Kouluintoa ja -iloa School Enthusiasm and Joy
A 100 schoolbags are waiting to be filled. The people in the village and Dilip's relatives were an excellent help. Two Danish tourists were also involved in the activity.
Exercise books were transported to the Rathgama village by a scooter.
Using these exercise books, each pupil will create his or her own textbook, and it is true that when you are writing or even drawing by yourself, learning becomes easier.
There was a long queue when bags were distributed. All recipients were recorded with their grade and other information.
Bursting with excitement, the children were waiting for the school day to begin.
Parents accompany their children to school.
In the first group there were 52 children present. Another teacher will join the team in addition to this English teacher.
The fellow who carried out the printing work of our bags turned up beside us in the traffic, and so we managed to order a few additional bags for the children who could not come to the distribution occasion. By team-work things run smoothly :)
Once again, we thank you, our donors and supporters. Without you this would not have succeeded!

Kesä talven keskellä Summer in the Depth of Winter
Pohjolassa lumen keskellä on mukava ajatella, että muutaman viikon päästä matkustaa kouluja ja kesää katsastamaan.
Koronavuosien takia on ollut pitempi tauko matkoissa sinne kauas, mutta yhteydet puhelimitse ovat olleet sitäkin tiuhempia.
Koulujen lukuvuoden vaihtuminen on takana ja oppilaat ahkeroivat taas. Seuraava pikku loma on huhtikuussa, kun koittaa maan oma uusi vuosi.
Viime viikolla saatiin hankittua 100 reppua ja muita koulutarvikkeita uuden kouluvuoden alkajaisiksi. Yksi reppu oli maksanut 2350 Lr eli noin 5-6€. Hinta on noussut huimasti kuten kaikki muutkin hinnat. Aiempina vuosina (ennen koronaa) reppu maksoi noin2-3€.
Here in the
North, in the middle of snow, it is nice to think that, after a few weeks, I
will travel to see how the schools are doing and to get a taste of summer.
Due to the corona years, there has been a longer gap in travelling there, far away, but contacts by phone have been ever more frequent.
The turn of the school year is behind and the pupils are working hard at school. The next short holiday is in April when the country's own New Year is at hand.
Last week we managed to get a 100 schoolbags and other school supplies for the start of the new school year. One bag cost 2350 Lr, i.e. about 5-6 €. The price has gone up drastically as have all the other prices. In earlier years (before corona) one bag cost about 2-3 €.

Tilanne rauhoittunut Calmer Days
The president has been replaced and protests have been silenced. But, of course, the country is still strained by the economic misery, both on the community and individual level. Fuel is available for vehicles but it costs so much that not many can afford it … because there is no work. Everybody needs food and you must use your imagination and think carefully how to get everything you need. Coconuts, papayas, bananas, chilies and other gifts of nature growing on yards or naturally help in acquiring food. The employment situation has improved slightly, but there are still a lot of problems before the situation will really be restored. As in other countries, there are still corona cases, fortunately milder ones, but in higher numbers. It occasionally prevents the school from operating for a while, but luckily children have energy for those days when they can go to school.
Also, the food aid provided for our village's old people's home brought much joy and warm thoughts on both sides 💓
This time the meal consists of rice, chopped herbs, lentil curry (sambol), pappadam and tunafish. The old people themselves take part in preparing the food, each according to one's strength.
