Report of 16 July
Report by Benno en Thecla
In the morning we visit the social centre of the SOS children village. The children of the poorest families from the region are cared for by washing early in the morning, feeding and they get also lessons in social behaviour. The parents of these kids getting also support of the social centre. We get a good image about what the teachers and other helping hands of the social centre do for their children in the different classes. The classes are divided in different ages from one till five years.
After visiting the different classes, some of the children showed us a traditional dance. At the end we get under loud enthusiastic applause, each presented a lama wool Peruvian bag as thanks. How wonderful and overwhelming!
After eating a new recipe of soup from Jessica, which gets tradition, we go for visiting of two of the houses from the SOS village. Monica explains and translates if necessary at us. Each mother has nine children were se has to care for. We feel a verywarm atmosphere at each house. With this warm feeling we go to bed in our own house and feel warm asleep
