Good progress is being made on the construction of the first Kids for Kids Kindergarten in Abu Nahla village in Darfur. The walls are completed and the windows and doors have now been fitted - see the attached photographs. These were contributed by the Ministry of Education in a most welcome gesture of support. Kids for Kids always seeks to develop partnerships which enables the funds which we raise to go further and to help more people in the villages in Darfur. The community have requested a verandah to be added to the building to provide valuable outdoor space and an additional teaching area for the children and we are now in consultation with architects to find the most useful but cost effective design. The kindergarten will have two latrines and these will be the first latrines in the village and hopefully will act as an incentive for families to build their own. The educational toys, musical instruments, chairs and tables, blackboards, art materials and sports equipment are being ordered. We are also finalising the design of the uniform which is going to be a dark blue and yellow tabard with the Kids for Kids logo on it. There is a considerable buzz in the village as the community looks forward to the opening of the kindergarten.
