Visit to Living-In School, Nekkalam

Yesterday, Parimi Uncle took us to Nekkalam, where they are building a new school in a mango orchard. They call it the Living-In School. It is meant to be an operating farm school for high school students.

Here we are on the drive there. It takes about 45 minutes to drive there. We had to stop for a train crossing.




On the way there, we saw a group of monkeys cross the road. That was fortunate, because we have promised the kids monkeys, but have not seen any. We took a photo, but you can't really see anything.




Here is the site of the mango orchard school. You can see that it's still under construction, but it is in a beautiful location, and the architecture looks really nice.








The site is surrounded by these beautiful hills.









Yesterday, being Christmas, there was no school for the kids. And today is Sunday. So last night we watched a movie then played games with the kids here. Here we are playing "Wig Out."
