Of the pupils helped last year only three did not achieve 100% attendance.


In late November, an expedition was taken to the mainland in order to purchase the uniforms with money sent out.  Waiting til my arrival in January meant that the costs may have risen; also with the political situation moving around may be less relaxed than last year.  They also collected one of the speakers that had needed a repair, and obtained quotations for additional speakers that we plan to purchase when I go out in January.

2018 achievements and plans

Kids and Kayaks This organisation was born out of Jose Antonio's dream and the friendship we developed after he was my guide in Ometepe in 2015 and 2016. I obtained his services through Vapues Tours in 2015 and sought his expertise again in 2016 because he had been so helpful. He taught me about the life of the local people. Across the Atlantic ocean plans were formed through our shared passion to improve the lives of children in Urbaite and Santa Teresa on Ometepe Island, Nicaragua. This became Kids and Kayaks ( and later The Forgotten Children of the Land of Lakes and Volcanoes), a charity to improve the lives of local children's education and welfare. It is led by José Antonio Ruiz Hernandez in Nicaragua and Carolyn Susan Gibbs in England. In January 2018 I arrived with around £3000 donated by friends, family and local organisations. I brought a case of equipment and further equipment came in the containers of Peace and Hope, a registered charity also working in Nicara

The effect of the economic crisis

Image
 Work continues in Ometepe but on a less generous scale.  The economic downturn that we have experienced has had a significant effect on donations.  Few donations were received at Christmas this year and after holding two events, the coffee morning in July and the musical event in October, we did not have a Christmas event.  This was partially because of lack of energy on my part and partly because of being busy with a prospective move. Unfortunately the economy in Nicaragua has also been affected .  Prices are high and work is not easily available.  One of the young teachers we supported has been laid off.  Jordy has not yet got a teaching post despite the highest level of achievement but is seeing other opportunities through his work at a local tourist attraction.  His excellent English will be such an advantage.  Our aim was to improve prospects and this appears to be  the case for him. The October folk evening was great fun and raised around £500. The July sale brought everyone bac

More family outings.

On Wednesday and Thursday I had more outings with Marvin, Sylvia and Jordy. They are looking after me so well, have promised to cook and clean for me and look after me when I am an old lady. We have spent lovely times sitting in the rocking chair on their veranda talking, eating delicious food and going out together. Yesterday I left at 7am and at 7.30 we set off up the volcano with Marvin carrying his machete,  for snakes and other dangers in the forest. It was a pretty steady climb and we met workers, cows, horses en route. There were some good views. We walked up to the mirador,where we spent some time just enjoying the views and Marvin chatted to the person working there.   Some of the path was dusty and slippery but coming down was worst. I decided not to go further as it was a bit arduous and we had enjoyed the views. When we got back home Sylvia gave me coffee and offered me lunch. And Jordy got ready for his afternoon school session. Later I headed
