Special Needs

At Sangita there are a couple of children who have special needs. They are 7 years old and whilst their peer group are going to pre school they have to stay home with the younger children because their special needs. This is a litle bit about one girl called Nagama…

Nagama

She’s been at the orphanage for 3 years now and she was begging on the street until a couple found her and took her in, unfortunately they couldn’t afford to feed her because they are rat eaters, (very poor people) so she was brought to the orphanage. They come to visit her once every 3 months.

Nagama is a very happy and affectionate girl, she won my heart over and I’ve a wee bit of a soft spot for her. It is my hope that Martha and Carrongrange school will be able to advise the staff at the orphanage on how best to educate Nagama and the other children with special needs and hopefully provide some resources for them aswell.
