Well, there's still so much to catch up on and I'm now running a FULL 10 days behind with my commentary of what's happened - but there's been so much and I don't have much time to blog all the time. Plus I'm always shattered - think it's the heat. Plus having to try and speak, think and listen in Spanish a lot of the time doesn't half knacker the brain out!
Anyway, we have our first Club de Arte initiation tomorrow afternoon - aaaheeekke! We'll be in Fertisa - the only sector that neither of us has spent any time and neither of us knows anything about - useful! Sure it'll be fine, although we have been warned by a number of team members that the group is a bit mental, "inquieto" or troublesome and that most of the kids have problems concentrating. Also, Fertisa, like Isla T, is in the South of the City and one of the most dangerous of all the sectors. Plus, none of the kids even know that Art Club is starting back this week. Add this to the fact that the Family Worker who is meant to be supporting us with the sessions in this Sector, and helping keep a handle on the kids' behaviour as we don't have any existing relationship with them, got sacked on Friday - and we've got a recipe for an 'interesting' afternoon...ah fun fun!! (And we think UK employment laws and conditions are bad - Bienvenidos a Ecuador.)
Therefore, if you guys happen to be at a loose end between 8-10pm UK time please meditate or send some good vibes Fertisa's way to Helen and I - I think we may need them!
Love to all xxx
