Emma: My time in Nepal has been amazing. I have really
enjoyed learning about early childhood practices here and their culture. I
loved being able to be part of the Saturn Classroom. On Friday, my class made
me a book of their artwork and showered with me with hugs. During a small
farewell party with MotherCare, my teacher gifted me a scarf and talked about
how they appreciated our time at the school. They were so kind and generous. My
favorite part of being at the school was seeing how they brought the culture of
their country into my class. I was able to partake in meditating, Nepali
writing, and song/dance. It has been such a great experience and I am so glad
to have had the opportunity.
Here I am helping children work on their writing.
Kelsy: I can’t believe that my time here in Nepal is done!
It was very hard to say goodbye to my wonderful teachers and children at
MotherCare International Preschool. This past week I have enjoyed playing on
the playground, singing songs, and playing with a cornstarch and water mixture.
I have learned so much about Nepali culture, teaching, and friendship during my
time here, and for that I am so grateful. After school on Friday, our teachers
hosted a goodbye party for all of us interns. Everyone had such kind words to
say about us, and we also received gifts! I am overwhelmed by the amount of
kindness I have received here in Nepal. Our friends at Sacred Summits Tour Company
also gave us a fantastic send off by hosting us for dinner, magic, and music.
Thank you to everyone who helped me get here to Nepal. It has truly been an
unforgettable experience.
We spent most of our recesses filling toy teapots
with sand and pretending to drink it!
Here we are at circle time singing “Twinkle Twinkle” and
“Jelly in the Bowl.”
