News from the Sebeta


NEWS FROM SEBETA SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND

We have received some news about the Messi room from Kefale, one of the 4 teachers in the Messi room and our contact person at Sebeta school:
MESSI ENTO FELIZ ROOM (“I FEEL HAPPY” ROOM)
SEBETA SPECIAL SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND
SEBETA (OROMIA)-ETHIOPIA
Kefale sends us a report with photos and informs us that the 37 children who do have vision are making progress in their literacy classes so they will be able to start regular school when they return to their home towns, and 60 children who are totally blind are attending the Messi room each day where they are stimulated through play and learning everyday activities.

The Messi opens in the afternoons and on Saturday mornings but is also being used by other students accompanied by their teachers who go in the mornings during their class time and take part in various activities which is a good thing.
There are 118 students taking part in the activites in the gym.
In the second photo you can see Kefale organising the students arriving at the Messi.
