FW: Unpacking the goodies from St. Andrew's

<<HPIM5181.jpg>> T <<HPIM5194.jpg>> he Delta Airlines lady was in a
good mood because she ignored my overweight luggage! I told her that it
was school supplies for Honduras. The teachers truly felt like
Christmas had arrived in January. They had everything on display all
day to enjoy. The children walked by and just couldn't get over all the
stickers! Thank you, everyone!
Their school day starts at 7:30 and ends at 1:30. Most of the children
are car-pooled in from nearby towns. As I said, we are in a remote area
with one near-by town, Pena Blanca.
Supplies are scarce, and the teachers buy what little crafty things they
do with their own money. The children are adorable, and really do quite
well with their English. Most teaching is done in English.
