Day 4

Today we went to a local public school. we met all the kids and got into groups of two and each group had three tour guides show them around the school. i had two girls that were 14 and 15 and a little 13 year old boy as my guides. They showed us their gardens and classrooms and such and explained their school system. after viewing the school we went into one big assembly room and they sang to us and welcomed us then we had morning prayer with them. we were sent off to eat our lunch with just our people to people group, but once finished we went with the kids that were our guides to their classes. All our my guides were in the same class so there was no problem there. First off we learn english and it was really cool to see how world wide the language is and such. They even took the time to teach us some of their slang words which was pretty amusing for them and fun for us. then there was math class, we helped them to solve their equations. then the teacher would call a group up to the board and try to solve it but if they got the answer wrong the whole group had to go for a run down the hall and back. we cut classes short for the day and got to go outside and play sports. i played vollleyball with the girls and all of the boys were playing rugby in the field with all the mud puddles. then it started raining.. so we went to the assembly hall and said our goodbyes and exchanged info to keep in touch. we then got on the coach and departed back for the hotel. it was an amazing day and surely one i will never forget with fiji students that i hope to stay in contact with forever.
