August 15 - Day 3 It was another busy work day today. We finished painting the cafeteria (except for the window trim), the wall around the school, and most of the addition. We should be able to finish up tomorrow morning. Zach's team continued with clearing weeds around the school and helped distribute food and backpacks to the students. Each student received a one month supply of rice, sugar, noodles, soy sauce, and oil. It does not look like a month's worth of food to us, but they are used to eating a lot less food than we do. They also each received a Catalyst Foundation backpack filled with school supplies, flip flops, and a gift from the US. The refrigerator for the cafeteria was delivered today and the electrician was putting in the wiring this afternoon. The eating area outside made progress as well - the concrete is almost finished being poured. It is a time consuming process to mix the concrete because it is done in a machine that is turned by hand and then has to be loaded into a container to dump it. It would be so much easier if we could have a cement mixer like in the US mix it and pour it. The school children also had an opportunity to pitch in today by painting trash cans shaped like penguins. Now that the trash around the school has been cleaned up they will use these to keep the school clean of debris.
