A nature walk for sumenyata, whilst molodshi capture Tarasivka’s surrounding beauty.

Monday morning began with the usual “ruhanka” (morning exercise) at 7:30 am. The meeting square was half-full, as compared to the previous week, since yesterday many of the youths had departed.

After molitva (prayers) and breakfast, our molodshi had a lesson to practice and develop their Ukrainian language skills, this was undertaken in the form of the game, a more interesting way to learn the language. The next lesson was “physical activity” (podruga) Emma led a yoga class for molodshi. Sumeniata, meanwhile, went on a nature walk, on this warm and sunny day. After a delicious dinner, the program a little less intense, allowing for everyone to choose something they enjoy – cycling and sports, as well as craftwork, where the children were happy to paint, sew or embroidery.
