Some time past and several activities took place but could not be put on the blog due to the technology that failed the team. From now, the blog will be published every Wednesday. Let me just give you update on different activities that happened during this period.


Florence visit


Florence Ahlborne, a lady who is assisting the Omapitiroweyuva kids club and her sister, visited Opuwo in August. She met some of the kids at a church service where they welcomed her with a choir. They visited 2 volunteers at their homes and one teenage daughter that had to drop out of school due to pregnancy. She gave psychosocial support the daughter and one of the volunteer who just lost her child. The other volunteer whom she visited was Blaundina and her little Hope, who was 2 months by then. Florence gave bracelets to the children and these gift was very much appreciated.


Watching movies



The town of Opuwo experienced wind during the month of October and the children were forced to watch movies for 2 consecutive Fridays. Due to the large number of the attendance at the club, a movie does not require much space for movements as everyone will sit quiet and concentrates at the big screen.


Journals



It was time to make sure that every journal in the shelf has an owner and everyone has a journal. Some of the children left the club due to different reasons like changing of schools while some are not interested anymore. In the contrary, a large number of children joined the club this year and are really enjoying every Friday. It made them very much proud to have a journal of their own.
