A Field Trip to Remember

Posted on Sunday, November 8, 2009 in The Adventure!

What a day!

Many of you will remember the video we made that focused on the heart-rending living conditions of the Kwe Ka Baung students (on our September 26th posting). From the moment we met these children and teens, we’ve been planning a field trip for them. Yesterday we took 60 students, their teachers, and headmaster out of the city, into the country and went swimming in a reservoir.  Because Kwe Ka Baung boasts a student population of 420, we’ll take 7 field trips before the end of July in order to give them all the same chance to enjoy the fresh air and countryside.

The students on our field trip were Grade 10-12’s.  We bought fried chicken and sticky rice in the market and used the school vehicles to transport these teens.  With the headmaster’s permission, we’ve taken a number of pictures. Pictures are worth a thousand words.

Take a look!
