Continuing the second room...
August, 2011
I am here again after almost one year. During the monsoon season the surrounding was turning green, but the rain caused some damamages. It washed down sone parts of the stone-wall, they have to be built again. The walls of the first room are already standing, now we can imagine the size of the rooms.

The first room is being built now. We will build other two rooms for the children, a room for storage and office and a kitchen in this long building. Toilets and bathroom are planned in a separate house.
This picture shows the state of August 2010. The construction works has been interrupted because of the monsoon season and the lack of funds. Please help us to continue our project.

Groundwork has begun...
February 15, 2010
2 days before the foundation stone of the new kindergarten was laid in Dhampus. We informed the residents about the works we had begun in the last weeks and asked for their help. Further donations were offered.

Landscaping works are still gonig on. As our current budget is almost over, we need to ask for loan to continue the works. We cannot stop it now, because we need to build a stone wall to that place, where the workers are digging in the photo. Otherwise the heavy monsoon rains may wash away the upper ground.
We have to face other difficulties, too: it is not easy to find skilled workers like masons and the prize of building materials is getting higher and higher.

For 2 weeks i have been here again in Dhampus.
Since August the following progress has been made: we agrred with the village leaders that the kindergarten will receive the ground for FREE, when it will have been built up. However, we have only 15% of the planned budget now, we decided to start the landscaping works on the ground and continue the works until our budget ends.
Unfortunately, construction works run in Nepal not so easily and quickly as in European countries. Lack of good quality building materials and skilled workers make the date of finishing uncertain.
In the last days a bulldozer smoothed the surface of the ground.
This photos show how it looked before...
...and after: And curious kids watching the bulldozer:
In August I spent my holiday at home, in Nepal. One of our enthusiastic Hungarian donor, Tibi was my companion there. These photos were taken at our visit in Dhampus. We were surprised at how many people got together to welcome us (our project). We talked about how the village people can support this construction. But the main question was the place of the future kindergarten in Dhampus.
