After teaching from 8-10.40am, teachers are hungry! During the break until 11.40 tea and mandazi (like a doughnut) are available, and this provides a forum to share a few jokes and news/updates from the headmaster as we sit round talking together. Lessons continue until 2pm when the students have other activities such as cleaning, debates or games like volleyball and football.
This month (June) most of the school are on holiday, with just the form four students present doing their mock 'O' level exams. Kevin decided to take the opportunity to study Kiswahili for three weeks, and I have been staying with him most of the time, traveling to Kilolo once a week to teach Old Testament at the Bible School. Next week we will both take a break at the coast at Bagamoyo - the place where I was when we started talking together on the internet!
