Our Nepalese co-ordinator Hari came to school with us today to take a video of volunteers teaching (for a YouTube post!)  
There was the usual confusion at school  because the ‘hearing doctor’ had come to examine the children so Hari was unable to take any video shots of us in the classrooms.
The children at all  government schools have an annual hearing test.  The nurses are also good at spotting other illnesses, and they check the general health of the children.   This scheme only started 2 years ago and is privately funded by a very worthwhile charity set up by an Australian called David Hine.    www.hearingproject.nepal.org

These children and others who have poor hygiene and are hungry, would not get a health check if it was not for David Hine
