Parachute Fun

We were both sat the other day deep in thought trying to think of new exciting games we could play with the kids making use of the large outdoor spaces we have. Then it came to us… ‘Why not use the gigantic parachute we brought with us from the UK that’ll be fun.’ Wow! What a success! We played shark attack, cat & mouse and made the best mushroom ever! We have decided to leave the parachute here with the JUCONI staff so that they can continue using it for camping trips and parties etc.

Clay people & Iguanas

We are both very proud to tell you that we organised a successful outing with our Fertisa art club. We took 15 children to a museum, Museo Municipal, in the centre of Guayaquil where we looked at Pre-Hispanic artefacts such as beautiful clay bowls, vessels and little clay people. We then went to a park nearby which is home to a large amount of Iguanas, Terrapins and scary looking squirrels.
The children had different drawing tasks to do in preparation for their next project with involves making sculptures.
We were so impressed, as the children were on their best behaviour. The museum staff commented on how good they were, which meant a lot to us and the children themselves.

Dusty Days

On our return from Mexico, we found the community center in Fertisa covered in a thick layer of mud and dust. We knew the time had come for a Spring Clean.
With the help of our friend Giovanni, after two hours of scrubbing and hosing down everything in our path the room was sparkling clean with a fresh lavender scent.
