Pretty Bad Homesick



The kids are hit pretty hard with homesickness. The second group only arrived a week ago, then they had a weekend with Karla, after which the homesickness was double strength.

Kids who like their parents feel homesickness worse - so back them up hard.  You sent them to Downlands so they can have a live. Now is the time to give good encouragement.

Bonita was good today - she said that it was their job to keep the school rules. That is what she was going to do!
