Gabriella speaking with confident eloquence about their fund raising activities organised by the School Council Fund raising committee. Teacher in charge Anne Smart with Gabriella, Jason and Alex were our guests as a small token of appreciation for their tremendous achievement in raising £1,700 for the Haiti Disaster appeal and £700 towards Rotary's Polio Appeal. They had also raised considerable amounts for their own particular charities. Mufti Days was their chosen method which everyone appreciates. However at the Technology Tournament RHS was the smartest and best turned out school. |

MORE BLACKBOARD NEWS FROM TANZANIA |
|
|
| Dear Paul, How are things with you in the UK? I just thought I would write you a quick email to let you know that the blackboards that you at Reepham Rotary gave money towards, are now all finished and ready for distribution to the village schools next week. One teacher was so keen to have their board, they cycled here to collect it, and some chalk, and took it back on their bicycle!!!! They very so pleased with it and said 'Asante sana' (Thank you very much!) over and over! Many thanks again and best wishes, Laura
Hello Paul
I'm back now! Just staying at my
parents for the moment until I feel like braving real life in Norwich!
It's a shock to the system coming back, I am really missing the
simplicity of community life out there....
Anyway, I have just downloaded some of my
pictures, so I'll send them to you in a couple of emails.
Many thanks again for all your support with
this extremely successful and worthwhile project!
Laura
