“Let them eat cake”

For the last 4 weeks a team of 14 physio-therapists and nutritionists from University College Dublin Volunteers Overseas have been at the hospital. During this time they ran a 2 week clinic / camp for   children with cerebral palsy and their carers, went on outreach work to the local communities, worked in the Rehabilitation Ward and repainted some of the buildings at the Hospital’s Primary School. The College had funded a new boy’s dormitory and in the team were asked to formally open the dormitory before they left.

 

All the pupils were very excited to see all the mzungus, especially as they heard there would be cake!

 

The formal opening of the building was done by two of the Team

 

The school has Special Education Needs unit, and some of their pupils performed a song to thank the Team for coming.

 

 

And then there was the cake……….
