Im just about to finish the first day in Gigdev and today... well not much has happened. My mentor was only really half here and the only thing I know about is that I will be completely incapable of helping with sewing and doing haircuts.
Tomorrow will be better though, in the morning I will be doing literacy, numeracy and computing (there is a place in town where we take the children). There is also a nursery here where some of the girls in Gigdev can keep their children whilst they learn how to sew etc. I also asked why there aren't many english lessons and was told that there are not enough teachers so I might help teach English in the afternoons when not much is happening.

Hello I'm on my break from working at Maltiti Child Foundation. It's a really great organisation that focuses on the development of children. I visited some of the schools they support as well as a school they built in a nearby village to stop the children having to walk one a half miles to school. The conditions of the schools I saw were shocking when I think of my school at home. Later I will be going to the afterschool activities they run for the children. I'm not sure exactly what I'll be doing as I am first getting an idea of all the various projects MCF run. I really hope I can be of help here.
