| “We thank God for allowing us to complete another month, full of blessing, the month of May was full of many adventures, but above all, a lot of learning in classes for all students.” —ROHI Staff. ROHI Highlights this month: * Both staff and students celebrated Arbor Day by cleaning up the ROHI grounds, planting a variety of plants, and preparing trenches to divert water for the rainy season * Students of all ages studied different professions and dressed up in representation of their desired career * Mother’s Day Celebration—most of the ROHI households are run by hardworking mothers who work scavenging at the municipal dump. The celebration included a church service, games and lunch served on site, as well as provisions for each mother to take home. * A team from the US spent a week serving at ROHI, working on a variety of projects, including building much-needed tables for the kids to eat at, and doing crafts and games with the students. The last day they took the students to a water park, which the students thoroughly enjoyed. (The tables have also been a popular place to hold class outside and enjoy a little breeze since it is the hottest time of the year and quite hot inside.) |
