Ivan
Ivan
Ivan was abandoned by his mother at the home of her employer. He was then brought to the Nsambya Babies' home by his mother's employer. After this incident, his mother was nowhere to be found. After staying at the Nsambya Babies' home, Ivan came to live at the Rafiki Village Uganda in May 2004. He now enjoys learning many things at Rafiki. Ivan’s favorite subjects are fine art, Bible class, and physical education. Ivan loves to be in logic and art classes. He enjoys reasoning, especially using Scriptures. He expresses himself by drawing pictures. He also likes math because he has a teacher who is able to keep him continuously interested in the subject. His best grades are in history and art at this time. Ivan recently undertook a science experiment to test for sugar in food substances. He was careful to watch color changes as different solutions were applied to a heated liquid, and he enjoyed this new discovery!
