The Year Continued

August through November was spent as teacher for the following POC Course.  The students had an hour and a half of daily Tok Pisin instruction, two hours of academic studies, followed by two hours of PNG studies which included hiking, swimming, scrap booking, and various field trips...

November to December has been spent up at Ukarumpa in the Highlands teaching 5th grade until the end of the term which was Dec. 14.  It is wonderfully cool here and beautiful with the plethora of flowers, misty mountains, and green valleys! 

I also had the opportunity to visit a couple of pets around here- a Kapul (cuscus) and some cute little sugar gliders which like to hide in their nest.
