Letters From Students, Part 3

The schools in Vanuatu recently started their third and last term of the school year. Thanks mom for the postcard! The students love seeing pictures of Niagara Falls. Some things from the postcard that I had to explain were what "pepperoni pizza" is (although hard when most don't know what cheese is) and what is an "animal shelter".

Here is a transcript from the student's letter:

"Hello!

My name is Eddie. I am from East Ambae in Vanuatu. My teacher is Miss Elizabeth. I like to learn things from school, because when I will get old I already know everything. I like to eat laplap taro. Laplap is a food that is grated and baked with coconut milk.

I like to go to the garden to plant taro, cabbage, and banana.

 During my free time I like to read and play soccer with my friends at school.

Thank you for sending a postcard.

 Eddie"
