Tomorrow a new semester starts at LAMB School. We look forward to having the children - and teachers - back to fill the otherwise empty buildings. We look forward to learning and to the blessing it is to see our students grow.
Last semester was a busy and challenging time, we started out short on staff, but by the end of the year; we interviewed teachers on 31 December; our staff numbers were up to what we feel is the need.
We praise God for the visas that allow us to bring in foreign staff, and for all the national staff who are at the school.
Today it looks as if the first day of school will be a little chaotic, four staff members will be late or possibly absent because a train was derailed near Joypurat on the line between Dhaka and Parbatipur; two teachers are away because of weddings and one is on a boat trip.
Fortunately we have been able to cover the schedule with former teachers and students who are back at LAMB on holidays.
Please continue to pray for work permits for foreign staff and for national science teachers.
