Sabore is coming tomorrow!!!!!!!


See the artwork in the artist rendering for the preschool being built in Sabore's village?  Those are the artworks our students from 4 years ago made.  When Therese and Sabore saw the student's work they asked if they could keep them and bring them to Kenya to place in the brand new preschool once it was built.  It was so important to them it was included in the artist rendering for the new school!  How cool is that!  SFC artists work will be hanging in a preschool in a Kenyan village.  



I can hardly wait for tomorrow!  One of my favorite guest speakers will be on campus speaking with the 5th graders about the Maasai culture and his organization to build wells for the Maasai tribes in Kenya.  Only 5th grade students will be attending but all parents (any grade) are invited.  He comes back each year to talk with the 5th grade students as Mrs. Behrens and I spend a good chunk of time devoted to literature, art projects, and religion projects based around the Maasai tribe as well as other African countries that struggle with the daily task of fetching water to survive.

If you would like to read more about Sabore and his organization or if you would like to donate to his organization, you can find it here:  www.saboreswell.org

I hope to see some of you tomorrow!
