How fast time flies! It is now 12 weeks since Josh, Davis and I were in kenya. I know this because Josh's sister Meg has just come back after being there for three months. She came out with us when we went! So much has taken shape at the school over the last few months as you know. We have the sponsorship scheme in place, we have finished off some classrooms and made repairs to others.
More exciting developments have taken place this week. We have finally managed to negotiate a vehicle for the school. It had been such a great need for the school. Firewood, food and stationary all needed to be collected each week and this makes it so much easier. Also some children that live far away can be taken home after school when the rainy season is in full flow rather than getting soaked! We are so pleased to have a vehicle.
Also, this morning i went into Ixworth Primary School. Ixworth have really taken on the project and are doing so many fantastic things to raise funds. From a recent event, over £130 was raised. With this the school have asked if they can get some more skipping ropes, a hammer (which they have never had!) and the rest is going to be spent on a party! The kids at the school often don't get to eat much so we thought it would be a lovely idea for them to buy some food and drink and have a little party! So hopefully in a couple of weeks we will have some pictures of this and of the new skipping ropes in action!
Once again, thank you to everyone for your continued support - keep on keeping on!!
