Scouting for Kenya
Over the half term holiday, Mrs Zakaidze went out to Kenya for the Camps International teacher’s inspection visit in preparation for the student expedition next summer.
It was a very busy week, during which she experienced some of the activities and projects that students will be taking part in while they are there. This included; beadwork and making paper using elephant poo with the local Mamas, a mountain trek, visiting a Maasai Tribe, deworming goats, making bricks that would be used in the building of a school and going on an evening safari.
Starting next week, students going to Kenya will be running a tuck shop from the hatch on the main yard during break to raise money to fund their expedition.
Students can bring cash to school in order to purchase a midweek treat for themselves and to help students raise funds for their expedition. The shop will be running each week until the end of the year.
