The day started with going to the local kindergarten and school to distribute toys we had brought from Sweden. When we arrived to the kindergarten with our big box of toys, the kids just went crazy. They were running around us and gathered around the box to see what is in. Then the teacher came and started to hit all the kids with a big broomstick to calm them down. After we had given them the toys, some of us started to play with the kids. It was a lot of fun :)
Thereafter, we headed to the school where we saw how lectures are given and distributed pens to all of the students.
Jackie’s mission was to design a CSE sign for the Seaweed Center. Mikael, a carpenter from Denmark will help to carve the sign in couple of days.
The construction of drying racks continued throughout the whole day.
In the afternoon we finally had a chance to show the women how to use the racks at the Seaweed Center.
We also gave a general overview of the concept of the Seaweed Center and showed them around the facility. Everybody in our class was so overwhelmed to see the women for the first time in the Seaweed Center. The first impression from women was that they enjoyed being there and are very grateful for the effort we had made.
