EASTER PARTY AT RUHANDAGAZI SCHOOL FOR DISABLED


Children playing football, throwing ball, skipping rope and watching in books is just some of the things that happened as we arranged an Easter party at Ruhandagazi School for Disabled. The event took place Friday the 6th of April as the children were supposed to go home for Easter. Some children didn’t have the money for doing so, and it was mainly for those we planned to have the party.


As the afternoon and preparation went on we got a message from one of the teachers: “the more you delay, the more children it will be…” :) The word about us going to have a party spread to the neighbors and they also appeared. I think there were supposed to be 20-30 children, but I think it was more like 50. But we had fun!

2 girls from Norway visited us for the weekend, and also helped out with the party. Simi and Helga – former Act Nowers – which were in Kampala two years ago. Deborah (a girl from England that’s here for about 1,5-2months and shares the house with us) also helped out. We played with the children and gave them some food we had prepared. Many children had to share both plates and cups, since there was a lack of those. But I don’t think they minded.


It seemed that the children really enjoyed it and so did we.
