Here are some first images of the school where I am teaching. They are like school girls everywhere. When they are on break, they are giddy and have a lot of energy. They play games and braid each other’s hair. They chase one another and then when the person being chased is caught the pursuer has not idea what to do, so they laugh and hug. And sometimes, there are photobombs involved.
P.S. Apologies if I have not been as attentive as usual to people liking my posts, especially new viewers. It is a rather intense schedule here.
=^_^= we aren’t going anywhere, when you can, you can,meanwhile we are enjoying hearing about your wonderful new adventure
Thank you so much.
Cheers to you and your teaching. Just made a donation to the school.
Thank you so much. You have no idea what it means for a child here to grow to be someone who can earn a better living than in the market. Cheers
I love the photo of the running group….especially the teacher,or aide, with the magic herding hands ! ; )
Thank you William. There is a lot of energy here.
Wow! First day… I am already tired of school. I can’t wait to finish it. Your photos are so full of life, Christopher
Cheers! 🙂
Well they have been in school for a few months. It was MY first day. They get a big vacation around Christmas. Like our summer break. Cheers 🌞
Ok, now I understand :))
The images are so nice.
I like action shots which are full of activities.
Thanks Chris for sharing them with us!
Cheers!!!
There is a lot of action in that courtyard. Thank you Soheir. Is it like that at schools there also?
Yes
But the uniform of the girls is somehow different…it also differs from school to another.
Cheers!
Uniforms differ here also. You can tell which school a girl attends for he uniform she wears. What I can’t get over is the noise in the courtyard…It’s like working out on the tarmac at the airport. But it is a happy sound. Cheers! =)
Oh giddy little school girls make me giddy! I was a Pre-School teacher and loved every minute of it. I retired after 25 years!
Your photos show the happiness they have being there!
And we all understand that you are working a tough schedule and wifi may be a problem too. We aren’t going anywhere!
Thank you so much Nancy. I did not realize you had been an educator. Cheers!
This is a private school? Their uniforms are just like my Catholic school uniforms!
No this is how public schools are here. They also have a prayer at the beginning of the day. Different country, different rules. Cheers!
Oh, my!
Very lovely pictures and girls! 🙂 First day of school is always fun, I remember that well 😉 I´m sure you´ll have a great time there! Cheers! 🙂
First day for me. They have been going for a while now. Cheers.
Best of luck! 🙂 Thank you for your work. Rich or poor, children should be treated equally and given the best effort if we want this planet to have a future.
No worries about being not too attentive. We all do what we can 🙂
Thank you. I appreciate it. Cheers.
Typical kids – love the uniforms! Don’t worry about us!
Thank you. They are a pretty cool group. The afternoon students are a bit more subdued. They were often working in the morning and it is hot as heck.
No apologies needed. You are pursing a dream and making a difference. 🙂
Thank you, Judy. Cheers!
I LOVE these photos, Christopher – whizzed me right back to my early schoolyard years – what joy to see this. 😀
Thank you. It brought me back to my school days as well. Cheers!
These photos are so full of energy . . took me back to my school days. . we had the same kind of uniform. 😀
