Dancing in class!
| Me taking part in Selina's maths lesson. |

After the maths lesson, the children started singing. I was told that they were thanking Oxfam. A boy and a girl went up to the front of the class and started dancing. Then Selina asked Adolphe (our translator) to ask me if I wanted to come to the front of the class with her and dance! I said no straight away, but Selina insisted and dragged me to the front. I tried to copy what she was doing, but she just seemed to be jumping up and down so I did the same — feeling like an idiot in front the whole class!
“Selina walks to school every day, with no shoes, for about six kilometres there and another six coming back.”

Selina finishes school at one o'clock every day. There are fourteen teachers at the school, and 1383 pupils, so the teachers teach their classes in two shifts — around fifty pupils in the morning and the same in the afternoon. Selina wants to be a teacher when she grows up. She walks to school every day, with no shoes, for about six kilometres there and another six coming back.
