It was really interesting to everyone to see a primary school in Britain - and to find out about school dinner. These pictures are from the playground. Some things are the same... skipping, and hopscotch.

At Hampstead School
The Palestinian kids did their play about the checkpoint at the International Evening. It was difficult because of the noise (and the thunderstorm) and having to share a mike - Then Yazan, Ibrahim and Adam did some great dabkeh. We will find a better picture of everyone in their Youth Ambassador teeshirts soon.

Day 1- Hampstead Heath
Enas and Ballu did a report from today, and we'll put it on here as soon as we can. But this is for the families. Today was a really good day. A good meeting in the morning, everyone got to know each other - and we also saw the teeshirts that had been designed between Camden and Abu Dis.
Then a ride in the bus up to Camden Lock - a very brief visit to just to see that famous place. I wonder what a first view of London is for people from Palestine. Crazy?
The we went for a picnic to Hampstead Heath. It was beautiful weather and the Heath was full of people, but we had a good time - lots of football and climbing trees and talking and games... Later we had a meal and a review of today... And then back to the places people are staying... Everyone happy but really quite tired.
[From me to all the great people who are helping with everything - THANK YOU VERY MUCH. It is all going very well so far, thanks to you all - Nandita]

They are all safe and well!
Dear families of the visitors in Abu Dis
The visitors have arrived and all is well - now in the places they are staying in. All happy but tired (and probably asleep now). Sorry I can't put any photos on here as everyone else has the cameras, but we will do that tomorrow.
We're very pleased they are here and we will look after them all well while they are here. Don't worry!
All best wishes
Nandita
