All three groups had a brilliant day today. Group 1 enjoyed the fruits of their efforts in the kitchen this morning, and had a smal banquet at lunch time.
MENU
Starter: Gaeng Jieud Tom Leung (Clear soup with tofu/pork and a whole host of herbs vegetables and spices)
Main: Khao Pad (Egg fried rice with chicken and vegetables)
Dessert: Saa Koo Peak Kao Pode (Corn, coconut cream and tapioca)
Group 2 visited the Buffalo farm and enjoyed seeing the traditional way of rice farming, as well as getting interactive with the mud!
Group 3 had a busy day! They visited an orphange, a buddhist temple (with 306 steps!) and finally a trip to a local forest conservation program where they were able to plant saplings.
Dinner was at 6.30, so we had just enough time for half of year 6 to play a huge game of football, whilst the other half played capture the flag and poison ball. After a hot and sweaty hour (especially Mr Paddington) we had showers then ate another delicious meal. Finally, our already packed day was ended with a nigh time fun swim.
The teachers, having worked hard to tire the children out all day, were able to reap the benefits as many children insisted on turning lights out and falling asleep at least 20 minutes before official "lights out!"
What a brilliant first day.

Well, what a fantastic sounding day! Wish I could have some of that yummy sounding food! Well done in getting the kids to sleep early. Hope this happens again tonight. Continue having a great time. Nicolette S.
Looks like the kids are having a blast! By the way, can we see more photos of Mr.Cosgrove's group? Thanks!
Well, really enjoyed the Day 3 Pictures!! Just a couple of questions, I though rafting was meant to be on the raft not in the water? Secondly, how did the teachers manage to stay out of the MUD!? I think I will apply as a teacher next year so I can share in the fun times you all seem to be having. Well done and continue having fun.... Nicolette
