Today was Wednesday day off and it was an action packed day
we had our weekly Hindi lesson - rickshaw conversations
Then it was time for our day trip with the other PV's the old and the new
First it was onto Ishwari. Ishwari is an organisation Sangam works with where girls from villages go and learn skills like sewing and embrodiery and cooking
Skills to help them when they are married and need a skill to help earn money for the family
When I was at Sangam two years ago I helped paint the stage with with waari art
Then we had lunch at Tulapur - this is very pretty where three rivers meet
there is a picturesque temple and we had these amazing bajies - onion and potato
Then it was onto Anand Gram
Anand Gram was the site of our Project Awhina two years ago where we painted four of the school's classrooms
It was a strange feeling going back to Anand Gram as we spent so much time and energy there
It was good to see the improvements especially the new dining hall
It was strange to see the classrooms as last time we saw them they were all sparkly and new
they have lasted well and that was good to see
