Food and weather

For dinner we had roast chicken and rice. It was a very nice dinner. We also have been sitting in the lounge chilling out with all the people staying at the centre. We have been eating loads of biscuits and sweets and just met a little tiny tortoise! Tomorrow we are going to 3 kids clubs and I hope we have lots of fun!

Weather
It was quite cold this morning but this afternoon it seems like the snow on the mountains has melted a bit – perhaps things will warm up – we have heard it is very hot in the UK and we haven’t even needed any sun cream.

Language schools

We paid a quick visit to Jeton’s language school and met some teenage girls who are learning English – we chatted with them about Life in Kosova and England. We then drove to Rahovec where Berti from Smile runs English classes twice a week.

After lunch we took part in Berti’s English class; about 20 children came and we did some English learning with them and then we played some English games for them to learn words that way. What’s the time Mr Wolf? We went down well as did musical statues. We told them the story of Noah. They were all very happy children and just wandered off together after the club; parents never seem to pick their children up here or mind where they are, it’s quite a nice relaxed feeling.

Little Girl

When we went to visit the little girl we found out that her uncles and her dad were given a 1/3 of the land each. But when the girl’s dad died, her uncles cast her, her mum and her brother out of the house, leaving them with a tiny shed next to the house, with a bunk-bed, a basket of food and a little cooker. They nearly burnt it down because the cooker was so hot. Also, whenever they got new things, the uncles from next door would just take it. The girl seemed very independent, even though she was 10 because her mum and brother went to hospital so she would have to do everything on her own. We are thinking of painting the inside of her house, because it was very dark and we would think it would brighten up their shed.

Visit to small house

There was a girl called Qerime and she lived in a tiny one room house with no lock on the front door. Her mum (who is a widow) was in hospital and her brother was visiting her in hospital so Qerime was on her own. We realised that she could read and say a lot of English although she was only ten. We were listening to her reading her work book from the school and we were amazed!
