El Shaddi Children's Home




Last week I had an incredible time with 4 other PCVs working at El Shaddi Children’s Home. Located in the high veld in the northern region of Hhohho, I was surrounded with beautiful scenery and chilly weather- just what I needed! The five of us were there to teach a few sessions at a week-long camp for the kids there.  I was teaching two days of dance to kids aged 6-15. The last day, they showed of their new skills to the rest of the kids. Also at the camp this week was a group of missionaries from the states. They were part of this thing called the one year race. The go to a different country every month and do mission work. Interestingly enough, I had considered doing this before I had signed up for Peace Corps. The kids at the camp are just a fraction of the OVCs in Swaziland (orphans and vulnerable children). I was so happy to be able to help out at get to see other parts of the country. 

In our spare time we made a Harlem Shake youtube video. See the Link below and share it with all your friends!
