Day Two at APCA Orphanage


Our second day at APCA was as delightful as the first. The children study and speak English well. They are very proud of how they speak and are very eager to learn.
We had the young children tear, cut and decorate leaves. We wanted to teach them to use natural indigenous materials to make art.We then connected the leaves with small twigs and carried the piece of 'Land Art' to the water.It was placed in the water by the children. As it began to rain we explained that the rain was now a part of the 'temporary' art.After morning classes lunch was served. The children help bring the large vats of rice and soup to the school house where it is served.There is not a table or place for the children to sit while they eat. APCA is hoping to build an outdoor structure with tables soon. It will cost $800. Any takers?

After lunch we continued with photography lessons.
