Education Day photos


The Islamic girls' school choir, very fetching in headscarves, teeshirts and trainers


Family drama. Quite why "grandad" had one trouser leg rolled up we never found out. Maybe he was a freemason....?


Presenting awards. Yvonne, our Maire, is in the green teeshirt, next to the "men from the ministry"


The prize winners look ecstatically happy.....


To be given a cow is a huge reward. A fine cow like this would cost RwF200,000 in the markets.


The elderly couple who were given the cow as a reward for their work in raising orphaned children. If you double click on this picture you will see the old man has a superb walking stick. She may look like an old granny buy, by golly, she was a feisty old lady!


The headteachers with their certificates. Prominent in the front is Melchior, the head of Kibanda School. Kibanda is our best performing school this year, yet it is tucked away in a fold of the mountains, remote and almost forgotten!
