Horesti Kindergarten Closing Ceremony

USAid repaired the outside and replaced windows 2 years ago


This child gave us an angel and said we were angels sent to them

5 classrooms got 30 tables & 120 chairs. Notice the pillows on top of the 3 tier pull-out napping beds. Our tables color match the beds-how cool is that?!

The Raion (county) President attended the closing ceremony
as well as the current mayor, the past mayor, and a contender to be next mayor

The children are beautiful in Moldova. They loved their new tables & chairs.

The traditional Moldovan welcome with bread and salt.
Traditional Moldovan clothing.

The children put on an hour long concert of dancing, singing & reciting poems

The star performers!

Are they not just the most adorable couple??!!!

This teacher marched this group of children in and they lead us in the Chicken Dance.

We had fun giving Elena the Director a Moldovan flag.
We also made the first donation to their "Kitchen Cooking Pot" collection because they need cooking pots badly.

We were presented with a hand carved wooden fruit bowl plaque. Love it!


They ended up putting so much food on this table you could NOT see the tablecloth!
