This week has been 'bring your panga into school' week. A panga is this enormous, sharp, metal farming tool, used for cutting crops, and the entire school has been running around with them, the pangas at least half as big as the children, all week. The football field is full of weeds and so it's the task of the children to eliminate them, everyday between 3.10 and 4.00pm.
It's hilarious! I've just been sitting there watching all these children piling their giant weapons in the corner every morning before starting work, trying not to burst out laughing at how ridiculously dangerous it is, and jumped quite a few times today when I turned around to see a crowd of ten-year-olds standing behind me, peering over my shoulder to see what I was drawing, all holding long metal swords.
I love the insanity that goes on in this country.
