My Class



This is picture of my class (Neil's) taken earlier this year as they sat down before gym class. I have since acquired one new student from another village. The kids can be very needy and most lack structure but I am thankful that this group has a good work ethic.



Silima. A little girl with remarkable energy.



Uttuqi. Very quick, especially in catching any mistakes I make.



Louisa. Always happy it seems.




Tukiqi. A very shy boy but with a large desire to succeed.



Mary. Quiet and reserved.



Levina. A girl who just wants to have fun, sometimes too much fun for her teacher to take.



Adamie. A leader in class and a boy with heart.



Willie. A hard worker who is interested in just about everything but most of all, big machines.

hey neil, that's an awesome portrait of your students! how's life going up north? In Switzerland, we got our first snow this week. Guess that's nothing special for you guys. For us it's still a funny feeling when you wake up in the morning and everything is white for the first time in the year.
Pre X-Mas season is just about too start. What is it like in Kangiqsujuaq? Also a lot of pre x-mas hustle?
Take care and have a wonderful Advent season,
lukas.

What cute kids....probably quite a handful, but I can see how you would get attached to them. Have a great year and see you soon
