Visting the Al-Khoei Foundation School

Spent the morning with students at Al Sadiq and Al Zahra Schools.  First a quick visit to primary pupils, seated in rows and behaving like angels with cheeky eyes.  Next was a meeting with the boys, three curious lads  - What did I think of the Shia community so far? What's St Ethelburga's?  Can we visit? Will I be learning about them too?  And then the girls; artists and interviewers touching on questions they can ask the women elders about the transformation of the Mosque.  What a wonderful group of bright and curious students!
