Week 2 was a good one.

Second week under our belts. We remade the schedule last weekend and that made things flow better. Learners are getting used to teachers and the facility. The new peanut butter and banana sandwiches were a real hit! Curtains went up this week to divide the classroom spaces. These make a big difference. They really don't cut the sound, but they do make it so that there is no longer the visual distraction of the other class and what they are doing. The library is up and running and being really used!! We still have about 150 books to level, label and get out on the shelves.
Julian, our tennis coach, was able to get to Windhoek for a workshop this weekend. A nice donation from Bill Hess in Pocatello made this possible. He was very grateful and eager to attend.
Volleyball is a new addition to MYO this year. Aislinn and Lindsay are very enthusiastic instructors and have students "bumping" the ball control and direction.
Our new visitiblity has us with many students and parents who are asking how to get into the program. Some of our grades are not quite full, so we have been able to boost our ranks in this way.
