This made my motivation and confidence skyrocket. The first school year was accompanied by many turbulent times, difficult incidents and some unforeseen surprises, which sapped my strength and nerves. I am all the more pleased that everything has now turned 180 degrees. Until now, my project partner Elhadji and I are experiencing the exact opposite this year.

The last weeks of the kindergarten year were an intense time, but also something special for all of us, as we practiced songs and dances for the school's closing party. The children showed a lot of joy and I myself enjoyed this time together very much, savoring the special relationship I have with the children, before my annual stay in Switzerland. To participate in the lessons, to support the children as well as the teachers, by helping to create a versatile learning environment, is not only the most beautiful part of my project work, but also the most important. |
