What’s your idol?

Still moving
Things continue to move forward at C4KK. The Class 8 kids came home both Tuesday and Wednesday from school exuding confidence over their exam. They all seem pretty sure of themselves and the "easiness" of the exam. Unfortunately we won't know the results until mid...
To be or not to be….

Quick recap of the day….
