Aldea Yanapay Alternative School in Cusco
This is an after school program (15:30 to 18:00), and involves interacting with the children (ages 10-16) and a dinner at the Yanapay Cafe (The cafe finances the program). If the day you visit is a Saturday, you will have a longer time with the children and may take them out into the community for a walk or activities. They also enjoy playing games, singing, and folk dancing!
Rumira School in the Sacred Valley
This is a morning visit, bringing breakfast to the children, with time to interact with them while serving them a nutritious breakfast! There may be a bit of time for songs, games or dances as well. The afternoon is spent traveling in remote areas to the villages of Willoc and Patacancha, visiting family homes and observing the Quechua way of life, including their weavings and methods of agricultural production.
