Luca

volunteered

at

Oponganda

from

November

2021

until

September

2022.

He

had

to

get

used

to

working

and

playing

with very young children. After a bit of a bumpy start our volunteer from the ACS Göttingen found his feet.

He

supported

the

implementation

of

a

regular

physical

education

program

for

preschool

children

(3-6

years).

It

was

a

big

challenge

for

him

to

guide

the

children’s

enthusiasm

and

excitement

in

the

right

directions.

But

thanks

to

his

patience,

the

children

soon

understood

the

difference

between

running

around

in

the

playground

and

the

variety

of

exercises,

games

and

activities

offered

to

them

every

week.

The

steady

progress

the

children

made

was

easy

to

observe.

Luca

also

included

the

teachers

and

gave

them

helpful

support

so

that

they

can

continue

with

some

of

the

exercises now.

We

are

deeply

grateful

that

Luca

gave

his

time

and

energy

to

our

Oponganda

children.

From

the

bottom

of

our

hearts,

we

wish

him

all

the

best

for

whatever

his

future

plans

are.

And

we

sincerely

hope

that

he

will

return

to

our

beautiful

Namibia and visit Oponganda. -
