It has been a great year for students at the Little Angels Learning Centers (LALC) in Jamaica! This month, the LALC in Gordon Town held its’ annual Sports Day. The children participated in various games including hurdles, an obstacle course, a Math race, and a potato sack race. The day is fun for the children and also helps them to further develop their physical and cognitive skills.
Recently, the principal of a nearby elementary school in Gordon Town, contacted us to say that the students from the LALC are doing very well academically when they enter the first grade. This is due in large part to the curriculum prepared by the LALC teachers, who work diligently to research and find the best educational activities as well as produce materials that enhance the children’s learning experience.
LALC students come from some of the poorest areas of Jamaica, so the education and nutritious meals they receive in Mustard Seed Communities’ care is vital to giving them the head start in life that all children deserve. It is only through the generosity of people like you that Mustard Seed is able to serve these children. Thank you for your support!
