Next new project in Chiziro,Chipata,Zambia

We are now hoping to start a school from scratch in Chiziro. This will mean lots more fundraising and applying for grants. The children in this village have to walk 5 miles over rough terrain to get to the nearest school.The roads are impassible during the rainy season. This is a big project but hopefully hundreds of children will gain from the new school.

Kit from Bedford

We have just recived these new photos from Rev.Alick showing the pupils wearing sports kit that was donated to the school by Dr Simon Lowe and his local football team. It is so good to think that clothes that are no longer needed in the UK can be used in Zambia. Thanks a lot Simon for arranging this for Teacher Aid.

Quiz night success

Thanks to all those who attended our quiz night and supper yesterday.It was a great success.The money raised will be sent to Ndola this week so that a start can be made on the third classroom. A special thankyou to The Wilsons who organised the quiz and all those people who helped on the night.

What a great day!

Well, after all the planning by Gareth this turned out to be a fantastic day for all concerned. The weather was kind to us and all 41 of us enjoyed a beautiful walk along the South Gower coast. We stood out a mile in our bright yellow tee shirts and despite many sets of weary legs at the end of the day everyone had a big smile on their faces. We hope to have raised pleanty of money to finish off the classroom and furnish it for the pupils at the Good Samaritan School.
A huge thankyou to all the walkers!

New classroom in Lusaka

We have received photos today from Rev Alick of the new classroom he is building with money from Teacher Aid. Once we have completed the sponsored walk in the Gower on Sunday we hope to be able to complete and furnish the room. Thank you to everyone who is taking part in the walk and to all those who have sponsored us so generously. Photos of the walkers in their lovely yellow tee shirts ( sponsored by Warwick Emanuel PR and Film) will be on here soon.
