Silent Voices

How excited we were!!

‘Silent Voices’ was present on the District Day for People with Disabilities, Women, and Youth! and not just ‘present’ we performed a song and a poem to the delegates!!

The invitation came on Wednesday, and the function was to be on Saturday… not much time left, more over  the children had just gone home from the school break!! But!! we really saw a great chance of making some noise for our brand new organisation here… so with some quick phone conversations we decided to attend with as few as 10 children and do whatever we could manage. (Parents were ‘left out’ there we had no means to communicate to them in just some days!).

Me – I had to run to town to transform an old bed sheet into a banner for use in the Parade which was noted in the programme. The County Coordinators of Sheema at Ishekye Primary school had the task of keeping children at school on Friday – when they were to come and collect their reports – and then to practice a performance in just one evening!!

But all in all: WE WERE THERE!! we performed and we left an unforgettable impression on the delegates and general public!

Let me try to add the photos on this blog – do not forget… we are new… even here on the blog… everything is a big adventure!
