Chilamate School

Here are pictures of the school where we are working while we are here.
Walking from the eco lodge to the Chilamate school

A sign we passed on our walk "Knowledge is Power."

Another sign we liked "Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game!"

Another sign encouraging staying off drugs.

Dining area

Garden where they grow food for lunch. The government gives 50 cents a day per child, which isn't enough to pay for their lunch, so they are growing food to help.

Davis showing us the playground we are adding improvements to during our time here.

The school computer lab. They have a computer lab teacher once a week which is the only day the lab is open.
