Slide 2
Hallo, my name is Mr Ceesay. The children are really enjoying
the work you send.
Slide 3
It is nearly Tobaski and we are very excited.
Slide 4
So on Tobaski day every compound who can afford it buys a Ram
and cooks it. The meat is then shared with the poor people and then
we eat ourselves. And we all try to decorate our houses and wear
new clothes.
Slide 5
Tobaski is the main Muslim festival. Most countries call it Eid
al Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice. It is a story in the Quran. God
to test Ibrahims faith asked him to sacrifice his only son. And
when God saw that Ibrahim was prepared to do this he let him off
and said he could sacrifice a Ram in stead.
Slide 6
We have been making Tobaski chains to decorate our class. We
are going to send you some.
Slide 7
We say forwaatidoo that is Mandinka and means until next
