HELLO AND GOODBYE TO ABU DIS BOYS SCHOOL

Today was the last day for me at Abu Dis Boys School. For the past three months I have really enjoyed working with the students here who are full of ideas and have been so welcoming. I would have liked to have had more sessions with them, but due a combination of the teachers strike, clashes and storm Alexa last week, I have not been there for a while. Now the school must catch up on work that has been missed and prepare for exams now until the end of January. Instead we will try to organise extra classes in Darasadaqa.

Whilst saying "goodbye" to Abu Dis Boys, it was also a time to say "hello" to the new volunteers in Abu Dis. I'm sure that Lawson and Robert will do great work at this school and be welcomed too.
