Note from Francie 5/18/12

On Monday William, the Ma’sai warrior, took us far away from the hills of Vermont as he talked to us about his life in Kenya showing us pictures and passing around artifacts such as a piece of lion fur. William told us about the scarcity of clean water and how he and his family drink from the same stream as the many animals who live on the Masai Mara Reserve. This sounded very familiar after our Art for Water project several weeks ago. And we are invited to help. A huge jug is waiting to receive your pennies and change on the table outside the office. Thank you to Linda, our art teacher, for arranging William’s visit and connecting us with people far away.

Thanks for the Books

Thanks so much to the family of Daniel Snyder for the wonderful book donation. These books have found new homes in the library, Judy’s & Jen’s rooms. Thanks Daniel!

Note from Linda

William will be flying back to  Kenya this Sunday taking many wonderful memories of his 5 weeks in Brattleboro. He will  be putting the money that you raised to support clean water to good use. In just two weeks you donated $127.00!. That change can make a real difference for the people of his village. Thanks so much for your support of such an important project. The ladies will be delighted when they find out how many of you purchased their beautiful beaded creations. Ashe oleng(thanks) Marlboro!

My Family by Zoey Zumbruski

My little sister likes chocolate ice cream
and makes a mess on her face
so it looks like she has a moustache.
Momma likes earrings.
Pink earrings that glow in the dark.
My daddy works a lot.
He gets a lot of boo-boos from hammers and nails.
I give him band-aids to make him feel
happy as a chimney with no fire.
My pappa likes to make
birthday cakes with me,
chocolate cakes
as sweet as vanilla.
Grandma hugs me
and holds me tight.
Her arms feel
soft as a child’s hair.
My family is great!
