Then came another incredibly energetic
episode of 'The Hannah and Mikey Show' where Charlotte, Alice, Stu, Ryan,
Sophie and Chloe B all participated in the fun-filled games. Alice and Jevhan
had an emotional moment when a student gave them each a really sweet letter (cue:
awwhhhhh).
By mid-morning, the sun was beating down and we all began to
feel the effect; sweating buckets but drinking endless bottles of water. Some
enjoyed the spirited game of rounders, whereas most of the team watched from
the side line (in the shade). Others painted hand-print trees with the eager
children. Then came lunch...CURRY; the usual ratio of 3:1. We are, also, still
being haunted by a swarm of annoying flies. But Eden and Jevhan decided to
start ninja-chopping them. It didn't really go to plan...
Afternoon activites were mainly inside (woohoo!) so some of
us took the time to wind down. NOT! The kids were still as hyper-active as have
been throughout the week. Eden, Jevhan, Alice, Lily and Zach taught their group
of children the song 'In the Jungle' which didn't particularly go as planned, ending
in a mess of noise, but the kids still had a great time and that's what
matters.
In the afternoon session of 'The Hannah and Mikey Show'
volunteers from each team stood at the front and threw beanbags at a bottle,
with yet another twist. Blindfolds. Teachers from the school even joined in and
everyone had a blast. Although we had to end it when one unlucky child received
a bean bag to the head (joking).
Then we all started to calm down. The children all had free
play so most of the team sat in our shaded upstairs area and had a drink. After
preparing our resources for the following day,
the team gathered and awaited more curry.
Again.
Now we are off Sari shopping, travelling in Tuk-Tuks.

Another great blog - can't believe you're now over half way through. Kiran - delighted you like India so much but if you could possibly come back and do a few exams before you settle there would be much appreciated :-)
The desks really do look great - I will ask Jane if she wants to send the beavers the blog link. We are having a great holiday, jack was delighted that Man U won (just!) and loved the old Trafford atmosphere, the jury is still out on whether the de vere is as good as it used to be, the Pepsi max was closed due to the wind so you didn't miss that one!
Really pleased to see that the rain seems to be staying away and you can do the outside activities - hope it carries on. Have another great day tomorrow. X x x
Looks like your all having a great time, especially the students which is great! Good luck to everyone!
Send my love back to Megan:) she is dearly missed! X
