Mothers who escaped countries of war like Afghanistan or Syria who were on the run for months, threatened by crime and hunger, who have devastating stories to tell find themselves  finally in  a safe space where they can learn and thrive. Most of our mothers get encouraged through their children to attend our classrooms and it is heartwarming when we see the pride in those young children’s eyes when their mothers finally agree to start coming to their very own school to learn their games and learn a new language.

Despite different cultural backgrounds, languages and social environments it is wonderful to see how people come together peacefully, connected through the common sense of humanity eager to learn and embracing the existing diversity.
