Here are some of the lovely people I work with. Sophie and Zuhura are UB volunteers. Sophie is an occupational therapist, working with the Mongolian Association of Parents of Disabled Children. She trains parents and staff in strategies to enable children to have more independent lives. Zuhura works with the Mongolian Education Alliance as a fundraiser. This photo was taken at my 43rd birthday party.
Sophie came to Choibalsan last week to take part in workshops for teachers on inclusion. Andie (the other kindergarten teacher trainer) and I were also involved, doing half-day practical sessions on differentiation. The workshops went really well. After Wednesday's session, I was interviewed on TV. I was out in the evening when the interview was shown, but Sophie said that they dubbed my voice with that of the interpreter, so that when I gave my answers, I was still talking even though my mouth had stopped moving. Wish I'd seen it ....

Love the idea of you being on Mongolian TV - Fab! And being 'badly-dubbed girl' too - like an episode of Belle and Sebastian! It sounds like you're doing lots of interesting things - and having fun despite the lack of trees.
Thought of you when listening to recent "late junction' on R3 - it was all about (the unmistakable sound of) medieval Icelandic music! Tee hee.
Have just survived my first parents evening so enjoying a glass of plonk although it's a school night...All the best, hen.
