"This isn't a bit like school!"

Spending a week with the enthusiastic children and staff at Mission House is a wonderful experience! On the first day one of the boys said, "This isn't a bit like school!" as he happily looked around. It didn't take long for the children to get acquainted and to bond. It didn't take long for teachers and bright eyed boys and girls to be engaged in the games that make learning fun in each center. Reading Camp is really a love story for me. When a child looks up at me and I see the light of discovery in those eyes, I hear the angels sing.
