Children's Day at the Park

Monday 24th was a public holiday for Children's Day, which in central Port Vila involved a parade through the main street and up to Saralana Park (just up the road from us), and activities and entertainment in the park. There were smaller gatherings all around the country too. 

 There were several tents with good educational messages on various topics. Health and rights of the child to safety are big on the agenda.

 Food was provided, but before any children were served they had to wash their hands at this clever Save the Children hand-wash station.

 There was a big queue for a piece of the enormous cake to celebrate the day.
