Meet Valamathi  She is four years old and one of the latest orphaned children to come to live at the Children's Home at Pandithitta.  She is very happy - modelling a new dress and necklace!

Hopefully this isn't a problem that you have at your school!
Message from Sr Gracy at Munnar Boarding and School:-  Last week we had a visitor.  He came without our permission and had all what he wanted and went off without saying a word.  All longed to see him but none of us saw him.  He was out of our campus before dawn.  Sr. Annie felt very sad because all her vegetables were liked by him and he ate everything.  Only his foot prints were left on the ground.  Who was he - an elephant!

A message received recently, which sums up what so many of our supporters think:-  
Dear Julie,  Thank you SO much for sending those photos. It's so heartening to SEE one's little contribution being put to such good use instead of helping to furnish plush offices in London of a national charity!
Congratulations on your 2011 fund raising amount. Here's hoping that things will go just as well in 2012, or even better.
Very best wishes, Jenny

    If your school is within reasonable travelling distance of Kettering, Northamptonshire, please contact us if you would like a visitor. Talks can be given on "India" for Humanities, or "Christianity In Action" for R.E. Both talks are fun and lively with full 'audience participation' - dressing up, playacting, trying to drink like Indian children - pouring water from a height into their mouths and other fun things. We link schools here in the UK to schools in India. Please email for further information.
