Top: Children singing with Marian. Centre: Children all gathered together in Elinghen Village Hall. Bottom: Children, grouped together and mixed up (English/French/Boys and Girls) all doing prepared activities around the table. |
As you may already be aware, we had a highly successful day in Elinghen with the children from Ferques; both these villages belong to the same commune and share resources.
It was a varied day and included quite serious desk-bound activities to encourage communication, general running around and "letting off steam", a sing-song with Marian Bohling who is a bi-lingual resident of Ferques followed by an introduction to cardiogoal, a new sport that is rapidly gaining popularity with the youngsters.
Altogether a highly educational day for all the children which we hope to repeat next year, sufficient funds permitting.
