The children take turns helping out on the farm in their groups: the <em>achievers<\/em>, the <em>simbas<\/em>, the <em>shining stars<\/em>, the <em>ulinzi team<\/em>, and the <em>tigers<\/em>. The children are very proud of their group affiliation and their self-chosen names. Due to the very high heat, the groups go to the shamba early in the morning, and while helping, they also learn a lot about organic farming and fertilizing, efficient watering, etc. \u2014 knowledge they take with them for their home shamba, i.e., the family&#8217;s own field. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"13100\" src=\"https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.12-2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"whatsapp image 2026 10 27 at 23.58.12 (2)\" class=\"wp-image-13100\" title=\"Holiday Program at MCC\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.12-2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.12-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.12-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.12-2-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.12-2.jpeg 2040w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"13097\" src=\"https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.11-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"whatsapp image 2026 10 27 at 23.58.11 (1)\" class=\"wp-image-13097\" title=\"Holiday Program at MCC\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.11-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.11-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.11-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/4kenya.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-27-at-23.58.11-1.jpeg 1530w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The big year-end holidays in Kenya began on October 17th, and only the graduating classes still have to go to school for another two to three weeks for their final exams.
