Pre-K provide fruit peelings to ISO’s tortoises

# data[].attributes.body
This year the current Pre-K class showed a lot of interest in the tortoises. We built on our knowledge from last year to plan for our project.

The children were excited to meet Mr. Dimitri (ISO gardener) and learn about ISO’s tortoises. They enjoyed having him visit our class and taking a tour with him to discover the places where the ISO tortoises like to be. At the same time we fed one of the tortoises.

Learning:

-       Importance of a balanced diet for turtles

-       Preventing fruit remains from becoming “waste”

-       Working on a project as part of a community

-       Service to others; caring about others

In‌ ‌the‌ ‌beginning,‌ ‌MythBusters‌ ‌planned‌ ‌to‌ ‌organize‌ ‌a‌ ‌Health‌ ‌conference‌ ‌for‌ ‌women‌ .‌ ‌We‌ ‌would‌ ‌welcome‌ 75 girls ‌from‌ ‌11‌ ‌to‌ ‌14‌ ‌years‌ ‌old.‌‌ ‌Our‌ ‌goal‌ ‌was‌ ‌to‌ ‌provide‌ ‌sexual‌ ‌education‌ ‌and‌ ‌sanitary‌ ‌pads‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌‌ girls.‌ ‌ ‌

We‌ ‌realized‌ ‌that‌ ‌we‌ ‌could‌ ‌no‌ ‌longer‌ ‌organize‌ ‌a‌ ‌conference‌ ‌and‌ ‌had‌ ‌to‌ ‌find‌ ‌a‌ ‌smaller‌ ‌thing‌ ‌to‌ ‌work‌ ‌on.‌  Rather‌ ‌than‌ ‌only‌ ‌focusing‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌outside‌ ‌community‌ ‌we‌ ‌could‌ ‌help‌ ‌the‌ ‌girls‌ ‌in‌ ‌our‌ ‌ISO‌ ‌community.‌
‌We‌ ‌decided‌ ‌to‌ ‌have‌ ‌a‌ ‌presentation‌ ‌for‌ ‌students‌ ‌from‌ ‌5‌ ‌to‌ ‌8‌ ‌grades‌ ‌about‌ ‌menstruation‌ ‌and‌ ‌also‌ ‌display‌ ‌posters‌ ‌about‌ ‌menstruation‌ ‌and‌ ‌how‌ ‌people‌ ‌should‌ ‌behave‌ ‌around‌ ‌the‌ ‌school.‌ ‌Our‌ ‌third‌ ‌decision‌ ‌was‌ ‌to‌ ‌buy‌ ‌sanitary‌ ‌pads‌ ‌with‌ ‌our‌ ‌budget‌ ‌and‌ ‌put‌ ‌them‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌girls’‌ ‌bathroom.‌ ‌

Here are one draft of the posters:

Building Blocks is a project created by us high schoolers for orphans between the ages of 3 and 6 who do not have the basic necessities to live and learn. Our project includes seven members (six of us students and one teacher) and our main focus is to engage in educational and recreational activities with the children.  Our service learning group is also collaborating hand in hand with a local organization named L’ Auxiliare that will be providing them the basic social and educational skills for their work. The purpose of this field trip was so that members of Building Blocks could receive proper training as daycare workers regarding volunteering over the course of 2 days at the Auxiliare headquarters in Ouagadougou. Furthermore, we were also in contact with the head of the "Les Enfants d'Abord" orphanage and were planning on setting up a visit where we could put in practice what we learned from L’ Auxiliare. However, our journey was sadly halted due to the Covid-19 outbreak and the following quarantine. :/

Grade 2 Service Leaning Trash Boat Project

1.    Why do you want to make trash boats?

We want to make trash boats because we want to help our community by picking up all of the trash that we find on campus. We want to make boats because it will be a fun way to help our community.

2.    How will this help people in the community?
~Picking up trash on campus helps the school environment look nicer.

~Picking up trash will also help to prevent global warming.

~Picking up trash will help us make sure our tortoises only eat healthy food.

By collaborating with local partners to address community needs, service learning helps ISO achieve its mission to promote cultural understanding and community involvement. As well, service learning provides students with the opportunity to grow in all of the 5C's or core values of ISO: communication, creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and community.

In 2018, the service learning project M'Gomda was presented the Association of International Schools in Africa (AISA) Outstanding Service Project award for its phone app which helped build Burkinabe students capacity to practice English skills.

Students selected for the AISA Student Service Leader award include Roxane Somda in 2018 and Hulda Compaore in 2017.

M’GOMDA is a service-learning project created in the last 2 years that has for goals to create apps to allow Burkinabe students from 6e to Terminale to study English outside of class in a fun and interactive way.  M’GOMDA produced an app last year (can be find Here ) and the members of the group collected feedback from users and peers.

Using these feedback, we established new goals for the second version of the app: add gamification, resources, and make the app design appealing.  The creation of an app is a continuous process, M’Gomda’s action phase never stops.  Resources are permanently added to the app, allowing users to enjoy even more the learning experience.

Design team: M’Gomda has a new design!  We congratulate our design team, who worked so hard to make the app as beautiful as it can be.

Technology: The technology team did an amazing job to code the internal database and structure of the app. They are still working to implement other functions of the app.

Marketing: The marketing team created our amazing Facebook page which can be found here: Facebook link.

The project was created in 2019 and this is our second year helping incarcerated teenagers in MACO (the main prison of Ouagadougou). This second year we visited and supported a rehabilitation house of former-prisoners. Our goal as a group is to support these minors, giving them a little hope and helping them to have a better life once they are out of prison. We hope our visits make them realize that they are not alone or forgotten: neither hope nor the human spirit can be chained.

Due to Covid-19, our March and April visits were cancelled, as was the student expo on all of our Service Learning Projects this year at ISO. If the project were to continue next year, the next steps would be planning the visits that we were unable to carry out this year. That a majority of our ISO participants are from grades 9 and 10 provides them with an easy opportunity to carry on with Project Unclinkable, and we expect to pass the torch to a third group September 2020.

This year, grade 7's service learning project was about MOPED safety. We organized a mock trial about a bike that had been hit by a moto.

While I was working on this project, I learned that our class is very good at getting right to the point. Whenever we had to get ready, we didn't waste time choosing roles or memorizing testimonies. We were very efficient and managed to complete  practice trials multiple times.

Doing the project helped me get insight on the court system and the different parts of the court system. This project also kind of made me want to be a judge.

Service Learning - Reflection Poem

by Naomi F.

Once we started, we didn’t know what to do,

Ideas swimming around the room.

Finally, we settled on the suggestion of “Safety”,

We recognized the importance of it very greatly.

During that time, I learned lots about myself,

I like Mock Trials, and quiet places to think, as well.

In the future, I’d work a lot more efficiently,

It’s the only thing that I’d do differently.

The sad part, is that we had to leave,

There were so many things we had yet to achieve.

I’ll miss what we finished - and what we started too,

All of the things that we’ve gotten through.

I thank the teachers, Mrs. Sanfo and Mrs. Sambou,

We couldn’t have done it without you two!

There was lots of planning, and little frustration -

Because we had a clear destination.

Grade 7 - May 15, 2020

Les métiers des services à la personne, qu'est-ce que c'est ?

Les métiers des services à la personne sont l'ensemble des corps de métiers œuvrant à l'assistance des personnes dans leurs tâches de la vie courante.

Nounous, personnels de crèches ou assistantes maternelles, auxiliaires de vie, aide-ménagères, cuisiniers, gouvernantes, majordomes ... Font partie des professionnels du service à la personne. Ces métiers exigeants demandent des compétences particulières et ne peuvent pas s'improviser !

Ils ont bénéficié de nos formations

Mme KERE Mariam Fondatrice de la crèche " Les Kings "

J'ai beaucoup appris malgré mon expérience de grand-mère. La gestion pratique des enfants dans ma crèche familiale. Par exemple les gestes de premiers secours, je sais comment procéder pour enlever un objet qu'un enfant a avalé etc.

Elise et Sophie Nounous avec 10 ans d'expérience

Nous avons apprécié la psychologie de l'enfant et les relations avec les parents pour mieux les gérer et avec l'attestation, nous pourrons mieux faire valoir nos compétences.

Sarata Personnel de la crèche Madeleine

Nous avons appris qu'un enfant n'est pas un objet et que depuis le ventre de sa maman il entend et il faut lui parler pour chaque chose qu'on veut faire avec lui. Le laver, l'habiller, lui donner à manger se fait avec des mots doux à son endroit.

Billa Mouniratou Jeune fille sans expérience maternelle

Avant la formation, je ne m'étais jamais occupée d'un bébé. Grâce à la formation, je sais maintenant comment changer la couche de bébé !

Une équipe professionnelle et dévouée

C'est une équipe soucieuse, engagée pour le bien-être de la famille et pour le professionnalisme des apprenants qui organise les formations.
