Hygiene Poster Contest!

Okay, I know that Earth Day's past and Easter just happened and I have cool stories about getting three sheets to the wind and jumping over a fire in the middle of the street (okay, that's Chiakokonoba in a nutshell, and though I did jump over the fire, I didn't actually drink anything that day [sadly]) and grave visiting (much to your excitement, Mom ; D ) and there was also another funeral in the family this past week, BUT this is long overdue.  So, without further adieu:

This is the project I did with my director, thanks to Appropriate Projects.

Read that, or the next part doesn't make as much sense.  (don't forget the conclusion link at the bottom for more pictures and commentary!)

The next part:

One of the art teachers agreed to co-host a contest with me.  We planned logistics and organized the jury for judging.  Much of the work on the entries was done by 1-2 students rather than the whole class (with teacher help.... weird.)  But I'm pleased with the turnout, and I think it was a fun thing for the kids to do to help celebrate the making of water stations at school.  Now we only need reliable electricity so the water pump works all the time.  Also soap.


Here're the entries for your viewing pleasure:
