Bringing Christmas cheer to the children of La Ruche
Bringing Christmas cheer to the children of La Ruche
Our Mauritius team embraced the Christmas spirit by organising a Christmas party for the children of La Ruche education and training centre.
La Ruche provides extra-curricular support for socially disadvantaged children between the ages of 3 to 18, helping to nurture their cognitive, physical, moral and civic development.
The Christmas party included a lunch served by members of our Mauritius team and was followed by the distribution of gifts such as toys, school bags and shirts which were also provided by Ocorian. As with most Christmas parties, there were also some lively celebrations including singing and dancing (not to mention one Ocorian team member braving the Mauritian heat dressed as Father Christmas!).
The event was a great success, with smiles all round from the children and Ocorian team alike. And it was the children of La Ruche that capped off a wonderful afternoon by presenting a beautiful painting and letter of thanks to our Mauritius team.
