THE STORM

Before children went home that afternoon, the head teacher called an assembly and said, "this morning, we got the materials for building our new class room. Thank you for those who helped to carry them from the bridge. Now of course, the main part of the work begins and I would like some of you to help in the evenings after lessons. I hope you will be happy to do that. The work will start on Monday."

The parents who were going to help with the building arrived very early on Monday morning. Mr. Omwenga, the local builder, had already marked the position of the walls on the ground and some of the parents began to dig the foundations. Others went to a nearby hill to collect stones.
