Weekly report for Peru

Here is a summary of our group on the ground.

Classes:
The group are now working with kids in summer school classes with Art and English. They started with four students and they now have 25 students. The girls in the group are doing the classes and the guys are working on the construction project, which is what they have asked for. The girls are really enjoying the classes. Sometimes they are a bit of a challenge as with 25 kids it can get a bit out of control but they are learning how to deal with the kids.

Construction:
The greenhouse is going really well. They are finishing the foundation and tomorrow they are starting on the adobe mud brick walls. As there is only two weeks left the group have decided to get to the school each day a little bit earlier so they can make sure to get the project finished. The foundations are always the hardest part of the project and take the longest.

Health:
All are fine with their health. None in the clinic to date!

Houses:
All are happy with their houses and the food. We just need to make sure that some of the families spend a bit more time with them to socialise and help with Spanish.

Spanish classes:
All going well and are happy with their classes and their teachers.

Tours:
Four went on the Inca Trail for four days to Machu Picchu and got back yesterday. They had a great time but are a little tired today. Jillian and Sharman are resting today and will get back to the school tomorrow.
