Guys, Nellie the Elephant wants to go to the circus!
The students where Rose and I are working have never, I repeat NEVER, been to the circus. Now, whilst I appreciate that you might not believe this to be the most pressing issue in their lives (what about education, or running water, or electricity blah blah blah) I personally sincerely believe that clowning around is important to lighten the emotional load that these kids carry every day.
Also, it requires much less dollar. So I can justify asking for it.
Let me instill the obsessive desire to learn useless skills in these eager minds. Let me teach them the art of entering the 'juggle zone'. Let me mould them to my tune so closely that they start reciting site swap in their maths lessons.
But seriously, for 3 quid you can give someone the chance to do something they have never before even begun to contemplate. And i'll show you photies after too.
