The Lion King. Circle of Life. Elton John version. I don't own The Lion King, or the song Circle of Life, this version of which is sung by Elton John. This video is a tribute to the movie The Lion King.

August 4~5, 2017. Hello to all, and a warm welcome to Model One Day School. We are here to bring education to the lives of children who might never have the opportunity before or perhaps ever, in their lives to go to school. These children are all incredibly smart and willing to learn. They study hard and they play hard too. They are a family, a part of The Childrens Global Community. And they can always call Model One "Home". Before I sign off, a quote from Benjamin Franklin~ The Door of Wisdom are Never Shut.

August 1~ 2, 2017. Hello everyone, we have very good news to share with you. We have managed to keep Model One Day School running during the most difficult times we've ever experienced. We've been running on less than a shoe string, running on empty, never knowing if we'll have enough money for food let alone pencils and paper, for so long now, that one begins to loose focus of their goals and the fruition of their project. But in our case, its the kids that keep us going. As long as they are with us, we are with them. We are one big family, always!

Good morning, or evening, where ever you may reside. It's been a very busy week here at the Children's Global Community. "Father" and I are still running the Model One Day School on a shoestring budget. Heck, at this point, why not be as transparent as I can..... We are running on the grace of god at this point, and really we've been at this place or hurdle rather, for the past six months. Through all of this~ Father still has eight students who will absolutely not give up their introduction to education no matter what the circumstances. They come to school every day, seven days a week! They are in it for the duration, and we are so very proud of them. Please help us at his point by "Following" and "Liking" us as much as possible. They want to learn so badly, and they are so intelligent. We love them so.

Good evening, Kathleen here. I am sitting here writing my copy tonight for ths page. I'm comfortable, ate a great dinner, I have a roof over my head, a "HOME" to call my own. A sense of being, a sense of being someone. A human being living on this planet along with everyone else, and moving through life as it takes me on my different paths. One of our greatest dreams is the children we care for, and educate understand this principle. Is this someone I'm sensing me? Because until now, I have never known anything but living second to second in a state of survival. If our children could express themselves like I've just described I think they might be thinking this very thought. And I wonder~ what do the children do when the sun goes down?

Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it q***r
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

A poem by Robert Frost.

“Our Goal is to End Extreme Poverty
Through Education. Child by child,
family by family”.

The two boys below are playing in an open field behind the railway station. They play there with each other, most likely all day, without supervision of any kind. Yet, the boy in the second photograph has made a kite. He is incredibly smart and resourceful, far more than many children throughout the world who are students of regular and private schools. Just think what went into this kite he made. First he found the proper materials, figured out the best way to put it all together, even attached a tail, and the dearest of all............. The proper stance for flying a kite! The saddest part of my tale, a mind gone to waste.
