The wall is now nearly completed! Can't believe the difference a week can make! Last week we had the nursery kids helping to clear the land and then we also had all of upper primary coming out toeach carry a stone from one side of the compound to the other. They all seemed to enjoy themselves and they saved the builders hours of time in moving stones! I don't think that health and safety in England would allow them to be doing this though!
It has amazed me that many of the builders are only wearing flipflops, or even bare feet. I just keep thinking how painful it would be if a stone was dropped on their foot.
Yesterday most of the day was spent removing a huge tree that was blocking the wall. It was massive and all they had to remove it with were axes and panga's! Then lots of strength to lift the huge trunk out of the ground. It was managed in the end!
