Last year we gave them Air Conditioning - Now lets work to give them a good day out and re-new those old worn-out uniforms
Thursday 1st March 2012 - Gift of Happiness Foundation are giving...
62 children and their teachers a great big day-out in Bangkok. The children are from our adopted school, Wat Sam Ma Kan School near Ayutthaya. These children are coming from some of the poorest families in the outskirts of Ayutthaya and most have never even been out of their local villages, so this will be a very special and memorable day out for them. In this picture taken last year, they are wearing uniforms donated by a bank. Now they are all looking a bit worse for wear, so they need to look good and feel confident when we take them to the big city...

We will take them all to the Dusit Zoo in the morning. Then after lunch at the Zoo some of our volunteer performers will give a fantastic, fun and interactive animal dance workshop with the children.
This will be followed by a visit at about 3.00pm, to the Amnuay Silpa Bilingual School in Bangkok where the children will enjoy another very special event. Amnuay Silpa is one of the original and best performing bilingual schools in Bangkok and their Drama students are staging a special production of Peter-Pan for our children.
Then about 5.00pm it's back on the buses with a picnic package for them to enjoy on their way back to Ayutthaya and a well earned rest after such a big day-out.
We are also planning to present the children with some new uniforms before the great day-out, so there's no embarrassment suffered by some of the poorest of the children who have very limited shoes & clothing.
Volunteer helpers may join us on this special day in return for donations towards our costs. [email protected]
