May 20th



The Niusawa High School was so grateful for  the "smart boards"










The principal said the Smart Boards were a tremendous blessing for their school. They had been requesting this technology for a long time. This LDS Charities Donation was an answer to prayers.





This is Fijian Chicken Hawk...

More Barrels to Vuna...







Off to visit a family on top of the mountain....

They raise cattle now and soon will have sheep arriving....



Branch President Ranama also came to  visit.


We were surprised to see the chickens enjoying  a coconut meal.


Thomas was trying to "fill Dad's boots"!


The family also has two older boys.



Ready to take School furniture and supplies to Lavena School...



Our Volunteers help load...












Arriving in Lavena...



The Elders visit with the school children while we wait for the truck to arrive...













The kindergarten show us there games....

Hop scotch..


A balloon relay....


So exciting!

And a bottle relay..The bottle is knocked down on the way and set back up on the way back...












The sand on the beach is so beautiful!

Some of the Student display new books and furniture....

It is a good day in Lavena...




The School Master tells Elder Vermeeren that  LDS charities has blessed his school....


The Lesuma's have relatives in Lavena ...They were happy to be a part of this day!




On the way home we see "The Survivor" Team on their last day of filming.

They still have four remaining contestants. 




The drone films the contestants...

This "Big Fella" working on the crew, was a friend of the Lesuma's.










The Crew seem so out of place on this Island....
