School opening day

This week sees the start of a new academic year in Kenya and our children from Happy House were eager to get back after their long holiday.
The opening assembly was led by our scouts who marched for the flag raising ceremony.
Mama Sue welcomed everyone and told them about all the work that had been done to improve their surroundings during the holidays.
The new computer suite is almost completed and additional toilets have been added.
Our school is run on a non-profit basis but takes some fee-paying students to help sustain the school and the high standard of education it offers.
Mama welcomed new starters and asked our kids to make them welcome and the show them the caring and sharing way we do things at Happy House.
Uncle Ronald, our social worker, and Mr Isaac, head teacher, also had some welcome words for the students.
Papa Dave, also known as Radio Watamu, kept them up to date with the weekend football scores!
Happy times, kids.
