We drove to the L village school where activity day was held on Saturday for character development. Our fan club ran out along the way yelling Mzungu. We certainly felt like royalty. At the school, Magazi taught while I wrote on the chalk board and the other girls read the scripture. The lesson this week was on Nutrition. We talked about how every person needed to eat a balanced diet of carbohydrates, proteins and vitamins. Most of them have a diet of porridge for breakfast, maize corn for lunch and pocha (rice) for dinner. This school has planted a collard green patch out back to provide vitamins for their meals. When we were finished we went out back to the feeding area where all the children at the school get a balanced lunch of pocha, beans and greens. At least they get one balanced meal a day.
