For my 10th Birthday I asked my friends to bring a donation to my party, instead of a present,so I could buy some soccer balls for kids in Indonesia. My dad found out through the Rotary Club in Kelowna about a Rotary Club in Indonesia. We emailed Ade, a Rotary member from Ubud, and she arranged for us to give the balls to 2 different schools. She chose schools that have a soccer field close by so the kids would be able to use the balls.
Here is a picture of me with the sports teacher and the principal.
When we visited the school it was a summer break but there were a few kids there - so we took a picture of them too! You should have seen how big their eyes got when I pulled the balls out of the bag - 6 balls for this school.
This is the exterior of the school
This is their soccer field - nothing like the ones in Canada! The goal posts are made out of bamboo. The building in the middle of the field is temporary - it is for the village cremation at the end of the month.
