Although the school and its supplies are very modest the kids really make the best of every day and come to school with an open mind, enthusiasm, and readiness to learn!

The kids join us for a ride home in the CCS van. We all pile in “dala dala” style (daladala’s are the local form of bus transportation consisting of a van that ~30 people are fitted into, where 11 would normally sit... but it is very cheap).
