First lunch club





Today we had our first lunch club at Maria Fidelis School. We met Fiona the art teacher, who hosts the club. We were in the art room where we looked at the amazing screen printing. The girls had been doing and chatted to some of them while the girls who were coming to the club grabbed lunch from the canteen. 

When the girls arrived we introduced ourselves and talked about CADFA’s work. Dunja asked what they knew about Human Rights and Palestine and they talked about hearing about the war in Gaza.
We had a look at some photos from Claudia’s time as an EVS volunteer in Abu Dis. We showed them pictures of the Wall, checkpoints, children in their twinned school UNRWA and in the Community Centre in Abu Dis to give them a rounded view of life, especially school life in Abu Dis. Then we had a look at the school blogs and showed them how to find them online.

At the end we talked about CADFA’s UN Children’s Day celebration*, because we want to prepare something next Wednesday to share in the celebration in Kentish Town Community Centre.  We are really looking forward to next week!
