  • Children line up to wash their hands before morning porridge provided in the morning by SIDAREC; one of the volunteer mothers prepares it for the children. At lunch, all parents bring their children food. They have a pot in which goes the name of every child whose parent has delivered lunch; those left out have all the food shared with them and the parents are followed up to find out why they didn't provide lunch. They said the purpose of keeping the kids at school for lunch is to ensure the parents actually make/buy a meal and bring it. Otherwise the risk is that the child won't get fed.
