Celebrating April With Fun in the Sun!

Children of Kibera Project Coordinator, Japheth Ochieng, gathered together all CoKF scholars and members of the new Red Rose Girls' Club to celebrate the end of April break. All students, plus interns Joscelyn, Jackie, and Ann and Teacher Rose, joined together at Nairobi's Arboretum Park. The older and younger students bonded over fun activities, such as football matches, hand games, and songs. We played endless rounds of "Concentration", name games, and circle games that require everyone to "shake what their mamma's gave 'em". Lunch included a delicious spread of pilau and beef, salad, biscuits, and juice. The older students even brought dishes from home to share with the whole group. The last hour of the picnic was occupied by more hand and circle games, which sent everyone home bursting with CoKF pride!
