VaaO episode 13: 01/04/2017- 'Plan for party day + Movie → FUN!'

Our main aim today was to plan the party day next week because unfortunately our plan for the day out to Boudhanath was cancelled :( We planned to order pizza and drinks and have a mini party with all the children at the orphanage since it will be the last day for this course (bronze level of DOE- service category). Additionally, we’ll distribute notebooks, pens, pencils, etc to all the kids next week. We distributed the tasks between the six of us, so everyone gets an equal chance to participate. Today, there were a few minutes left of the previous movie. After finishing watching the movie we all had to plan for next week and also today we needed to go at 12- an hour early. Because of this, we decided to put on another movie for the next 30 mins which were remaining. We all managed to successfully decide next weeks work and split it between us!

I am looking forward to the party next week but heartbreakingly it will be our last day with the kids. The kids were an inspiration for us and the fact that they are always enjoying and smiling even though they don’t have their parents really touches me deep. They don’t show the fact that they are orphans. If you think about it parents are the biggest thing someone needs, they play a vital role, and those kids don’t have that. This course of 4 months also taught me many things like: Creative ways to engage children and being patient with them. Also through this active involvement with a team of six at the orphanage, I have honed my leadership skills. We all have successfully met our goal of bringing a smile on their face :) We’ll miss you!
