Closing Day

Our closing day for the build in Vietnam was a celebration.  The community was there to officially thank the team and to say farewell.  There was sadness at leaving, but much gratitude for the new friendships and accomplishment.  We leave knowing that we have made a difference both there and in ourselves.  The students and leaders were all outstanding representatives, and will no doubt be enthusiastic ambassadors for DSBNi. 

After the morning ceremony, we visited Vinh Trang pagoda and met the children at the pre-school for under-privileged.  Joelle had packed a large bag of hand knit teddy bears which were enthusiastically received by the Master and by the students.

Thank-you to all who followed our blog.  The comments were meaningful and entertaining and very much welcome reading around the breakfast table.  There are numerous photos now on the DSBN Technology and Experiential Learning facebook page.
