We write to you this evening from a computer at Udayan.rnrnThis morning we got up early to go to Mass and to receive the Ashes from Rev. James Stevens, the founder of Udayan. As well as running Udayan, he is also a parish priest at a church in the heart of Kolkata, just a few minutes walk from our hotel.rnrnAfter having breakfast and packing our overnight bag, we set off for Udayan and arrived just after 12:00. The computers and train set awaited so we set off to work, the girls repairing and dusting the model railway and the boys putting together the machines that have been donated by St Joan of Arc.rnrnSetting up the computersrnrnThe train setrnrnWe ate a lovely lunch cooked by the chef at Udayan, and then finished off the jobs before going out and playing football with the older boys who had returned from High School. When the children had to go and do their evening study, we took time to prepare the performance we are putting on tomorrow, which at the moment consists of singing, dancing and even some gymnastics!rnrnTom directing the computersrnrnJenny
