On Thursday afternoon six students from Mowbray College, Melbourne, Australia visited the Mercy Center.  The Mowbray students are on an exchange visit based at The Regent’s School, Pattaya for 3 weeks.

The Mowbray students and their teacher brought with them 4 large bags of toys that had been collected by families at Mowbray College and donated to the Mercy Center.

The Mercy Center children were thrilled and overjoyed to receive so many toys.  Their eyes lit up and the faces beamed as they saw the toys and began to play with them.  The Mowbray students stayed for an hour playing with the children in the garden until it was time for tea.

It was a wonderful surprise for the Mercy Center children and we want to thank the Mowbray students for their generosity. They really showed the children that they cared for them – there were lots of hugs and kisses as they left!
