| The students were just a little excited for the party to start... |
Last week was busy in the school as the students finished up the semester. Each grade spent time reviewing and then taking exams over all the material the students studied this year. The day each of the students looked forward to though was Friday. The kids talked all week about Friday because that was the day there would be a HUGE Christmas party in the school! The school staff decorated for the party and the students prepared different songs, dances, and skits to share with everyone. Even the preschool students got up in front of everyone to sing a song! The kitchen staff and teachers all worked together to prepare a huge feast for the students. Each child was served a big plate of rice and beans with sauce, chicken, macaroni salad, and because it was an extra special day they even got to drink pop! The only thing that could have topped them getting to eat meat at the party was the presents that each child received! Oh if you could have only heard the students as they saw the boxes of gifts get carried into the room. They literally squealed with excitement! The school staff picked out gifts for each grade and gender and they did an absolutely amazing job! The children left the school Friday knowing that they were beyond special and so very loved. The younger kids in Chambrun are still talking about "that day Santa brought them a present." As I watched all of my little friends throughout the party I couldn't help but be thankful for each of their school sponsors. Each sponsor makes it possible for my little friends to get an excellent education, to be fed a meal during each school day, and to have a party that celebrates just how amazing they are. Friday was the perfect ending to the semester and start of Christmas break for the students and staff in the school!
