Challenges

With the countdown now on till departure for Tanzania, the pressure is on to get ready. There has been a further meeting with parents and participants, to outline what needs to be packed for the trip, and giving a more detailed outline of the journey.

Another very important consideration in planning is the fundraising activities that contribute to CAS projects visited over the last years in Tanzania. For example, a recent BBQ was specifically for the Tanzanian orphanage that we visit, as we feel that we should contribute needed funds rather than just turn up and visit. And there will be lots of projects continuing through the year, so keep an eye out for posters and activities around the school.

Many thanks to all those who have supported past fundraisers, for both the Tanzania and the Congo projects, in any way – these are great examples of school community efforts reaching out to assist those less well off around our globe.
